I'm not sure that I can fit on an SFC. Which is why it might come up for sale in a few weeks.
As for not giving up on my body, that's for the ladies.

What did you do to or for or with your Laverda today?

That gesture means something completely different in the UK, sometimes referred to as the “Queen Mother’s Salute”

Felt like the first day of Spring, today. So off for a little run in the countryside.
The smell of the hay, in this barn, made me think of Summer.

We'll be getting that weather from the West tomorrow. It's been lousy today.

The 1200 has done 1900Km's, got an oil change and a wash. It has not missed a beat in a week of punishing riding, including off road. Rain has also been 70% of ride time.

Back from a ride yesterday, as I selected neutral pulling into the garage had a naked bulb shining back at me.
The red green lens obviously came loose and sucked into the ether somewhere along the way

Today I received an original 48 years old operation and maintenance manual for my 3c. It is in near mint condition. Near, because the dumb postman choked it ruthly into my mailbox. Never mind.
My 3c was 1st registered in August 1974 in Mantua, Italy. So it's fairly certain that it was exactly that version. Following Gerts archive, the next handbook was not published until September 1974.
Many thanks Gert!

I still have my original one, but it's looking a lttle tired. I must find a bookbinder who can restore it.

It would be nice to find an Aermachhi that can reassemble a Laverda. I could keep it busy for a while.

Finally thanks to covid isolation I got a moment to do a first fit of the front end with conversion parts from Redax. All seems good .
The head is also back from Redax so I really need to make a start on the motor.

Took the S out. First time since changing primary chain, clutch rubbers, and a spke in the rear wheel. I also tried to "fine tune" gear selection, to no avail. Still false neutrals coming down 5-4-3. And a very hard to find neutral but that might get better once everything has found it's sweet spot. Still a very pleasant machine with an excellent front brake.
A 50 km ride with my wife to go and buy some foie gras for my sister and brother in law besieged in deepest Wales.

Had to google Foie Gras, seems like Supercharged duck liver pate.
That denotes a total absence of culinary culture.
I presume that in Breganze, you drank beer?
You'd no doubt be very much at home in deepest Wales.

For info, a paté is a mix of several ingredients, a liver paté would have liver in it. It needs 50% liver to qualify as liver paté.
Foie gras is 100 % liver, goose or duck, of a force fed fowl, which induces steatosis, a fat liver also found in humans with a high fat and or alcohol diet. Because of it's method of production, foie gras is very unpopular with certain animal lovers and in the anglo saxon world (foie gras, not fatty diets or alcohol) I believe its is to be banned in the USA.

That is a silly question, with an obvious answer: Scrumpy made me do it.
Re absence of culinary culture: It wasn’t me that drank the dusty half a bottle of wine, he found under the bed in his hotel room, before breakfast.
