My New Project

[mauricejota7604]

Great project, funny how different models have cycles and please forgive me Brett but I have felt that the RGS was the poor cousin of the Laverda range but thinking back in my opinion were not much different to a 1200.
But now when I look around how often do you see a 1200 ??? and if a group of triples are around not often is a 1200 gracing the group
My memory of early 1200 colors well in Australia anyway was a soft fine metallic green,
Maybe the 1200s could become the new Jota's, now where are all of the 3CL's surely they haven't all morphed into Jota's.

And some hair...

I've got plenty hair Cosi, not as much as you, but then who does??????  :-*

The stripes are so daggily 70's they're cool again.  Look forward to seeing the results.

Didn't like the look of the 1200's then and still don't. But that doesn't mean I would deny anyone else the joy of loving them. Also looking forward to watching the progress and seeing the end result.

Grant, not sure I like the carpet on the Harley style footboards, and those white wheels with the red bodywork look very 851ish.

 

[Grant]

It's the latest thing, don't you know??????

Look forward to seeing it looking shiny and new! Oh to have the knowledge and skills (and tools) to do this!

I think you should get some wire wheels and a drum front brake ..... make the one and only 1200 drummer!

... I never saw a light metallic green 1200 in flesh, only red and blue. And the only pic I know is in Ian Falloons "The LAVERDA Twins and Triple Bible".

Yuck!!!

What the hell were they on in the paint shop when they came up with that?

 

[Grant]

At least this one looks a better shade of green.

Pretty bike.  Pity about the center stand.

My 1200 bought from Lloyd Bros in Hamilton is 1008 and was originally blue with the black sticker so a good chance 1007 was the same.

 

[Grant]

Interesting!

What black sticker?
