Morinis & Motorcycles - Is there anything else?
Re: 350 sport just delivered
I hope that road was bone dry, Peter. I didn't let you have her just to get the underneath of the mudguards all wet and mucky
All the best. Steve

Re: 350 sport just delivered
You ought to have a go on this bugger when it's finished, Peter. You'll be pleased to know that brass from the Morini is now helping to fund it. Still a long , expensive way to go, but I got all the paintwork done before the end of summer, and got the engine to a stage where it can go back into the frame a couple of days ago. New Amal carb arrived today so tomorrows job will be to polish that.
I have been trying to assess whether the sideboard would take the engine as it seems such a shame to get it all oily
As rescued - Painted
The 'powerplant' - it weighs nearly as much as the 3 1/2 even though it looks like 1/2 a 3 1/2
Regards. Steve

Re: 350 sport just delivered
I'll let you do the negotiating with the EPO (Enjoyment Prevention Officer), Peter - you seem to have the knack

Re: 350 sport just delivered
There is something very pleasing about a Panther. I always remember being behind one In Bristol in about 1977. We were held up by roadworks, the rider dismounted and lit a cigarette, whilst the bike just ticked over very slowly. I shall refrain from making remarks about oily patches as I was on a T150 myself.

Re: 350 sport just delivered
The Panther is almost ready for the road now, John. This was the bike last Monday after I'd collected it from Alldens Exhausts in Lincolnshire having had a set of stainless pipes made. Just the final few tweaks and polishing of the odd nut and bolt left to do. Gonna be a shame to get it mucky after all this I had hoped to get it out later this week but the buggers were out and about with the salt again last night
This was what I started with last June
Good to hear that the Morini is still getting a lick of cherishment now and again, tb1
Stay safe, folks. Steve
