Motorcycle specifications Morini 9 1-2 2008 Morini's Monster

presentation of the 9 1-2 2008

the Corsaro's little sister, the 9 1/2 also marks Morini's return to the market, and more specifically to the sporty roadster segment. The manufacturer presents it as the descendant of the legendary 3 1/2. The Corsaro's twin is housed in the trellis frame, but slightly downsized so as not to overpower the big Morini. As the latter is aimed more at the (very) top end of the market, the 9 1/2 will appeal to a wider audience, competing directly with the Monster 1000 and S4R, SV 1000 and other roadsters in the segment. Compared to the big 1200, this machine features a single muffler, with a design similar to that of the MT-01, a different swingarm and mudguard, a one-piece two-seat, a specific fuel tank, but still a large-section inverted fork. The twin-cylinder engine is rated at 117 bhp and 10 mkg of torque, more than enough to have fun behind the wheel of an Italian with a respectable name.

Max Model 2010

I've been riding this little Italian beauty for six months now... she's adorably feisty... one thing's for sure, you don't want to make her angry because she takes off at breakneck speed... 205 km/7000 rpm... on top of her good looks and cute little rear end... she's a real pleasure to ride. 02/22/2026 21:12 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Max

supermotar Model 2007

At last, a lookable bike! Unfortunately, I've just read the review of the 1200, and its engine and road qualities are 100% in line with my expectations... So I'm dreaming of a real bike, i.e. the style of the 9 1/2 with the qualities of the big one... 07/13/2005 22:31 Rating : 5/5 Respond to supermotar

desmo-addi Model 2007

I prefer it to the Corsaro, less "Star Wars". Nothing superfluous, a good twin-cylinder, big handlebars, good suspension and it rolls

magneti marelli injection,gearbox 6,unless I'm mistaken piaggio group so healthy,brembo320x2,steel frame(verlicchi?)a priori it's well born,but the upper shock absorber support seems weak to me...the monstro has to behave itself... 02/12/2005 11:15 Rating : 5/5 Respond to totoff

Nicolas Model 2007

It'll never be more than one more mostro, and let's hope for their sake that the roadster market is sufficiently extensible to absorb 2 more models. Otherwise, in terms of finish and engine performance (on paper for the moment), they've got the makings of a serious brand, and I wish them the best of luck for the brand's revival. 01/10/2005 09:40 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Nicolas
