Rare 1979 Moto Morini 3.5 Sport in near-original, excellent condition. The bike has been well cared for and upgraded in a few key ways in the 8 years since I purchased it. Starts easily, idles great, rides great, shifts and stops well. A great bike for around town, bike shows, or the track. Bike was restored to original, European-style right-side shifting from the lame Rube Goldberg left-shifting adaptation done for North American bikes in the 1970's. NLM quality parts used for the shift transfer, including new matching kickstart and exhaust heat-shield. I also installed proper rearmost on the bike, since it's a sport bike and the original street-bike footpads were absurdly too far forward for comfortable riding. If you like, I can include the original footpads, along with the converter kit for left-side shifting. Six-speed transmission was updated and refined with new NLM parts in 2015. Shifts consistently cleaner as a result. I've also cleaned the Dellorto carbs thoroughly and reinstalled the original airbox and filter, which results in smoother idling and easier starting. Bike also has a new Lithium battery. Bike-paint job is original, with little or no cosmetic damage. LaFranconi pipes, probably aftermarket additions by original owner. Fun bike to ride, looks fabulous, easy to own, gets great gas mileage. Clean title.
