The way the bidding is going it looks like the coronaryvirus thing is driving up Laverda prices.

I wonder what is inside the motor .......

Thin web rear wheel and LaFranconi's ........ maybe the seller is right when he says "The running gear seems to be based on a 1977 1200 Laverda."

I'll take the non standard instrument cluster if the buyer isn't satisfied with it ....

Helo Jim: FYI Wolfgang told me he was going to Germany from March 21st for I believe about four weeks.

He was ....... seems the shit ticket shortage has made him change his mind.

Meanwhile on the other side of the world an untidy 1200TS sells for ?4,050, which seems like a reasonable price for an auction in these times.

Whilst a much more complete/tidier 1200TS Mirage did not manage to sell:

That's a lot of money for a project bike but they always sell easily.

Yep - they were estimating 1,5 - 2k which would have been a good deal.  Guess it will depend on many things, not least the state of the motor.
