Still intrigued by this designer Oberdan Bezzi, who has done several designs for the 1200 Moto Morini engine.
Looking on the web I cannot find a specific website for him, but check out the images on Google some good stuff and very specific to each manufacturer.
Do I need to move this thread? :?:

This is timeless, clearly using MM heritage with crisp lines and modern equipment. My wife asked me "What's special about that, that makes it different to any other motorcycle?"
Comments please, one liners accepted.

Wow. i know you should never look back, but that is rather nice. But, the reason like the older Morinis is because they are simple and perform well, just like me really..... maybe a new engine is required? A 600 with 60 to 70 bhp and 60+ mpg?

Hi Mike

Chop one of the cylinders off of the 1200 and you're almost there, said the amateur engineer. :roll:
I don't know if you have seen the Deus EX Machina website. it's an OZ company that use simple engines (400 Yam, W650 Kwac etc) in basic frames, go and have a look if you haven't.

Off to Northampton tomorrow on the Corsaro, got some work to do in the in laws house. Will take the A6 all the way to Shap, Buxton top, Bakewell, Matlock, Derby, really looking forward to it.
There is a trip from Kendall over to the East coast shortly, Last May Bank Holiday, I fancy going, Hawes, Pickering, do you what to meet somewhere? Perhaps you could persuade some more Pirates along? It's with the Cumbria Branch of Moto Guzzi.

Hi George,

Which day over the Bank Holiday? We have 2 days off I believe, first week in June.

I could meet you near Thirsk as you will probably be coming on the A684. Let me ask the Director of Household Services and I'll let you know. I'm away the weekend before in Dijon, so need to ask for another pass.

Might be worth posting in Morini Events in case anybody else is interested.

Enjoy the ride to Northampton, weather warming up apparently.

Mike.
