Back in the mid 1980’s one of my friends in the Centaurs MCC had a Moto Morini 3 1/2 and I have fond memories of a blast back from Wales with him and another lad (on a GPz1100). I was riding a RD250LC and while the Morini wasn’t the fastest thing in a straight line, it could slice a neat line through the bends! Happy days. Well the proud old Morini brand has had a turbulent 30 years since then, but it seems the good times are back. The brand is available in the UK again, and it is back with a bang! A V twin, 140bhp bang! A new dealership in Worcestershire is now representing the brand and I popped in to take a look last week. I have to say the CORSARO 1200 ZZ looks rather special….

Corsaro, looking suitably mean….
