A nice Moto-Morini is as worthy as a period Benelli, Laverda, Ducati or Guzzi, and probably less common (here in the US). I saw several 350's and 500's in Sicily this summer.

Yes, my MO for old bikes is to get 'free' ones. Meaning, the purchase price plus any resto and maintenance should at least even out when i sell it. So far, I've been on target. And I may be the only owner of two Morinis in the US. EDIT: A guy on the West Coast had about 30 of them, been selling off, but likely still has more than 2!

I also have a sweet little 1961 Tresette 175:
