The airhawk system is quite popular in Australia. They are used in aviation and mining as well. The importer gives us a 60 day free trial he's so confident of the product.

Guvo,
Thanks for that. I will have to take another look at the Veloce. Just a few more queries. Did you consider the Benelli TNT? Also, how do you rate the Morini seat and riding position?
Ian

Guvo, I looked at the Corsaro Veloce in 2007 and decided that the buyers were doing the development work supported by warranty, so I purchased a 2006 Ducati 999s. I would still like to have a Veloce if I knew that the reliability was improved. Are the current models definitely improved? Also, is fue...

Curtis,
Please keep us posted on how you find the bike. I guess you'll have to run it in before you can work out how it is on fuel. What was the Tuono like on fuel? Regards,
Ian

Steve, Thanks for your frank facts, they summarize my thoughts about that model. As I said it would be good to hear from a late 2007 owner. I would like to see what you would get as trade in on a new 1200. The latest 9 1/2 thread implies 42 mpg for fuel consumption which is much better than your fig...

Steve-55,
What year is your bike and what mileage have you got up. I am still trying to find out if the 2008 models have the problems of the earlier bikes fixed or not. I'm not considering buying the Veloce until I find out. Regards,
Ian

Carpe,
Your idea is a good one! I have a friend in Mandello who may be able to help. He machines Brembo parts for the factory and likes his bikes. I will e-mail him. By the way does the Corsaro have Brembo wheels?
Ian

Trevor, I am trying to track down the Corsaro owner in Gladstone to see how his bike is going. From the number of views that thread has it would be good to hear opinions/stories etc. Also, no comment from the trade....rather interesting given that they should be pushing a bit for the product. Regard...

Michael, I have been on the " Corsaro vs Veloce " thread and I am interested in the specifics and history of your problems ie what year is your bike? What mileage etc and what is going wrong? I agree that these are low volume motorcycles, but they are high Dollar/ Pound/ Euro for what you ...

Trevor, I tried to contact Clayton at Powersports but it turns out that he is in China--probably for the Benelli side of things. I spoke to Paul who is the director of the company.I told him about this site and my concerns regarding the post put in by Michael in the other thread. The first shipment ...

Carpe, Great photo, there's only one or two places over here like that and only at certain times of the year. How did the bike run? Trevor, Chris returned with the info that the prices aren't rising, I tried to contact the manager ( Clayton 0419 228 340) of Powersports yesterday but his phone was of...

Trevor, You probably need to consider resale of the Multistrada as well, there is a few on Bikepoint and Bikesales( or was last time I looked). I spoke to Chris Pickett from Cycle Torque yesterday. He said that the Corsaro is the best bike he tested in 2008 and more comfortable than the 91/2 MM. I p...

Trevor, I think the price of the Veloce is as high as it should be. The price of the Corsaro is $22,000 plus on roads. That price is about 9800 British pounds, which is higher that what Chris mentioned earlier. If the price of the veloce is going to be higher than it is now at $24,000 then I will ha...

Chris, Thanks for the info. The service intervals suggest that Morini are keen to make sure their motors are right. The starting problem didn't occur in the recent test here in Australia. They were expecting a problem but there were no glitches and the mapping seems perfect. Looks like there will be...

Trevor, I am waiting for the dealers to get back to the shops so I can find out a bit more. I reckon that I have more info from here than they will supply. I still want to know about the service intervals, headlights and accessories and availability etc. It looks like that there is about 3 months be...
