The Moto Rumi organisation was formed at the beginning of the twentieth century and originally supplied cast components to the textile machinery industry and armaments. Rumi decided to get involved in the manufacture of lightweight motorcycles post WWII. It was also decided to base the powerplant on the horizontal twin two-stroke unit of 125 cc capacity. The first model was called the Rumi Turismo, introduced at the Milan show in early 1950. The engine was a two-stroke parallel twin with the cylinders pointing straight forward; the cooling potential for that cylinder placement was excellent. The crankshaft had roller bearings at each end and full-circle flywheels worthy of the job. Cylinder barrels were iron, with aluminium heads.

This Moto Rumi Sport has been part of an enthusiast’s private collection. Owned by Mike Webster, a Scooter and Rumi expert, it was restored to a high standard and has little use since. This is a rare survivor today in the UK.
