Laverdas in comics

[Jo]

Here in Germany we?ve Holger Aue (Moto Mania) who?s showing a Laverda 750 regularly:

Beside him, I know Ruggeri, who's also thematised many Laverdas in comics.


Are there any others out there worth to know ..?

Cheers
Jo

How cool! Bit of a bitser the one in the pic - SF0 or earlier exhaust with cross-pipe but twin discs.

In Oz not sure Fred Gassit ever featured a Lav - fuggin' Kwaka 9s and hogs used to feature prominently - ya kahns!!

Thats great! He's a nice enough bloke!

I met him several times. I remember one occasion when I asked him, why the Laverda 750 most of times comes out that badly. He mentioned that all of his stories have some real background with his old mates. And this Laverda 750 was driven by his friend Hinnerk and he was not the most talented of mechanics ...

Hinnerk who used to organize the race in Bremerhaven?

Time to bring this post up again. There also were Laverdas in Joe Bar comics too, here's one of them:

Marcel Speed on a very detailed SF1, even the CEV headlight is reproduced correctly:

Hi Gerald,
that's right, he's absolutely great, as he drives a 3c just like me!


But I couldn't find him as a comic, just as a 3D character:


Cheers,

Yes, Joe Bar.
I think that the author of Moto Mania was largely inspired by that comic.

They would make great T-shirts, passing Copywrite of course

How does he get his helmet on over that nose? Looks like closing the visor would be painful.

 

[Gerald]

His beak has a BNC connector, or was it bayonet coupling?.....

with two cilinders , Holger does not know much about Laverdas, he is more a Guzzi driver.
