Central stand wanted

[LaverdaSoren]

Hi,
I am after a central stand for a 1000 3C / 3CL that still have the peg on the left side intact.
Is there anybody who have that for sale?

For Ceriani, correct?

Hi Soren, I should have one central stand for Laverda 1000 with Ceriani forks. I can take some pix tonight - I'll send you a PM!
Ciao, Gert

Sorry Soren, found three main stands in my workshop, but all three for Marzocchi bikes. Ciao, Gert

OK,
Thank You for checking anyway.
What is the difference between stands for Ceriani and Marzochi?

Hi Soren, the Marzocchi main stand is 2 cm longer than the Ceriani main stand. See the pic from laverdaparadies.de enclosed.

What gives the Marzo bike the extra height (and cornering clearance)? Just longer forks? Or longer shocks as well to retain the geometry?

Frame, swingarm and shock length is the same, but Marzocchi forks are longer than Ceriani.

So must rake the front out a bit - slow down the steering? Then you arrange a front end collision to rejig it so it turns in!

I have seen more triple frame with front end collision than without. The result is a bend upper frame tube. The worst one was a 1000 3CL with 55 mm shorter wheelbase than original. Under hard braking the front fender was touching the downpipes. Ciao, Gert
