Cheapest Large Adventure Bike
At £11,599 on the road, Moto Morini's X-Cape 1200 is described as the cheapest large-capacity adventure bike on the market. It undercuts the Honda Africa Twin by £4,900 and the Moto Guzzi Stelvio by £3,296.
Italian-Designed V-Twin Engine
The 1178cc DOHC 8v 78° V-twin was designed by Italian Franco Lambertini and first used in the 2005 Corsaro street bike. It has since been extensively reworked to meet Euro5-plus regulations.
Built-In Forward Camera
The X-Cape features a 1080p camera mounted beneath the headlamps to record every ride. It also includes blind-spot detection mirrors, a 7-inch TFT dash with smartphone and sat nav capability.
Heavy For Its Class
The brochure quotes 256kg dry, but fully fuelled the bike rises to 294 kilos. This significant weight affects both performance and handling, limiting its off-road capability.
Poor Fuel Economy
Even at a moderate pace the X-Cape returns only 42 mpg, dropping to 35 mpg at worst. This compares unfavourably to the Africa Twin which returns 45-58 mpg.
