1980 Moto Morini 3.5 Sport

Description

Got this 1980 Moto Morini 3.5 Sport sitting in my garage in clynderwen, Pembrokeshire — it’s been with me since 2015 and I’ve kept it well looked after ever since. It’s a proper restored example, runs smooth, and I’ve had it serviced with a new Sachse digital ignition, master cylinder, chain, battery, and tyres. The 344cc V-twin is a bit of a classic — originally made by Morini in Bologna, with a design that was pretty much on par with a Honda CB750 back in the day.

It’s got a clean UK registration (OKH507V), full V5, two keys, and is clear on HPi. Odometer reads 26,062 km, and it’s not MOT’d since it’s a bit of a special one — no need for a test, it’s just a lovely ride. The gearbox is a 6-speed, and it’s been properly set up with Tazozzi clip-ons too.

I’ve been thinking about selling it because I’ve been doing a bit of work on other bikes lately, and this one’s been sitting nicely in the garage for a few years. It’s a solid piece — I’ve ridden it a few times, and it’s been reliable.

It’s going to the September 2025 auction at Manor Park Classics, which is the only fixed venue for classic cars and bikes in the North West. I’ve been going to their events, and the way they handle things — from viewing days to storage — makes it easy for sellers.

No warranty on the bike, obviously — it’s been used and maintained by me, and I’ve kept it in good shape. If you’re interested, I’d recommend checking it out before buying, especially if you’ve never ridden one of these.

If you’re into classic bikes or just want a solid, well-maintained V-twin to enjoy, this one’s been a real pleasure to own. I’m not selling it for a lot — it’s just not going to stay in the garage much longer.
