EICMA 2023: Moto Morini Corsaro Sports Brings Back The Heat

Moto Morini, which is now under the ownership of Chinese giant Zhongneng Vehicle Group, has introduced two V-twin middleweight motorcycles, one of which is the Corsaro Sports, a 750 cc fully faired sports bike.

The engine on this bike is a 749 cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine. This engine makes 96 bhp but the company has not disclosed at what rpm or the peak torque. It meets Euro 5+ (BS6) emission norms.

The Corsaro Sport has a fully faired design with distinct Italian styling, characterised by clean lines. Its front end has aggression, though it's a look that needs time to get used to. Notably, the winglets on this bike have a unique shape compared to current market trends. The tank has a top flaring, providing a robust appearance without affecting leg grip. During the EICMA event, the bike was showcased with a cowl instead of a rear seat. To round off its appearance, twin exhausts contribute to a menacing rear look.

This bike weighs approximately 200 kgs and for that weight the power seems quite adequate. The chassis combines aluminium twin-spar structure with steel tubing and has a 1460.5 mm wheelbase. The suspension is fully adjustable.

In terms of technology, the bike is equipped with cornering ABS and Brembo brakes. It features the same 17-inch cast-aluminium wheels with 120/70-17 front and 190/55-17 rear tyres as its naked sibling.

Moto Morini currently sells its entire 650cc lineup in India, but it's uncertain whether these V-twin models will also be introduced in the country.
