Quicker Corsaro lands
Veloce promises more sporty performanceMoto Morini has introduced the upgraded version of its 1200 Cosaro locally, called the Veloce.
According to the maker, "The name is also inspired by the best tradition of the Bologna motorcycle manufacturer, who in the early sixties gave the name Corsaro Veloce to a sporty version of the Corsaro 125, a model blessed by success in that era."
The machine boasts upgraded suspension, a Termi pipe, an additional sport-mode ECU and a host of other goodies.
All up it promises a lively 140 horses for a semi-wet weight of 196 kilos.
It's priced at $23,990 plus ORC.
See below for the factory list of changes from the standard Corsaro, plus the specs.

Additional Sport ECU (the after-market model)?The bike will come with: standard ECU + 1 SPORT ECU, that shall be mounted when the dB killer is removed from the silencers - Both ECUs are included in the sales price.
