Urals need to be throughly warmed up before riding, old technology engine. As far as the revving, I'd Check for vacuum leaks at the
Carburator with some carb cleaner while idling, and if that's not it, I'd check the choke.
That can mean there is high blow-by internally in the engine. It can also mean an internal leak from a crack in the block, cylinder wall, piston, piston ring, ect. How does it run? I have seen some older bikes "blow" a little but keep a close eye on oil level and check spark plugs for heavy fowling.
First check the screw in the shift arm that exits the transmission. If it's come loose consider a dab of locktite. You can also try replacing the gear oil with a high quality synthetic product. Many claim that this makes shifting smoother, and if you are in a hot climate and also pulling a side car, then I would use a synthetic 80W145 transmission oil. If the bike has many miles, I'd look at worn gear selector mechanisms - starting with external linkages, and then, if needed and only after checking everything else, the internal ones. Alternately there's a chance this could be from a dragging clutch. If the clutch is worn, or if a spline lube is due, then that might be the culprit. Many basic problems and solutions are common with BMW airheads (which is what I own) so you might find lots more information and suggestions at those websites. This might be a good place: http://www.airheads.org/forum/technical-discussions
Your cycle runs when you pull off one spark plug wire per cylinder. There are two spark plugs per cylinder and you did not remove both . Therefore you still have one spark plug on each cylinder firing to run the machine. Your motorcycle is also equipped with a side stand safety switch. Your bike will run on the side stand . But, if you put the bike in gear with the side stand down it is designed to turn off the motor. This is so you do not drive away with the stand down and loose control of the motorcycle on your first left hand turn. Get in the habit of putting your side stand up before putting the bike in gear and your problem is solved. Read your owners manual.
Suzuki makes a synthetic oil for under $10 a quart. Make sure the oil you use is JASO MA certified motorcycle oil.Do not use any oil that is Energy Conserving it will shorten the life of your wet clutch and transmission gears. Synthetic oil will help the bike run cooler and shift easier in hot weather riding.
