Motorcycle specifications Morini1200 CORSARO VELOCE 2013 More toppings with sauce

after a two-year absence, the Corsaro Veloce made a comeback. A spicy version of Morini's already ballsy roadster, the Veloce returned with virtually the same arguments: a boiling-hot 140 hp twin topped by a crazy character, very vindictive plastic, and all the improvements that distinguished it from the standard Corsaro. These included a more adjustable Marzocchi fork, gold-series Brembo brakes, repositioned footrests and shortened shifter travel. Brake and clutch master cylinders are radial. Only two things really set this phoenix apart: the first is symbolic, as half a kg less torque won't make much difference. The other is a compelling argument: this muscular roadster is priced at under 12,000 euros. For the record, it used to sell for just 14,500 euros.

How did Morini get the price so low? Part of the explanation lies in the less noble equipment: the Öhlins amorto has been replaced by a Sachs, and the Termignoni mufflers have disappeared. We can console ourselves with the wide range of colors offered by the manufacturer when ordering the Corsaro (beware, the bill swells quite quickly). With 17 colors for the bodywork, 4 for the frame and 3 for the engine, the Corsaro Veloce offers more than 200 different combinations. The only criticism is that it doesn't offer electronic assistants, either as standard or as an option. But do they really belong here?
A few improvements for 2013: a more ergonomic seat, a new tension regulator, better-quality paint, new handlebars, redesigned mirrors, and an anti-dribble clutch that reduces left-hand lever effort by 50%.
