I have posted this in the Kanguro section but as I have changed it to a full road going version I thought you tre e mezzo guys might be interested.
Well after just over a year of building my frankenstein Morini is completed. I purchased the 1984 Morini Kanguro X1 350 in May 06 and have been mutilating it ever since. Combining parts from the best bikes in the world I now have a machine with comprising of parts from Moto Morini, Ducati, Husqvarna, BMW, Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki, KTM, Yamaha, Royal Enfield and even a shim in the clutch from a Rover Mini ball joint!!
This is what it started as>

After a day I had what I wanted from the Morini>

And this is the final result>

The headlamp nacelle was my nod to the Manx Norton, I needed something to fill the gap between the headlamp and the forks and hide all the wiring and relays as there is not room under the seat.

The casing below just over week ago had a 2 inch hole in it when the flywheel nut came off during a test run, thanks to JB Weld and my local Morini parts shop 100 miles away I repaired it in a week>

Due to the Husqvarna forks and Suzuki Bandit wheel not getting on I could not fit the Suzuki speedo drive. So I fitted a Trailtech Vapor, absolute top piece of kit, also used the Morini ignition switch and as I rewound the alternator coils myself fitted a Royal Enfield ammeter to keep an eye on them>


The Ducati 996 silencers sounds and look good, also they tuck away nicely. I made the tail fairing from a sheet of perforated stainless steel using a vice mounted sheet metal bender.The fuel tank is from an 80's Honda FT500 known as the Ascot in the US and the rear light is from a Suzuki Hayabusa!>


The seat is a heavily modified single seat from a BMW R850R, I also recovered it in leather, assisted by my local shoe repairer who glued and stitched the patchwork of pieces for me to staple on>

Final views show the distinctive Morini 3 1/2 badge fitted to the road going Sport & Strada 350's of the 70's and the front end sporting the Ducati 996 brembo 4 pot caliper and Ducati monster mudguard with my homemade bracket fastened to a Micron aluminium fork brace>


After some de-snagging have removed the shrouds from the airfilters and fitted an old cutdown fork gaitor to each filter to prevent turbulence affecting performance. Refitted rear brake caliper after 2 bolts fell out!! and refitted the original lower chain roller after my new replacement also fell off!!. I do own a torque wrench and stud lock but have maybe missed a few bits over the year. Hope you like, the engine runs well, first time start on first kick. The ducati pipes sound good will post video soon.
