Out and About on your Laverda.No bull,Just photos

Strange since the front is mounted in standard rubbers maybe the rear is to low? I'm going to have a look at it today, but first of to the mountains...

Weather was to nice to be in the shed to measure so rode it. After I compared distance petrol tank and top frame tube next to the headstock and it is similar as the Jota.. Could it be optical illusion? Have to wait for rain to remove petrol tank.. Thanks Pf1!

I would have thought number 69.. to be a 72 model SF, not a 70 model SF.

Is it a GTF?

Oh I love those 3C's I never had any luck with fat rear tyres back in the day, they always upset the handling. Is this problem solved now?

As long as you up the rim width, they're fine.

Hi Tom,
Specs varied according to country of destination but 69.. would have been made at the Autumn of 71, so more usually a 72 spec model whereas this one is 71.
I've seen the same thing on earlier bikes between France and Italy. Italy got the modifications earlier than the bikes destined for France next door.
