750 SF1 project for sale - UK

Marnix also has Larry's SFC. One is therefore one of the many fake SFCs around.
I did tell Marnix to be wary.

No ....... I have Larry's SFC.

Not my memory fading - i was dead right. Just found the original email chain where I discussed this directly with Wolfgang (cut & paste below). So Larry had 4 bikes - maybe all of 'em were SFCs!! But only one had the rear hub missing

>>>>>>>>>>>>
I bought the 1974 SFC withthe missing hub . Larry had put a suzuki gs 750 rear hub in the sfc . To avoid breaking the magnesium hub. I bought 4 of larrys bikes and all his parts and collection of printed laverda articles and infos .

Yikes, that's 3 ex Strung SFCs.
I'd better build one before the market is saturated and make a quick buck.
I've already done 3 Peter Fonda choppers, the word is getting out.
(And two Brigitte Bardot ones. I'd have been better off doing Brigitte Bardot

)

God! That was painful.
Reminded me why I always preferred Francoise Hardy.

Françoise Hardy was charming but had a crap taste in motorcycles.
She had good taste in men if that can boost your morale. But so did Bardot.

Marnix, Wolfgang, you must know how many SFCs Larry had? He certainly wasn't the type to produce fakes!!

If she knew how much the muffler shield’s sold for in 2023, she’d wouldn’t have taken them of her K1.

They’re probably after-market anyway, the originals only lasted 5 minutes unless you used redex every fill.
(the tank, not Françoise…)

He did sell all his bikes to Wolgang. One was a modded SF with GSX wheels and forks but it sounds like it wasn't the one I have.

Sold for £1700 which is reasonable for the UK.

I believe that Wolfgang bought 4 bikes from Larry: an 8000 batch drum SFC (now in Germany), the 17000 batch SFC racer (now mine) and a pair of modded SF based street bikes. I still have the GS750 rear hub, sprocket carrier and disc as I mounted an original magnesium hub again. Other bikes in his collection were an original spaceframe and a Montjuic which he already parted with earlier. Both bikes are in Holland.

Marnix.

“Muffler Shield“ ! Some sort of French contraceptive ?
