Laverda SFC 1000 1985 model-bits and bobs (from Bob)

[Bob Broadhead]

Hi tried e-bay but that was a waste of time!
thought I would advertise here all items open to offers but not willing to split more than the listings
items left-
original coils
BTZ -the 3 boxes wiring, pick ups and plates (was working prior to change-bike started first prod on the button).
original clutch hydraulic cable
rear wheel spacers brake side
Vitaloni Californian fairing mounted mirrors-pair. I replaced all nuts and bolts with stainless and re-shimmed one to stop it dropping down-gone for bar ends and gsx750 bars-mirrors are clearer for me.
original pistons rings, gudgeon pins and conrods-some wear on 2 of the pistons and 2 conrod little ends-but serviceable for some one on a budget (changed because engine needed to come apart and discovered that the crank had not been balanced properly at the breganze factory (engine had clearly not been apart since original build).

there is a video on you-tube of this SFC running with these pistons and ignition after a restoration in around 2010-it was then left in a garage untouched and unridden until I bought it in 2020 and imported to UK.

all items open to offers-South Yorkshire UK-07722299190

If you're still looking for rods, Red probably has a rubbish bin full of them. I didn't bother getting my original RGS rods and pistons back after he'd put Carillo rods and Ross pistons in the engine.

thanks Cam, there are plenty of old rods in UK dealers (and out of gauge crank parts) and one of them even offered to send me some junky bits (I didn't ask him, he offered, and then never sent them! the rods from Bob here are for an art installation, still seeking some junky crank odds and ends.
if the rods measure up OK, you never know I might actually use them. Bob has charged me a very reasonable price of a little more than drinking money.

You turning them into door handles Clem? Very hipsterish behaviour, I'm worried........

I have a friend who hacked out a recess in the concrete floor of his shed then dropped a buggered conrod (from his Guzzi I think) into the hole and poured clear epoxy in to fill it back to floor level. It looks pretty cool. A little window in the floor with a conrod in it.

Would make a great door knocker..a nice little cottage industry for bike nuts.

I think a Laverda conrod knocking might send shivers down a few spines.

I think a Laverda conrod knocking might send shivers down a few spines.

And the large hole in the door may be bothersome in Winter.
