That looks nice and should find a new home without too much bother.

Sorry I don't but am sure they both advertise in the classic press or online. Rupert should be contactable through this forum-I think?

Sorry to hear what happened to your Morini! Not recoverable I guess or you couldn't face doing the work all over again? My bike is still here and I can't believe it either. I think I'm giving up trying now, the only replies I've had want pictures and then I hear nothing more. Maybe they all want imm...

I sure the pistons remained the same. When you get the new rings check that they are the correct depths in the grooves in the piston, a nice fit up and down in the grooves too. A comparison ring gap check is a good idea too. The old rings might also be lacking a bit of spring tension against the bor...

I should think that loctite is ok. Careful when tightening the locking ring though, if overdone the stub can shear off!
Happened to someone I know...

Hi Judy, not Wilts but how about someone like 'Rupes rewires' (a member of this club too) or there is a chap by the name of Ferret who does this as a mobile job. I haven't used either but know they have both been busy for a while.

The older type piston rings did have a spring behind the oil scraper on one piston only. I never really understood why but the later types did not have this feature, but the rings were of course updated and more like most other manufacturers did. Neither type gave any trouble I am aware of. Wellseal...

Thanks for your work chaps! I wouldn't have a clue how to deal with it.

I can't remember what length plug thread you'll need but in the NGK range I'd suggest a 6 will be about right. So short reach = B6HS and long reach = B6ES. If you find yourself A Tutto Gas absolutely everywhere a 7 might run a little cooler.

The Green Lane section of the MRC will be having another ride-out on Sunday October 26th. We have places for a couple more and preference will be given to members bringing their Morini. Let me know if you're interested in joining us for a non-frightening (mostly) bimble around the lanes of Leicester...

No. Or at least they weren't originally. What can happen is the stand itself bends, or the frame tube twists where the stand bracket is welded. Usually because people sit on them while the bike is parked or spend ages kickstarting a duff bike while it's on the stand.

WANTED- a Strada top yoke. If I can find one of these there is a chance my bike can be bought by a good mate local to me. I have ordered him NOT to drill the Sport yoke for handlebar clamps!
Happy to swap my Sport top yoke if that helps?

Price dropped again! I'm now asking only £3750! So get your fingers out please-I'll probably take it to Newark Autojumble this weekend (14th Sept) along with my T500 Suzuki and my van which are also for sale.

I need to do this to complete my other Morini projects and I am not giving up on Morini-OK?

A small bundle of the stands from Italy arrived in the UK recently. Most I'm sure were pre-ordered and spoken for. Could be worth asking on the Green Lane Whatsapp group if anyone is sitting on a spare one? Are these from Mauro Steve? If so, you already have them ;) Yes, from Mauro. They arrived in...
