Title: One for the Morini fans...3 1/2 on craigslist
Post by: sdcr on June 16, 2018, 06:25:09 AM
This desirable Moto Morini 3 1/2 appears to be in great condition.
 Looks like it's in Boston, but listed on the New Jersey CL.

Just saw that one pictured for sale and sold on eBay a few days ago for 6500....hmm, I'd be wary of the ad...

Yep.  Looks like the one supposedly recently sold out of Riegersville PA.  Ad even sounds the same...

Agree, the fact that it is being advertised on a New Jersey CL, but " supposedly" it's in Boston does sound suspect. Plus, at $5000, in that condition would be a very good price.

Ahhhh, must be the season for these A-holes to come out of the woodwork. CL seems to have the most scam ads lately.

Can't remember exactly, but as I recall...Sports had red frames/Stradas had black frames?

Early 3 1/2 sports had black frame also.  Good website with Morini info and key highlights between the Strada, Sport and later models:
