Praise from Bike magazine

Post by MarkB »

In the latest copy of Bike magazine, the staff are asked what bike they'd buy if they weren't spending their time enjoying themselves on borrowed machines. Tony Hoare, Deputy Editor, says: "Half an hour on a Moto Morini Corsaro 1200 and there won't be room between my ears for anything else. The chassis is challenging, but its 1200cc v-twin is a ripper, engaging in every sense. What an engine." (Page 145, April issue).

I've just spent a fabulous two hours on my 3 1/2 Strada - what a little ripper!

Cheers, Mark.

Hi Mark;

Thanks for that tip - I'll have to look the comment out.

Engaging as the 3.5 is, the big Corsaro would get my vote every time... You'll have to try one! :lol:

Yes - just a little more reasonable than a Rebello, although a little dated now, as it has the early brake and clutch cylinder as opposed to the later radial version. I've also gone for the shiny pipe option, so we'll see how long they last. I'm not a great fan of cleaning bikes - if the sun's shining I'd want to be riding...

Good riding,
