In the design phase of the Morlaco 2 chassis, one of the key aspects to consider is its stiffness. Since this motorcycle features an alternative front end, the steering head is “floating” at the end of the suspension’s A-arms. Therefore, when measuring stiffness, we must also consider the rigidity of these A-arms. What is chassis […]

We continue moving forward with the Morlaco 2 project! Here’s a first look at what we’re creating: a design that blends a futuristic style with a classic touch, clearly seen in the rounded shapes of the front fairing. In this sketch, we’re already exploring some key technical concepts: the fork shape, the aluminum fuel tank

The Morlaco was a project we carried out in our spare time, and in fact, as you know, it took us 20 years to finish the first prototype of this bike built around a Honda CBR954 engine. A few weeks ago, we started working on the second version of the Morlaco (internally we call it

It’s been some time since our last update on the Morlaco project, and we’re excited to bring you the latest developments. Building on our previous post, we’ve made significant strides with several key components, all initially shaped through 3D printing: the airbox and its ducts, the fuel tank, the subframe/seat, and both the front and

From time to time we are contacted by engineering students who are interested in doing their final degree project with us. In this case, Carlos del Río contacted us through Guillermo García Alfonsín, professor of “Data analysis and acquisition in race cars” at the MBA in Motorsport Engineering at Nebrija University. Surely you know Guillermo

As you know, this is a side project, something that we do in our “free time”. This year we are resolved to finish it and I think that we are in the right path to do it. The trick is to dedicate everyday a little while and do it in a consistent way. Every day.

Here you have the first video of the series that PowerArt is dedicating to the Morlaco project. As always we are really pleased with the final result, their videos are always very nicely made. I think it is going to be really cool and interesting to have the project covered in video format. The video
