Micheal;

Would like to suggest that you send your bit to the club mag, ATG - any problems?

You deserve a medal!!! Get to the MRC Cadwell Track Day in July and they'll give you one :wink:

Good riding :D

Guys; To answer the question - the Avio test was in the early May MCN "When Less is More". The tester was very impressed with the bike, reckoning that the "gentler" motor was easier to control than the standard Corsaro. THere is likely to be a test in the next MCS&L or simila...

All; Out of interest - when I asked the UK importer what he'd give me for the Corsaro in exchange for a Veloce, he said, and I quote, "If you're serious, wait for the Gran Passo..." So, I'm waiting for the GP.. :) But in the interim - enjoying the Corsaro - with little petrol smells etc as...

According to Steve 55 on another thread there were 67 registered up to the end of last year. Ther are a dozen dealers with demonstrators so there are probably around 50 in private ownership. I've run an interview with KD of 3X, which the editor of ATG might run in the next issue (once I've typed it....

"Less can be More"

3X's Avio tested in the latest issue of MCN. Nice pictures, good test. Better than the standard Corsaro?

Now there's a challenge! :?

Everybody; Looks like we will have existing Morini riders at each of the chosen dealers, and machines to ride as well. For example, the new Avio is available for demo at 3X, and looks very smart in Red and Black. Participating dealers; 3X at Three Legged Cross, Verwood, Dorset NLM at Ellistown, Leic...

NLM advertised their last one at £2,100 - so a private sale would be likely to less than that. You could see if they would be interested in it?

Dean;

Check out the North Leicester web site - link from th eclub page. They advertise them sometimes, there was one on there recently. Some-one might want to bike for the 500 engine, so expect some haggling!

You can also adverise in the club magazine, ATG.

Good luck

I've had my Corsaro for almost two years now, and have done 7,500 miles. It's been to the Isle of Man twice, around the south quite a bit and parked near to Curtis' Veloce at the Bristol Italia Auto fair last week!!! It has had all the updates, and a North Leicester oil guard - essential. I really l...

Morini Day looks like it could be fun - now we need a couple of volunteers for the Yorkshire and South Wales dealers... :) Anyone out there from those areas (apart from Curtis, who will hopefully be able to get along to Real World?) Red Dog had said that they'd put something on for us - if we know l...

Ah! THe Hop Pole - when Morinis with wire wheels were the only ones made, and half that we saw were drum braked... Now that is going back to my youth (and yours, eh :wink: !) There was a chap from Frome who had done over 20k miles on his, Andy I think he was called, and he could ride it as well - a ...

Thorkill; Given that the event is "supported" by the Ducati club, a row of bikes just out of the showroom shouldn't surprise. At least they were kept out of the way... Five Morinis at one place at one time is good for us - but why don't we aim for twice as many next year? After all, last y...
