Moto Morini Alltrhike 450 adventure bike confirmed for New Zealand

Moto Morini New Zealand has confirmed that the highly anticipated Alltrhike 450 will be joining the local lineup later this year.

Moto Morini has been quietly in the background of the NZ motorcycle scene since its arrival in 2022, but that's about to change with its first new model since its launch due to arrive in October of 2025.

The Moto Morini Alltrhike - yep, weird name in anyone's books - will arrive in New Zealand dealerships at a sharp price of $9,990, with the 450cc parallel-twin adventure bike set to go head-to-head with New Zealand's top selling motorcycle - the CFMOTO 450MT.

While final local specification is yet to be confirmed, we know that the Alltrhike will be LAMS approved and is powered by a eerily familiar 450cc parallel-twin engine which produces 44hp and 44Nm of torque. This is transferred the the 17-inch tubeless rear wheel via a 6-speed gearbox.

Fuel range should be good with 18-litres of on board fuel with the bike measuring in at 170kg dry. With a claimed seat height of 847mm, the Alltrhike should be a pretty manageable adventure class machine for most aspiring adventurers.

Up the front is a dirt friendly 21-inch front wheel and adjustable 41mm KYB fork offering up 210mm of travel. That should soak up the bumps and ensure that the factory skid plate doesn't touch the ground thanks to the bike's overall ground clearance of 220mm.

Tech wise, the Alltrhike brings to the table a navigation ready TFT display along with USB and USB-C charging ports, while the ABS system is switchable like its larger sibling, the X-Cape.

Pre orders for the Moto Morini Alltrhike are now open with the first bikes expected to arrive in dealers in October of 2025.
