Hello all fellow Morini riders and fans,
Well, the Morini, on its shakedown break-in run after the winter refurbish, set a new el Mirage record for gasoline powered pushrod non-streamlined 350 bikes yesterday....
108.47 MPH or 174.57 KPH (whichever you prefer)....
I took off easy and shifted early (7500 rpm) through the lower gears to make sure everything seemed ok.... She pulled right up to 105 mph with me sitting upright while tooling down the course...
With the finish line looming I tucked down on the tank and eased up to 108mpn as I crossed the line.....
350 Morinis Rule !

Congratulations Robert!
All that hard work over winter paid off.
are you moving on to any other classes with the 350?
The 'Guzzi springs to mind...
