Hello. Simon here. Joined the club about a year ago, had never ridden a Morini, but had a plan. I remember reading the reviews in UBG, seeing the odd 3 1/2 on the road and saying one day I’ll try one and see. Fast forward about 30 years. So found a K3 Sport a few months ago and was hooked. The Sport has now been joined by a later Strada. I’ve had all sorts in those years from sports bikes, trail and old classic Brit Iron, but it feels like I’ve finally found the right bike! Based in Wiltshire.

Thought I'd better pop in & say hello after getting back on a Morini after 17yrs away. My Morini history - Older brother had a 350 sport & then a 500 maestro from late 70s until late 80s, I then bought the 500 (TTR5T) from him which I kept until 1992 before buying a house & getting a Guzzi lemans V, can't quite remember when I got another 500 but ended up getting two because one was a bit troublesome, then 2006 came around & I sold them both to finance a Guzzi Centauro V10. Then in 2023 Motohub tempted me back with a delicious 1200 Scrambler - my what a bike :D So far I've managed to get to a Morini ride out from Benson & what a friendly crew you are.

Ok , what to say? ...if I tell too much...the chance for a successful follow up book is scuppered.
Paul from south Warwickshire here, coming back to the morini after 13 years recently purchased a 75' sport (blimey they went up in price). So nice the simplicity over computer chips and half a dozen riding modes.
I'm an old boy who thinks he's late 20's, the morini is my 165th bike, mostly Japanese a lot being two strokes, although this is my third morini 3.5, other Italians ...two laverda Montjuic and a 3ce, two guzzi lemon & a v11.
Calmed down a bit and have the morini, a bmw cafe racer and a daft yamaha tzr250rs.
If I learn how to...ill stick a few pics up.
Cheers Paul.

Good evening everyone!

I'm Juan Carlos from Spain. Riding an adorable Dart 350 which I saved and restored a year ago. My second Dart, as the firat one I had was also my first motorcycle... Well, aside from the Bultaco Frontera 370 when I was a kid. Now in my fifties, Suzuki SV 650 S and TL 1000 R were in between. Still looking for a new father for the later.

Many thanks to awesome Mark for helping me join this great place. I'm also in Morinis forum at spanish "www.lamaneta.org/forolamaneta".

Always amazed at how Brits are so fond and knowledgeable about these bikes. You guys got good taste!
