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

I found the bit of Radiator hose I had used a while back and it's back on. Even that isn't really big enough but it's a bit neater. The bike is all back together ready for next Sunday's Lagoona ride and with hopefully some more compliant rear suspension. Surely it won't need much more spring preload to reduce the jarring from big hits. That's the road that caused my 3 months of back pain after hitting a massive pothole while twisting around as I passed a couple of brain-dead idiots who suddenly stopped mid-road for no reason. It's a very good suspension test for Tassie.

Good find, regular checks save breakdowns 😁. Greasing the nipple can help prevent that damage. When you buy a replacement, buy a spare also, and run them both along the cable route. Makes for an easy repair on the side of the road 👍

I haven't broken a clutch cable since I've been doing that.
Many years.

I forget but someone on a ride asked if I carried a spare clutch cable once. We did a count and everybody had a spare, some had 2.

<snip>. the Zane needs more gear shifting ...

You're right, Andre. It's my biggest complaint about the Zanè Formula. On any reasonably fast but bendy road, I find you're shifting up and down all the time in order to keep the thing in the sweet spot.

No torque ...

At least it's not blowing up, think positive.
