Positioned in Moto Morini's naked motorcycle lineup, the 2007 Moto Morini Corsaro 1200 relies on a 1187 cc (72.4 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 140 HP (102.2 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 123 Nm (90.7 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm. With a specific output of 117.9 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Corsaro 1200 measures 200 kg (441 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.7 HP/kg (1.43 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,440 mm (56.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
