don't know much about urals but the enfields are fantastic.
the chassis is a strong as you could ever need, 80mpg easily, relaxed 50mph cruising for the 350, and about as complicated as a knife and fork.
they need regular tweaking but will always run.
i got my 350 enfield stuck in a river crossing in just over 2 foot of water. i pulled it out the other side, took the points cover off (to let them dry), and kicked it over with the decompressor held down (to clear any water in the pot). after that it went 3rd kick and ticked over after 5 seconds.
running sweetly less than a minute after leaving the water!
one concern with urals would be the weight. in some conditions you have no choice but to push, and i'd rather push a lightweight enfield.
