Overview[edit | edit source]

Moto Morini 350 X2 / X3 Kanguro









The Kanguro uses the same engine as the K2 with a slightly milder camshaft for a broader powerband. Not only is the Kanguro fully capable of blitzing through the wilderness, but it is said to cruise comfortably on the open road at 80 mph. It features a powerful disc brake up front, single-shock rear suspension, aluminum swingarm and Marzocchi fork. Long legs and a flat, torquey powerband make the Kanguro capable of serious off-road dashing as well as more sedate jaunts.
