I've not seen a dry clutch on a Morini, but I am not surprised.  Morini is really the half brother of Ducati, factory was only about 10 miles away.  Love that 72° engine

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Every time I see a Morini pic.... I want my old one back.

These guys made the other 900SS cafe (Union) here:


This is a 93 900SS reworked.  The frame is modified from the engine mounts back.  Tank is unmodified.  I have a 92 900ss tank the vent bump is a little round deal instead of the later rectangular style.  I do not like the front at all.   The round headlight looks out of place to me on that bike -- it's too small and recessed.  I would have used the square original light flush mounted.  It reminds me too much of the MH900e which I can't stand (the front of)

I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

Ducatiz, I love it. I like the side view of the bike. The fairing is set at a good angle which is matched by the angle of the silver paint on top of the tank and the angle of the Ducati logo.  You're right about the little recessed headlight though. It needs to be larger.
