This is my 1975 Moto Morini 3 1/2 that I purchased when I bought out a local dealership after the owner passed away. It has a build date of Nov 1974. It’s said to be the first 3 1/2 that this dealership ever sold. He sold it to his cousin. I also got an inventory of Morini parts, ome NOS, ome good used, nd some which may need fixing. All of this goes together in this sale. The shop was West Enterprises Cycle Shack in Bechtelsville PA. The owner was partners with Hermy when they raced Morini twins at Daytona and elsewhere.I have pictures of that. The shop also sold Bultaco.I'm keeping the Bultaco stuff
The bike runs and drives fine. This is the early twin leading shoe drum brake model.Before now, thad been sitting for many years. It has 11,100 original miles. The carbs were rebuilt this year at Hermys. They were pretty oxidized. I replaced the rear tire with an NOS Dunlop and also the rear wheel bearings while I was there. The tank had some pinholes, hich I had to solder shut with silver solder so that I could save the original paint. The bike will come with an extra used gas tank and side panels if you wish to repaint it but save the original paint. The inside of the this tank is coated. Hermy’s service department helped me bring it to life but I’ve not gone over it for more than a short ride or two. It runs and drives fine down the road but is not ready for a long trip without a better going over.
It looks to be correct and original but for the rear turn signals which have been relocated to the tail-light bracket. It had an ugly aftermarket modified luggage rack which required the previous owner to relocate the turn signals. I took that ugly thing off! There are extra turn signals with the many parts included.
This sale is onea lot with all the parts included. I will not separate the bike from the parts.The parts include brake shoes, wo NOS heads, speedo, achometer, ables, ne NOS tank emblem, wo used tanks, pair of side panels, evers, edals, cush drive, lectronic ignition stuff, ngine and clutch parts, enders,and a bunch of other stuff. See pix for details. What you see there is what you get.The bikehas some patina which I tried to show in the pictures but it is very original.
