MOTO MORINI Scrambler 1200 (2011-2011) Specs, Performance & Photos

Moto Morini is an Italian motorcycle manufacturer founded by Alfonso Morini in 1937. In its first years of existence, Morini manufactured bikes with the help of Mario Mazzetti, all of which were released under the MM brand.

However, the two partners split up in 1937, and Morini started manufacturing 350cc and 500cc three-wheel vehicles under the Moto Morini brand. The most successful Moto Morini model then was the M610, discontinued after the Second World War started.

Because the company's motorcycles were previously produced in Bologna in 1956, Moto Morini decided to move to a larger factory at Via Bergami. One of the most important milestones in the company's history occurred in 1969 when Alfonso Morini died at 71, and Gabriella Morini, his daughter, became the manager.

In 2011, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer released the Moto Morini Scrambler 1200, a naked motorcycle with a sporty character that could be handled on both paved and cobblestone roads.

Features like a round headlight with a small wind deflector on top, a one-piece dual seat, a dual exhaust system, and wire-spoke wheels complemented the bike's appearance.

The 2011 Moto Morini Scrambler 1200 was powered by a 1,187cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin engine fed by a fuel injection system. It boasted 117 hp, peaking at 8,500 rpm, and 102 Nm (75 lb-ft) torque at 6,700 rpm.
