Weggy sighted

Tring to shepherd his antique Morini 350 Sport through stalled London
rush-hour traffic in the recent mini heatwave. Ho, ho, ho.

 

Would that have been when I filtered past you when you were sitting
behind a bus on London Bridge? Hmmm?

I've been commuting on it since it came out of winter hibernation 3 or
4 weeks ago, like I have for the last 8 years. Most weeks I use it for
the commute at least twice, if the weather's nice. It's *much*
easier to get through traffic on the 350 than the Speed Trip! It's a
cracking little bike. You ought to get one.

 

In communiqué

So I keep telling him.

That bloody 500 put me off Morinis.

 

That one was a decent basis for a restoration, but it needed tearing
down. Get a decent 350 and you'll soon forget all about that one. You
can always have a go of mine.

 

Bloody seller claimed it had been fully restored. Hah.

 

And *you* fell for that? ;-)

 

<ashamed>

I could see that some of his 'restoration' involved putting stainless
steel fasteners on. It was only when I started delving inside the engine
etc that I discovered the ghastly truth.

 

Restored, really? Blimey.

One mans "restoration" is another mans thinly disguised bodge, as I've
discovered with ye olde Triumph.

 

And as I've discovered with several 400 Fours recently.....

 

Well, you should still try the 350.


Box Hill one nice Sunday maybe. Bring your 400
