Moto Morini is one of Italy’s lesser-known motorcycle brands, but it has a long history going back to the 1930s. Once a small family-run company, it went through several ownership changes before ending up with China’s Zhongneng Vehicle Group in 2018. Since then, Moto Morini has been working to re-establish itself globally, aiming to offer European styling and engineering at more accessible price points.
One of its latest efforts is a mid-sized adventure bike that was first revealed at EICMA 2024. It was called the Alltrhike, a name meant to blend “all-terrain” and “hike,” but one that landed awkwardly for a lot of riders (myself included). Now there’s an update: for the US market, the bike will reportedly launch under a new name, the Vettore.
That news comes via Dennis Chung at Motorcycle.com, who spotted VIN filings confirming the rebadge.
