I still have most of the spanners from my 74 3C but the toolbag fell to pieces years ago. I can't ever remember seeing a complete and correct toolkit for sale.

This is the, almost complete set from mine.
Some little scrote stole the 9/10mm and 11/12mm spanners, back in '79.
The pliers are not original, but I still have the OEM ones.

Just noticed this on eBay. Doesn’t look as complete as the picture though or mention the model.

I still use mine regularly in the workshop. Wonder how many manufacturers supplied an oil dispenser with their bikes?!I’ve always wanted one of those little oil bottles Hamish

Hamish, I see you've got the 36mm hex, did they provide a 24, or just an open ender for the axle nut?
I got no toolkit with my second-hand 3c, so I enquired at Eades and bought Max's own SFC triple tool kit off him. My favourite is the tube spark plug spanner and Tommey Bar, using it allows the plugs to be removed with the fuel tank still fitted. I didnt get an oil can, though.

Just the 24mm open ender, Marty, which was silver, hard to tell, nowadays. The rest of the open enders being in a black finish.
I still use the supplied tools.
Back in '76, they and, especially, the handbook/partslist spoke volumes of Laverda quality and the Factory's committment to the Owners.

When I got my 3c, unfortunately the original tool kit wasn't included. So I put one together myself. However, my self compiled kit contains the 36mm hex though; still had that left over from my SF1!
That's what I remember...but I never used it
My factory toolbag fell apart and I replaced it with a nylon bag. Then I bought a modern tool set to keep the original set intact.

Still got nearly all my original grey (zinc coated) spanners that came with my SF1 - my 19mm open ender is broken in half ... no idea why, and I'm guessing it had a 17mm open ender on the other end. 36mm box is gone awol, but I haven't needed it for 40 years.

All tool kits should have multiple 10 and 13mm spanners. They are always the first to disappear.

Innaresting how M8 threaded fasteners will be 12mm-headed almost (if not totally) universdally on Jap bikes, whereas they'll be 13mm on Euro bikes (and cars) from my experience.
