Hey Clem, your fat (but perfectly formed) arse features in this 750 article - about half way down. You will have seen it before of course, in the magazine.

Indeed a nice article, but to state that all new parts used in a rebuild originate from him is just not true!
I know of 2 manufacturers that produce internal engine parts, casings, the majority of rubber parts and some other obsolete parts for the 750's and triples and none of them deal with Riccardo, in fact both of them have never even been to Breganze as far as I know!
 
Hey Paul, can you get Classic Bike online?
I looked but couldn't find anything.
It's one of the few UK mags I miss.
 
Hi Grant. Sorry, no I can't. This one just came up from Google. Maybe they release older articles to the web to try and stimulate some sales interest in the current mag? P
 
I found one for Jota on the same site.

Seems to be an upload site?

I don't know if this is the same contraption on display in Cologne at the IFMA this year but it does look nicely done.

Replica (well not quite) 750 badges to be found from all usual sources!
 
Price outside Aus would be going up because of the exchange rate against the strong Aussie dollar.
Brian's work is excellent though - quality is better than the factory originals (better casting, better plating, and the baked enamel colours don't fade)

Cheers,
Cam
 
Henry, depends on the exchange rate.
3-4 years ago you would have said the badges where as cheap as chips.
Now the exchange rate has swung the other way so anything from Aussie is now expensive.
Brian has not increased his prices for a number of years now.

Thats life.

 
If anyone has a raised alloy RGA100 badge( not the metal stick on flat ones from Andy Wagner  which i currently have)Brian will make me some but needs an original as a template so if youre out there get in touch please,

better buy now, then, before ireland defaults/causes panic in the ? zone, which is likely to happen any moment.

funny how governments have been borrowing and spending themselves beyond bankruptcy and now that the process to establish a little fiscal common sense has kicked in, they all go out on the street and protest because they are not going to get their benefits hand outs like before. the banks, which have caused much of the problem are laughing at people everywhere and are paying big fat bonuses to any little jerk who would like a 20 billion flutter on the horses.
will the new wat tyler please stand up.

RGA never had metal badges, only stickers that imitated the look of an RGS badge.
Ditto for the "Jota" badge on an RGA Jota.

Carefull, not around the kids or work!

Only one Laverda foto unfortunately. The others are worth a browse though  :P :P
