We have the technology - or I think I have all the missing parts are somewhere.

A mate's older brother had a 500 when I was a teen & my dad had a 500 &
a 350 until recently. Yet somehow I've never managed to ride one.
Fucked up there methinks.

We could do a timeshare. I'll have it in the spring & summer, you can
have it the rest of the year.

 

I'll pencil you on to the CIHAGM list for the 2C/375 when it's running
again next spring then shall I? Imagine lighter and sharper handling[1]
than even a 350, but with power approaching a 500 and freer revving. Oh
hold on, if you have never ridden one you can't.

IIRC Dave Minton even took a Morini to the Northwest Territory of Canada
many years ago, but in the summer TBF.

[1] The skinny 90/90 and 110/80 tyres make for pin sharp direction
changing if somewhat lacking in ultimate grip by today's standards,

I think you probably should.

Cnut. It gets worse, I used to live a few miles from Morphy Motors, &
the pub opposite was my dad's local. Then rather strangely the bloke
who taught me off-roading (Dick Sutton) married Mrs Morphy Motors many
years later. What the hell's her name? Buggered if I can remember. So
my life has crossed with Morinis many times. Must be fate.

 

Heh, I just remembered I had this photo of it in action when it (and
probably me TBF) was in its prime.
