Re: 350 Strada for sale

Sorry chirpy 999 I've received several pm's since I first posted the advert but not one from yourself.
Might be best to wait till after the weekend now as it looks like someone may be coming to have a look at her.

Re: 350 Strada for sale

Now with 12 months tax and mot, looking for £1700 for a quick sale to save me the bother of ebay.
There has been some interest from the list but no viewings arranged yet.

Parts List for 250 single

I have a parts list for the 250 single, bought it from the Netherlands Morini Club. Diagrams with parts listed in both dutch and english.
Sold the bike some time ago so parts list no longer required. Say £5 including postage.
Regards, Neil.

Re: Seat height

Hi John, your comments about body weight on the base of the spine is really what my problem is, lower back pain. I ride a trailie style 250 to work during the week and whenever I get on the Strada the riding position feels very cramped. When (if!) we get any fine weather I'll have a ride to NLM and ...

Re: Seat height

Right, so which has the higher seat height, round tube or rectangular? I like the look of the earlier round tube models but consider the later models to be be an improved design (brakes, electrics etc).

Re: Seat height

I'm not sure what you are suggesting Paul. I thought the gear linkage was fitted because with an electric starter the normal gear lever wouldn't fit. I've already got standard footpegs and brake lever. What I'm really looking for is more seat height from the ground and from the footpeg and a more up...

Re: Seat height

'82 Strada fitted with gear linkage. Is it possible to fit a normal (extended?) gear lever on the shaft and get rid of the linkage?

Hi, I am (still) considering selling my Strada and buying a Kanguro in the hope that the riding positon is more comfortable. Could someone measure the height from ground to top of the seat on a Kanguro, and also the height from the top of the footpeg to the top of the seat. I will then be able to co...

Yes, message received, just composing a reply. I've noticed the same problem, messages appear to be in your outbox even though they've actually been sent.

Re: Suitable Clothing

As a non leathers rider I've always worn textile type clothing. Most has or can be fitted with protectors. Draggin Jeans and Hood Jeans are lined with Kevlar and I know the Hood Jeans can be fitted with knee & hip protectors although they are not neccesarily waterproof. It seems to me that the r...
