You ever heard about this bike?



We tested it for a magazine some months ago.



It's the Moto Morini Corsaro. Moto Morini was famous in the early '80s for small sporty twins, but later
the Japs killed her with their new four-bangers.
Now it's back, with an all-new 1200cc v-twin engine, water-cooled,
and it's neatly looking just as much is a bastard bitch to ride.





It's got 140BHp @8500 RPM ( damn ) and
something like 23 Nm-12,5 Kgm @ 6500 RPM...

It is a HELL of a bike for mountain rides, and you can even ride it quiet and civilised while in the city..
just, speak to the throttle
with great, great respect.

Streetfighter design has no much more to look at, i guess designers already invented everything in this field, so
yes, it may resemble some of the two.
But it won't break down as Ducatis do, and it's got a proper italian front end layout.. so it'll also ride properly,
wich Speed Triples can't afford..
not before Carlo Talamo's cure though
