Moto Morini 3 1/2 = 350cc. Great bike. They did it in 500cc as well.
I could never understand a Metric company calling a bike a name in fractions.....

Does Keith still own the blue '70 Coronet or has he moved it on?

Got sand-bagged by the guy with the '70 Coronet when I arrived. He was wondering about an engine rattle. I used to own that car so that's probably why it rattled
In actual fact it was fine; still a great car, though he has put a garish Billet Master Cylinder and Servo on it.....
I sold it when we moved into the cottage and immediately regretted it, that is probably why I went for the Bee. I think the '70 is a beautifully balanced car....
