the headlight looks bad to me.  the front reminds me of a 906 sort of, but in a bad way.

I love the new Morini bikes -- is this recent?  I thought they were on/off-again in bankruptcy..

I dont think thats recent.  I didnt even know they were back in bidness until last month.  I read last week that they were sold and are back in business.  I have never read anything but praise for their new bikes.  I wish they would come stateside.

 Evil I had a demo on a Morini 1200 Corsaro. Bloody awesome! If the dealer network and factory support had been any good, I may very well have bought one. In light of subsequent events, I'm glad I didn't. I do hope that the firm bounces back!

I love the new Morini's.  However, I'm pretty sure that they are not coming back to life anytime soon.  I wish Ducati made something like their scrambler.  Benelli is another Italian maker that is barely alive, but at least they were able to show up at EIMCA with a nice display.

I really like the profile of that.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

I do too, but the fairing might be too low for the upright riding position. It looks like the wind blast is going to hit you right in the chest and head.
