IMZ-Ural (Russian: Ирбитский мотоциклетный завод, romanized: Irbitskiy Mototsikletniy Zavod, lit. 'Irbit Motorcycle Factory') is the manufacturer of Ural sidecar motorcycles. In 1940, the Soviet Union acquired the design and production techniques for BMW R71 motorcycles and sidecars. The first M-72 model was finished in 1941. Originally, factories were to be located in Moscow, Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg), and Kharkiv, but due to the approach of Nazi German troops, the Moscow facilities were moved to Irbit, and the Leningrad and Kharkiv facilities to Gorkiy (now called Nizhny Novgorod).
