NGC Moto Morini 3-1/2 Sport
« on: November 19, 2020, 08:28:20 PM »
Very desirable bike,

This bike has never been apart or restored and is an excellant example of a very rare Italian high performance motorcycle that doesn't come up for sale very often in this condition

Given its an original unrestored bike I agree that price is not crazy, still damn expensive but....

 I had one years ago but it had been a race bike was painted in primer and had a frame with no vin number, so I sold it. I had a guy drive from Minnesota to Ct to buy it. He showed up in a beat up old PU truck with his daughter with an infant on her lap.I ask him to stay for dinner but he thank me me and said they had to start heading back. Guess he really wanted it. 
 That's a nice bike and considering what they cost new the price is not bad.

To rich for me butt then I'm just a poor retired carpenter.

Luckily I have a V65 SP that I picked up for $ 600 ran when last parked a decade earlier that I'm resto-modding.

Pics once I'm done.

It's nice to know that there are a few of us left who still realize/recognize what Morini "magic" is/was all about. Thank your that! I never plan on being without one...

P.S. -- there's a K2 out there, now. But believe it or not, the best rider I ever had was...a 501 Camel! There's one currently For Sale on CYCLE TRADER.

About 10-12 years ago, when I lived in NORCAL, I looked at one similar to this in Oakland, and in about the same condition, and the guy wanted $8500 for it...no negotiating...and of course, I passed...

No looking back, but maybe that price was not unreasonable....The y are great bikes, espeically, the 3 1/2 :thumb: :cool: :wink: :smiley:
