I haven't tested a new car in a long time.
You are really sorry, this has not been written for more than 20 days, it is indeed too busy at work, the leader quipped that I have to live in the company.
Thank you very much to so many brothers and sisters backstage who have left messages that care about my recent situation.
Although I haven't had time to write about cars recently, we can't pay less attention to motorcycles, right?
The most popular cars during this period were the QJmotor Racing 600, Chunfeng 450SR, and Wuji 525AC.
Of course, these cars I will definitely bring you a review soon, not because there are many people who write them, but I don't want to follow the crowd.
Friends who are really interested in the target model, after all, are still a minority who are willing to be guinea pigs, and I personally still want to take advantage of the boom to take advantage of the long test after I get the car to conduct a long test and then share with you in detail the real product power of these cars.
Just like the car I'm going to talk about today, the motorcycle Morini Severnza 6 and 1/2 (it is indeed a little difficult to type, I am referred to as Severnza below).
Don't even think about it, see here, you can pull to the comment area to see how many people open their mouths is "650nk", "Borgward" these words.
I don't care what other posts say, I personally want my readers to have less of this bias.
According to my observation: Borgward seems to be really not good, at least around me in addition to the car rental company, the visibility of this brand of cars is still relatively low.
There are many reasons for this, such as poor product strength, after-sales can not keep up, general reliability, and general assembly process.
For the motorcycle Morini, other posts or short videos have talked about a lot of brand introductions, and I will take a note here.
Zhongneng Locomotive, a subsidiary of Zhongneng Group, acquired the Italian century-old brand, representing a motorcycle molina with a large-displacement V2 engine, and the products underwent the process of "Italian design - domestic assembly - Italian tuning - resale global" to operate.
I know, like Benally, right?
Yes, it's very similar. But only successful experience is worth learning, otherwise what? Do you really learn from Borgward?
Let me tell you the truth: at least for now, these two cars launched by Moto Morini, I think are better than the current XX Leigh.
The first car, the X-cape, I had a test drive before it was launched, and I didn't care what anyone else said, at least I could give the car at least an 80.
You know, last month I only evaluated the Kawasaki Versasys650 in detail, if you only start from the perspective of price, X-cape cost performance can be described as a complete victory.
In 2022, the current generation of Versays650 wouldn't have been for its import status, I really think it wouldn't make sense to sell its official price nearly twice as high as X-cape (I know the offline offers are huge).
With a two-car deep test drive, I even feel that the X-cape is superior to the Versasys 650 at many key points.
Naturally, when it comes to Severnza today, there must be someone who wants to talk about the Spring Wind Cash 650nk again.
After I finished testing Severnza, I also took a look at the price of 650nk in Chunfeng and found that the official price was only 1900 yuan less than that of Vinzao.
I wanted to sigh again: it doesn't make sense...
Because: According to my feelings, these two cars are really two cars completely, even if you don't consider the brand and appearance and other nihilistic factors, this price difference is definitely much smaller than the gap between the product strength of the two cars.
Here you can pull to the comment area again to see, I am almost certain that a large group of keyboard men who have never seen a real car have come to line up to say "give money" and "recharge". Be well, you are happy, all car owners, prospective owners, fans are welcome to continue to watch.
After I tried this car, I and the riders on the side kept repeating a sentence "Really, the car must be tried by itself, don't try, we were fooled by the keyboard man again!" Fortunately! ”
positioning
I don't know or read the previous manufacturer's publicity, anyway, through the test, I think Severnza is a traditional street car. It is suitable for walking the streets and alleys, with part of the sports gene, design, workmanship, materials at this level, this price, I think it is a great value for money.
Again, without considering any brand factors, Chunfeng 650nk does have a significant gap.
Static representation
Overall appearance
The Italian exterior design does have a set, and the originality of the shape of this car is really very high.
Does it look good?
No matter how good the product is, even if it is Ducati, some people say that it is ugly. This can not be forced, you can see if it is in line with your own aesthetics.
In my personal opinion, I think the appearance can at least score 85 points.
In terms of workmanship, I gave a very high evaluation before the X-cape, especially the fish scale welding of its frame is really very beautiful.
Severnza is no exception, casually putting two pictures.
Whether it is welders, wiring, screw consistency, I think many imported models are not as good as it, really "a lot". If you have the opportunity to see the real car, you may really change some of your own inherent cognition.
When it comes to domestic model workmanship materials, I generally mentioned that several excellent brands are Haojue, Gaojin, Wuji, etc., and now, with the addition of motorcycle Morini, there is no problem at all.
seat
A street car that brushes the street, in addition to the appearance, I think the most worthy of everyone's attention should be the riding triangle.
One of the first things that comes to mind must be the height of the seat.
Friends know that I am 172cm tall and weigh 69 kg (haha, I deliberately lost weight for two months, the weight is back, another day to share weight loss with you), I rode up and sat in a posture basically like this:
I can land almost with both feet on the ground at the same time, and 4/5 of the full feet on the ground is certainly possible.
The front of Severnza's seat is clearly narrowed.
If you don't sit in this set of seats, just stand on the side of the car and pat it, press it, it will definitely say that it is really soft.
However, if you really ride it, you will find that this set of seats is soft on the surface, the internal support is still very sufficient, the thickness is average, which is to do its best to seek a balance point in the height of the seat, ensuring comfort, and styling design.
To be honest, I personally don't like high and low seats, because such a car has slightly higher pedals in order to ensure inclination and ground clearance when riding, resulting in a knee curl up more severely.
But Severnza really didn't. In addition to the inclination angle to ensure the level of an ordinary street car, the foot pedals are also more centered and lower. I rode for 3 hours at a time and didn't feel that my knees were too uncomfortable.
As a result, such a set of riding triangles creates a very comfortable driving posture.
But this design definitely has side effects, that is, the design inclination of this car is indeed general, and it is still relatively easy to grind to the pedals, so I recommend that you should not be too aggressive when driving.
On the day of the test, I almost made a joke ~ it is true that this car is easier to ride, I myself have not tested the car for a long time, slightly careless, when cornering, the rear wheel slid out, almost fell.
tyre
Speaking of sliding out, talking about tyres, Severnza's tyres are Pirelli's MT60RS, just like the Ducati tour.
Don't see that there is an RS can be casually ho ho, low-key, riding handsome not riding fast.
Handlebars and buttons
The width and height of Severnza's handlebars are both on a traditional streetcar level.
With my figure, the body is slightly forward-leaning during normal riding, and there will be no burden, because after all, it is not a purely comfortable sexual orientation such as climbing, vacation, and adventure car.
The angle of rotation of the handlebar is normal, and there is nothing wrong with it.
My friends around me know that my evaluation of The Ducati self-tour is extremely high, but self-travel is not all good, at least in terms of handlebar rotation angle.
Learn from Severnza.
Basically here, you can see that Severnza is moving towards the positioning of "daily life brushing street cars" in the cycling triangle, which is very comfortable and intimate.
In terms of buttons, Severnza is exactly the same as the previous X-cape, and the press feedback is also very crisp. To be honest, there is a Spring Wind 800MT parked next to it, and in comparison, I really don't like the sticky button texture of the 800MT.
In terms of horns, the angle of the clutch and front brake lever opening and closing are adjustable, and the adjustment texture is not bad.
Friends who know me well know that as long as I can adjust it, I am praised.
appearance
It is another eye-catching configuration, mobile phone projection screen, car machine interconnection, tire pressure monitoring these I will not mention, just say this UI interface design, texture, display, clarity, anti-reflective and other aspects, the first echelon of domestically manufactured cars, the problem is not big, right?
Concise, crisp, clear and recognizable. Do you have to find a disadvantage, is it not enough to have a motorcycle Morini logo in the screen display area?
fuel tank
The entire fuel tank still looks relatively wide from the driving point of view, and the shape is also relatively easy to clamp.
By the way, I don't know about other color-matched cars, but this silver color-matched car, the stickers are all pasted on the outside.
Personally, I don't particularly like it, and it won't be long before the stickers should wear and change color.
Embarrassingly, with the current sticker position, the fuel tank sticker is not very sticky, and it is easy to block the original sticker.
Other details welcome everyone to go to the store to see the real car, basically worth saying this.
Fuel tank 15.5 liters, fuel consumption I did not measure, but since it is this engine, very fuel-efficient everyone almost do not have to think, as long as it is not particularly intense driving, 350 km problem is not big.
Dynamic performance
Power unit
As I said earlier, many people I don't understand what kind of psychology, see people are not good?
I seriously suspect that many people, the real car has not seen, the opening mouth is the Chunfeng 650 engine, indeed, the main body of the hardware is the Chunfeng 649cc side-by-side twin engine that has been used for ten years.
But the hardware needs to be tuned, and different tuning can really create a completely different running texture.
Exceptionally typical is Severnza's engine.
Didn't I just test the Kawasaki Beast 650 last month? Although the two engines are of the same origin, the beast pays relatively much attention to low torque because it is an RV, so the start is obviously more fierce.
The Severnza power is relatively linear, and what is valuable is that the vibration control of this engine is very good.
I dare not say that it is fully surpassed by the Kawasaki Beast 650 (in fact, the common interval vibration control is really at least not losing Kawasaki), but it is definitely better than the previous X-cape, let alone the Spring Breeze 650nk and mt.
X-cape I remember starting from 4000 rpm, as the speed increases, the vibration is proportionally increased; Severnza really didn't have a noticeable vibration before 6,000 rpm, and it was probably when the maximum torque of 7,000 rpm appeared that the vibration was more obvious.
Moreover, this is obviously only relative to itself, and if compared with most other models, this vibration is not a problem at all.
If you think about it, maybe the most violent time is idle.
In terms of curbing drag, Severnza has also done a good job. Measured in the fifth gear about 41 kilometers per hour, the sixth gear about 55 kilometers per hour, the car can drive normally, will not be particularly bad.
In this regard, this engine tuning is better than the 650nk.
Absolute power, although there is no instrument, but in my personal opinion, 4.5 seconds or so should be able to do. Although the power of this car is not weak, it is not as easy to start as the beast 650.
By the way, it is not absolutely strong that zero hundred is necessarily strong. Whether the starting can hold the front of the car, whether the tire can grasp the ground, the actual assembly of the tooth plate, the rider's technology and other reasons can be combined to accurately reflect the true zero hundred level.
This thing is at best a reference, and it does not fully reflect the actual power level of the car 100% objectively.
In terms of the positioning of this car, this power level is fully worthy.
But if you say how surging the momentum is, that's not enough. After all, it is only an entry-level large displacement, and it is more comfortable.2
Really, although it is the same engine, from the power unit, Severnza and 650nk, whether in terms of vibration characteristics, output characteristics, and high rotational ductility, are completely two cars.
The throttle response is very fast, the power output can be described almost at will, and the synchronization of the power transmitted to the wheel is also very high, and it is necessary to give a good review.
Sound wave words, to be honest 650nk I forgot, but definitely no stunning impression. Severnza's sound wave I still feel is relatively average, the volume is not very large is normal, but the sound quality is slightly hollow, which is not an advantage.
Overall, Severnza's power performance is not like a European car, it is exactly a car that I can describe as docile.
control
Severnza's manipulation is also an important point that the title of my article wants to make.
The keyboard men opened their mouths to be the Spring Wind engine, so that I didn't actually ride this car until I thought this car was a 650nk hull.
As mentioned earlier, the power unit of the two cars is completely two cars, and when it comes to control, it is two cars.
The Severnza body configuration is significantly more compact, and the strength cannot be said to be strong, but it is completely sufficient based on its positioning.
In addition, Severnza's directionality is very accurate, and the front control can be completely classified into the category of "light".
If the 650nk rotation front body mass is 10, Severnza has a maximum of 7.
But not to say that light is completely an advantage, Severnza is still relatively sensitive when cornering at high speed, the gain with speed is not very strong, and the stability can only be said to be average.
Back to its positioning, this car is not a sports car, and there are climbing models in the later stage, and there is no essential difference between the two I can still understand. So Severnza's performance in the bend can still be praised with its positioning.
Although the curb weight is 215 kilograms, Severnza really doesn't feel that it is so heavy on paper.
Actually riding up, the left and right direction can still feel that it is indeed so heavy, it belongs to a relatively calm.
Don't rush to spray, or positioning, it is not a sport model, there is no need to create a very flexible or very thief sense of transdirection, stability is not a disadvantage for it.
By the way, I tried to let go of my hands to observe, I don't know if it is an individual factor, this car faucet is slightly to the right.
If you bend, as mentioned earlier when you said foot pedals, this car pedal is still slightly lower, and the inclination angle of the whole car is not very large.
The heat of the engine is still relatively large, Chengdu is now about 30 degrees of temperature, the speed of the car is slightly slower or stop and wait for the red light, the temperature on both sides of the engine is still very existential. The position of the fuel tank and the underside of the thighs can still be clearly felt.
clutch
I know that the 650nk is now also equipped with a sliding clutch, sorry not to experience it.
Severnza is equipped with the FCC sliding clutch as standard, and the grip in the sliding clutch belongs to such a category.
Personally, I have been riding a car without a sliding clutch for many years, and I am used to not having to change gears without a clutch. However, as a street car positioning the brush street, the clutch is too heavy after all, it is not a good thing, so the sliding clutch is definitely a good review.
Of course, I also tried the limited slip effect, and the rear wheel of the fourth gear of 50 km per hour was directly reduced to the second gear without any locking phenomenon.
The texture of the shift foot bar is generally praised, the gear is very clear, and the shifting process is relatively crisp, without any stickiness. The entry is also accompanied by a certain sense of inhalation.
But the shift stroke is slightly longer, which requires a little adaptation.
Of course, this clutch is still used by my own habits, without the clutch to change gears or need to increase the speed of the car to achieve relatively smooth; Downshift oil replenishment is very easy to use, this should be praised.
Suspension system
Front and rear KYB suspension.
The front suspension in the original factory state belongs to the hard setting, encountering bumps, such as manhole covers, such as the road surface in the picture below, vibration absorption is still good, and the bottom is definitely not.
But the rebound was done very well, and the car did not have any excess trembling and bouncing when encountering undulations.
The rear suspension is slightly different from the front suspension, the hardness will be harder, the rebound is slightly faster, and the actual shock absorption ability of the bumpy road surface will be slightly inferior to the front suspension, but I am talking about only the original factory situation, this difference can be adjusted obviously more comfortable.
Braking system
Don't look at the front double disc, the upper and lower pumps are all abalone and excited.
Actually, the braking performance of this car is not at all like the Brembo brakes I have ridden before, but a bit like Nissin.
The brake feel is relatively light, but the braking force in the front, middle and rear sections is very linear, and the braking force is sufficient, but it definitely does not have the feeling of hitting the wall that the mid-section of brembo can suddenly come.
Because the front suspension is generally tough, the front sunken amount of the car during the heavy braking is not large, and the body posture is still relatively elegant.
Speaking of ABS, before and after the Bosch 9.1 version, the ABS feedback before and after the trigger is still excellent, there is no sudden feeling of shock, and the prompt strength is still relatively mild. However, there is still a slight gap compared with the 10.0 version of ABS such as the Haojue TR300.
ABS tuning definitely belongs to the category of excellence, and the timing of intervention is just between tire hugging and not hugging, which is very accurate and praised.
summary
The MotoMolini Severnza 6 and 1/2 is an entry-level, high-displacement streetcar that can be said to have no driving passion that is biased toward comfort and street brushing.
Among all the models manufactured in China, its workmanship definitely belongs to the first echelon, the appearance and shape are also quite designed, and the overall driving feeling is also relaxed.
This car is very suitable for high-displacement entry novices, even female riders to buy. Because I really don't feel any driving difficulty. (However, I still have to be warmly reminded: after all, it is a car with at least a large displacement in Taiwan, please be sure to keep a sense of awe!) ）
It's definitely a good car.
Slot point
Having said a lot of advantages, there must be slot points.
1. The sound wave is really not good, which has nothing to do with the volume level, I mean the sound texture.
2. The engine heat is still not small, which completely makes you feel that you are riding a large-displacement motorcycle.
3. The shaking when idling is not small compared to itself, you must test drive, test drive, test drive, don't play a fire and sit down to finish, you will be misled.
4. The same model, different colors, some brand stickers will be pasted on the outside, may also be pasted inside. At least my car of this color, the sticker is pasted externally, and because of the overall appearance, the place where the thigh clips the fuel tank is very likely to be torn, and the sticker may not look good.
5. The rear suspension in the original factory state is slightly harder, which can not be said to be a groove point strictly speaking, anyway, it can be adjusted, and you have to see your own needs.
Buying advice
Buying recommendations that are divorced from price are all hooligans.
With the actual product strength of this car and its positioning, the price of 42800 is definitely worth it even if it does not consider the brand factor.
After all, there is a Spring Wind 650nk as a comparison below, although the two cars are positioned differently, spring wind 650nk is more sporty, but overall, I still think that the price of Severnza is very affordable for us consumers.
There is a hidden problem here, after all, Moto Morini is a brand that has appeared in the vision of domestic car owners for less than 2 years.
Physical store construction, after-sales power, aftermarket supporting aspects are definitely not as wide as chunfeng such a big brand coverage. This point must be admitted, anyway, the task is long, the car is definitely a good car, I hope that the manufacturer will continue to work hard.
Finally, I probably searched the whole network for the evaluation or introduction of this car, still most of the marketing text, I hope that my evaluation can bring you some references, at the same time, or that sentence, welcome to try the real car to see if it is what I said.
