LOOKING FOR MY 1983 MORINI 3 1/2 SPORT

Post by Llasrun »

Hi

I bought a new Morini 3 1/2 Sport back in 1983 registration DTJ 714Y (red) and would love to find it and purchase it back if possible. I bought it from a bike shop in Bootle, Liverpool UK.

When I sold it in around 1987 it had a few small modifications: - a new seat (grey with black sides/trim), machine turned footrests, wheels sprayed black (previously gold), and a nice chrome downpipe cover, it was in excellent condition at that time.

I've done a DVLA search and see that it was last MOT'd in 2017 with around 37000 miles on the clock and is currently SORN.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Liz

Good luck finding it. I don't have it among my moto morinis (3 and a spare frame without documents which I hope isn't from your bike).

Don't give up too easily! I managed to get my old bike back by asking on here. It took a fair while as the then owner had stopped using the bike and not renewed his membership. Eventually he either looked in here or someone tipped him off and I bought it back. So this can work out :)
