Re: RIP Rob Kenton

Rob was an active club member from its earliest days and I met him a number of times at rallies more recently. This is terrible news and he'll be missed by many people.

Re: OK, who wants a...

Steve, I don't think it's advertising, more recommending a valuable source of parts for deserving Morini owners.

Re: Shepton Mallet Show

There's just been official confirmation from the show organisers that this weekend's event has been cancelled. They hope to rearrange for a date in late February. What a shame!

Shepton Mallet Show

Don't forget that it's the year's first big classic show in the UK this weekend at Shepton Mallet near Bath. The MRC will have a stand as usual, with an interesting selection of Morinis and a knowledgeable group of people on the stand to chat to and discuss all things Morini. Wrap up warm!

Re: Tarozzi high-rise clipons

I had them fitted to my Strada for a couple of years, tightened as well as I could with the relevant large Allen key. They stayed exactly where they should.

Sorry I can't help, but if you get more than one offer, please let me know as I also need an early Strada footrest. Thanks, Mark.

Re: Lincs. Italian Motorcycle Festival, Saturday 15th June.

Thanks Chris: definitely one for the diary. I wonder if the Guzzi V8 will be louder than Just Jane?

And my BSA was only 6 years old when I was born, and now it qualifies for a free bus pass!
