RE: A tourist adventure safari, with a difference.

If I've understood correctly, you recognized the two bikes as Harley Davidson. But I have to contradict you. Harley Davidson only builds V2 engines, but these motorcycles have boxer engines. As far as I know only 2 brands build such engines BMW and Ural. What you have photographed are 2 modern Ural sidecars. But how Ural (Russia) got the BMW (Germany) boxer engines is also a very exciting story.

Thank you for the correction, and I only assumed that they were Harleys. No time to concentrate on the engines, but I should have taken a photo of it.
The story about how Russia got the German boxer engines, sounds very interesting. !LOL
