Change the front rim and put regular street tires on it and I bet it would be a hell of a lot of fun!

Looks like a ducati monster...

Those are pretty cool. Moto Morini is one of those little manufacturers that is always skirting disaster and puts out cool stuff now and then.

I agree with OldSchlPunk; it needs street tires. Either that, or a skidplate and re-routing of that lower pipe.

Didn't that company go tits up? It looks like they failed to skirt this time. Good luck with any after-the-sale issues unless somebody buys them out and even then it'd be up in the air.

Nothing is practical about that bike for off road duties.

 

[BeeGee]

Those knobbies are not rated for over 100 mph so it isn't practical for streetriding either but it would be great for firetrails and the like. Plus it would look nice parked in front of Starbucks/caribou/local coffee shop.

You got a point ...

Your silly. Aprilia has some nasty twins for the dirt. And how about KTM's Adventure 990? Come on now.

Now if you specifically meant hare-scrambles then yes twins would suck. But they are awesome for the dirt.
