The 2026 Moto Morini 3 1/2 Sport is a new interpretation of an iconic model that was designed by Franco Lambertini and launched in 1974. The new version leans on the legacy of the original while using modern technologies and styling.
The 3 1/2 Sport is powered by a 350cc V-Twin that makes a claimed 33 hp at 8,500 rpm and 23 lb-ft of torque at 6,500 rpm, with a max speed of 93 mph. It features a radial-mounted 4-piston front caliper pinching a 300mm disc, steel braided brake lines, and Bosch ABS. Suspension includes a 43mm inverted fork and a monoshock with preload adjustability, both offering 4.7 inches of travel.
The new 3 1/2 Sport also comes with full LED lighting, a 4-inch TFT display, clip-on handlebars, and a 4-gallon fuel tank. Seat height is 30.7 inches, and the wheelbase is 55.9 inches. Although pricing hasn’t been announced yet, it will come with a three-year, unlimited-mile warranty.
This new model joins Moto Morini’s lineup of bikes like the Vettore 450 and X-Cape adventure bikes, the Calibro cruisers, the STR roadsters, and the SCR scramblers. Moto Morini was originally founded in Bologna, Italy, in 1937. It was first sold in 1987 and has since passed hands numerous times, most recently to Chinese manufacturer Zhongneng Vehicle Group in 2018.
