Description
"The engine's warm enough by now, so it's time to move, and the Corsaro moves and how. This thing kicks serious power in from 2000 rpm, and for a very long time I just don't feel the need to ever push it beyond 5K. The engine's response to throttle inputs is almost embarrassingly strong; every turn's exit is an invitation for a power slide. As if the down-low oomph wasn't impressive enough, I finally let the engine rip and the 1200 “Bialbero” (Twin Cam) continues to pull like a rhino up to the rev limiter at 9000 rpm and change. Just to give you a more precise idea, between 5K and 9K the torque never dips under 72 ft-lbs, peaking with a heady 90 ft-lbs at 6500 rpm. Add to that a more-than-respectable 140-hp peak and short-ish overall gearing, and you get a tool that will give any Ducati owner a serious size complex."
"So is this Morini a naked bike aficionado's dream come true? The power is there; even the Kawi Z1000 and Yamaha FZ1 1000cc Fours would have to work hard to keep up with this one. Handling is more than fine, too, thank you. This Corsaro has the potential to be the new mother of all naked, sporty big Twins."
Rarely available in Australia in this low mileage condition, here is your opportunity to own one of these classic naked sport big twin motorcycles.
