Front fork stanchions / front mudguard

Hi all, due to a coming together of myself / Morini and immovable object I need some 35mm stanchions and front mudguard for my 81 500 Sport. Anyone got any to assist in a rapid return to the road ?
Steve.

Re: 250 Settebello

That’s a beauty ! Can’t understand a word though ! Fancy one myself after riding my mates 175 Tresette, and the extra cc’s make it more attractive. However you know the saying “ if it sounds too good to be true “ 🤔

Ben Wylie

Very sad news that Ben Wylie, 42, co owner of Moto Hub, Stoke, was killed on his Morini last Wednesday morning in North Shropshire in a collision with a van. He raced various motorcycles over the years, was the Bimota importer at one time, and the son of the Wylie’s of Wylie and Holland Motorcycles ...

Re: LAVERDA JOTA 50th ANNIVERSARY EVENT

Hi Jen, I spoke to the owner of the 500 Morini, he told me he had got it from Denmark. Somebody may know the bike or him ? Unfortunately I’ve forgotten his name but he said he also has a MV Augusta 750S. I was parked in the garden area, red Laverda Jarama sporting a red tank bag. I left just after M...

I do remember that Bike magazine. It’s hard to speak to Kieth these days after his starring role in this month’s Classic Bike. He’s become a bit of a Prima Donna ! :D

Re: LAVERDA JOTA 50th ANNIVERSARY EVENT

I agree with you ref. big Laverda’s and the scarcity of parts for the 500. Better than a Morini 500 ? Having never ridden one I’ll take your word for it ! A mate of mine in our village has a Montjuic which I followed for 65 miles back from a similar event last August. It was possibly my most memorab...

Re: LAVERDA JOTA 50th ANNIVERSARY EVENT

“ OR any event you think Morini enthusiasts would be interested in “. I know several Morini owners with Laverda’s. I’ll try anything to get people out on their bikes even BMW’s,🥱 😉 . Laverda’s, especially the triples are a heavyweightl beast that provides a bull in a china shop visceral experience a...

LAVERDA JOTA 50th ANNIVERSARY EVENT

If you fancy a day out on Sunday and are in the Cotswolds area come along to this “do”. 200 - 300 Laverda’s expected and will probably be the last time this many Laverda’s are in one location. I will be giving my 500 Sport the day off and will be heading over on my Laverda triple.

Re: Timing belt question

Got last Conti belt from RS Component's in January. Only £7.70 and fits a treat. No distinguishing mark on my pulley that I can see.
