I was visible, but sadly only on video freeze frame right at the beginning, but I do have a photo of me in the Top Gear chair!

Can they be shifted by connecting up the master cylinder, filling it and pumping as per using it or is the caliper in 2 parts? if so then reassembling and doing so might still be easiest. If they are split then one way that is often suggested is to use a footpump with one of those tapered adaptors f...

Those who stay the full weekend will be pleased to know that we have the use of the Golf Arms again this year.

Not really a Morini event due to J. Clarksons rampant bikophobia, but I managed to sneak onto the set of I think this weeks programme wearing a factory Morini Tee shirt. Record and watch it on slow replay to see if you can catch the only Morini advert you are likely to see on TV this year, not that ...

I can confirm that there will as always be an MRC stand at the BMF. It would be great if any members could come along to man the stand for a couple of hours to help out.

The teeth came off this...

I use pattern belts at well under a tenner, at that price you can afford to change them regularly. I would be interested to hear when the last batch of genuine belts were produced for Morinis and how long they have spent on the shelf. Most engines now will have accumulated some more tolerances and s...

Italian bike day at the Ace Cafe this year is Sunday 7th May - Anybody going? What chance a good Morini turnout, or even a new Corsaro?

I'm guessing the bike used in the test in Bike this month on a ride to the Millau bridge is the one I rode on trade plates before Christmas for ATG. HF55 JXO - in 30 years time you will be as famous as GOC 249N!

Dates for hillclimbs at Gurston Down near Salisbury. A great day out if you like looking at a variety of non standard bikes and cars. It actually has a class for 350cc bikes! Saturday 27th May 2006 Practise for the first visit of contenders in the 2006 British Hillclimb and Leaders Championships, an...
