It is a Ural. Did you know Brad Pitt rides a Ural? Now you know!

I work at Ural Canada/ Peterborough Cycle, so I see them all the time, no doubt in my mind that it's one

Because of Cuba's communist relationship with the former Soviet republic you see lots of Urals (captured east german BMW technology from the 40's) and Jawa ,CZ , Lietner and the odd Dnepr (ukraine- connection to Ural). Some Sachs running around as France was a trading partner.

Around Havana you can find a collection of Harley riders, nothing newer than mid fifties. They have a biker subculture thats pretty interesting.

There are a few late model Chinese 2 strokes running around based on 70's yamaha 350's

Its really a trip if your into motor technology, you get a 2yr old Peuguot sedan parked beside an International 2 ton truck taking a family to church. Horses compete on the expressway with Mercedes buses.

Cuba is wild when it comes to the classics.

There's also a bunch of chinese knock-offs of the same pre-WWII BMW model.
