Re: Rear suspension

There was a technical bulletin on very early bikes up to frame number 3400 to replace the spacer bushes on the shock pivot. The bulletin can be seen in the members area at the below link. Not sure if that’s related to your problem but worth a look if yours is an early bike https://www.morini-riders-...

Re: another new Sport owner 76 or 77?

Mine has 35mm marzocchis. If you can’t find a strada top yoke (or to keep that sport character a little) consider the tarozzi clip on bar risers, like the ones below: https://www.discovolantemoto.co.uk/Tarozzi-adjustable-clipons-high Also keep in mind the bars are 22mm- wouldn’t want to change your ...

Re: Spanner for metal intake manifolds

Yes, will do. I have both the holder George made and the c spanner for tightening the castellated nut. I bought the below c spanner set too, the larger one is no use on a Morini but the smaller one does the exhaust nut on one end and the intake nut on the other so it’s very useful. https://www.ebay....

Re: Chain slider

This is a great initiative and definitely something we should be doing to keep morinis on the road. We have a committee meeting next week so I will raise it. 200 sliders may take a while to sell, but there is a shortage of dart sliders so if we could make some of those too that might make it an even...

Re: I need your help

Sadly local decent automotive factors are becoming a thing of the past. Nowhere near me so I bought my last lot of fuses from EBay. If you search for ‘automotive bullet fuse’ you’ll find what you need. The fuses in the fuse holder should be tight. Often these go sloppy over time which doesn’t help w...

Re: What else got a solenoid-operated petcock?

Some Guzzis of the era had the same Orlandi solenoid operated fuel tap.

The club is currently looking into getting new diaphragms manufactured, in a modern fuel proof rubber.

Watch this space (and please let me know if anyone reading this is interested in one so we can gauge demand)

Re: Do I have an ignition problem

When your last stator burnt out, Mark asked where the riveted on keeper plate had gone.

I can’t really see in your most recent photo but it’s not obvious that that fault has been rectified. Can you post a few more pictures of that area?

Re: Battery

I’m guessing your query is because you’re having starting issues? Most decent modern batteries (especially AGM butteries like the odyssey) will have higher cranking capacity than anything available when these bikes were new. However no matter how good your battery, it all struggle to start if the en...

No, only Moto Morinis- it’s what we have records and expertise for, which is what the DVLA recognise
