MRC Forum- brought to you by www.morini-riders-club.com

Hi everyone. With great regret I will not be able to join you on Mona's Isle due to health issues and family circumstances. As a founder member that floated the idea of a MRC 50th Anniversary celebration at the classic TT I feel really guilty for bailing out of the trip. I can only hope that all go...

i've got a dart engine in a 1976 350 drum braked sport , it fits perfectly , i did not modify the frame. the original ducati ignition even fits. just one of the front brackets between the engine and the frame needs modifying to clear the starter motor. nice to have a reliable electric start by the ...

does anyone know if a Corsaro exhaust pipe would fit a 125H/ New copies of the silencer for the 125H are available from two vendors in Italy. Here are the current links: https://www.brezzisamuele.com/it/home-page/marmitte/moto-morini-125-cc-mod-h-ss-marmitta-scarico.1.12.5.gp.121.uw https://www.mot...

I agree with Steve, thank you for the article and the photo of the intriguing exhaust. Will we see you out on the trails on it?

A morini owner who lives nearby has an Elbymoto tank with the modified bottom section to clear the turbo. I think he's modified slightly for one of his project bikes. If someone is particularly interested in it for whatever reason let me know and I'll ask e.g. in case someone would like to make a co...

I've had a 501 engine without (senza) the starter motor in my K1 frame for about 20 years. It uses the kokusan ignition system and the 501's exhaust system. It has the older left hand clutch cover from a 3 1/2 and a kick starter with the kickstart extender to clear the tarozzi rearsets. I modified t...

I recently rode my 250 2C 2550 kms to Southern Ireland and back home. I had similar 8-stroking issues on it before I left. I fitted some brand new square throttle slides, i.e. 7447-50 with a 50 (5mm) cut away in place of the standard 7447-40 slides. I left the needle jets in the same middle position...

Hi, do you have any straight 500 rears available? Cosmetic condition immaterial as I need to get the front refurbished anyway. There's one on eBay currently, relisted as it didn't sell the first time https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/135662825158 PS: The seller also has a 250/125 rear wheel available http...

Thank you for the information about the Italian Club's 36th Morini Day (weekend). I've looked on https://www.morinispecial.it/ and can see the same information, how can people register for this please?

A quick update from me and my Wallaby/Joey project... I bought a couple of incomplete Honda XR125L's at a local auction house. Their front forks are 31mm diameter - slightly thinner than the 31.75mm (1 1/4") ones fitted to the 250 2C. They have more travel, roughly 6" and a 19" spoked...

Hi, how did the roller work out? I’ve been trying to fathom out what a noise on my bike was - suspect it’s the original looking chain wheel - seems pretty loose fitting so not sure the spacers are fitted. Thought I would check before I started ordering bits from Italy! Thanks, Simon The new bearing...

I have a complete X2 exhaust. The downpipes are somewhat corroded, but functional, the silencers are stainless steel.

I've recently fitted an X2's petrol tank on my Kanguro X. I did this to reduce the risk of running out of petrol on the MCC long distance trials that include riding through the night and day as I ran out on the Lands End Challenge in Easter 2024 because one of the petrol stations on the route map wa...

May have missed a Kanguroo? No, Julian was in a different class (he's often said that!) so didn't do worst hills. The maniac did ride there and back home afterwards though! Yes, I was riding in Class O which is aimed at newcomers to the full set of off-road sections or those with sensitive vehicles...
