Re: ‘S’ on left side of 1981 3 1/2 Sport
It wouldn't be unheard of for there to have been a mistake in stamping by the factory. It's possible that an engine builder in the past rebuilt the engine to Sport specification and whilst wanting to indicate Sport didn't want to fake it? Seems unlikely to me. You could measure the valve timing to s...

Replaced with a modified BMW S1000 tail t...

ABBA stand for Milano and SuperScrambler
For the 1200 Milano and Superscrambler the mighty ABBA stand can be used, whilst it is not listed on ABBAs fitment list, all that is needed is fitting kit 063 (which is actually the same as X-cape 650 although sides are swapped) No more struggling with wonky paddock stands. These are rock solid. Bac...

Re: Gear selector clearance to casing
Tom, My 2021 1200 Superscrambler has only the neutral sensor plate, the remaining gears are calculated. Occasionally it displays a dash - for unknown gear, but usually it's correct. There are two wheel speed sensors front and rear for the ABS. Disconnecting the neutral sensor connection doesn't affe...

Re: Insurance premium renewal jollies
My wife added our daughter aged 25 but with 7 years claim free record as a named driver on her car policy and the premium went down. We thought we would try our son 22 with 3 years no claims and they wanted another 170 quid. Use plenty of anonymous and incognito browser sessions and keep trying, yea...

Re: Insurance premium renewal jollies
The Mysteries of insurance. I had a standalone policy for my 350, as well as having a modern bike policy. When the modern bike (1200) policy came up for renewal I added the classic bike to that policy. I got a refund on the unused months of the classic bike policy, the policy was about 130 quid (wit...

Re: Morini Newby / cambelt question
If you look at https://www.real-classic.co.uk/2015/08/31/morini_cambelt_swap_video_002/ and at the caption labelled "When the new belt is fitted, check that the top pulley and crankcase mark are still lined up, and that the keyway is in line with the lower crankcase mark." that is exactly...

Re: Morini Newby / cambelt question
Hi, Welcome to the joys of Morini ownership. Can you post a picture of what you think is the problem please. The dot on the upper cam pinion should align with the 12 o'clock notch at the crankcase. Then at TDC front cylinder in Italiano Punto Motore Superiore or PMS1 the crankshaft key way should al...

Re: classic bike tyres
That´s the way it is. Does anyone use a computer or smart phone made or designed in GB or Europa? Since quite a long time people are drinking tea that has not grown in a british garden. Maybe the diference is that now the rules of the old european conolizacion are not accepted anymore in great part...

Re: Wanted: journeys on a moto morini
Great photos Richard. Tales for ATg please. Back then we didn't have YouTube experts and influencers to tell us what we must have, and what we must not do :shock: No one ever booked anything in advance as you couldn't really. Most of us took spares and tools and some knowledge of how to fix things. ...

Re: Wanted: journeys on a moto morini
We are planning to go to Morano in 2025, haven't been since 96. My venerable 350 sport has travelled far and would be great to go again but alas the comfort is not there even with inverted bars, for 2000 mile trip. To take the 1200 for comfort but the fuel consumption is not good and the range is po...

Re: Tyre pressures?
Hi Richard Original Sebac shocks 310mm between centres, replacement Marzocchi also 310mm. 10mm wouldn't make much difference would it, especially as shocks are not vertical? Personally i would go for a medium grade fork oil which is 10W but this is really down to personal choice on how you like the ...

Does anyone know the correct adjustment procedure for these spoke nipples with what looks like a little circular spring to avoid subsequent leak,workshop manual has no information. The wheel has the angled tubeless valve we are confi...
