Parts to Laverda 750 SF

sfcrgs said:
However, your example (probably unknown to many people) a reservoir 750 S, mounted on a SF, is accurate, but as the horn, or taillight, these accessories do not make a transition model provided .

Ditto for the first few SF2 models with only one brake disc and a 35mm fork (14000 series), which is not a transition model either.

I see that differently Bertrand.

The first SF2s with the 35mm forks still carried the SF1 homologation numbers, as can be seen on my own bike (frame #15569, DGM11068).  I have also observed this on another early "35mm" SF2.  According to the italian homologation certificate for the SF2, that model was introduced from frame #15651, for which the DGM12565 was issued on November 15th, 1973.

From these numbers, it can safely be stated that at least 82 further bikes (could have been anything from GT to SFC) were built before the SF2 finally got their DGM number.

BTW, my example was built with twin discs up front. :D

Will have to check the DGM on my SF2 n? 15832 which has 35 mm forks, twin discs, a 35 mm top fork clamp and a 38 mm lower fork clamp with spacers.
Transitional is probably not the right word for a situation where date, numbers and specifications are not directly related.
I have a couple of Gts for instance, one, a french market model has the higher frame/engine number by quite a bit but has the early frame, Grimeca brakes, metal shrouded forks and square mudguards. The other, an italian market model has the later frame, Laverda brakes, ungaitered fork round mudguards and an earlier number.
My 650 has rubber gaitered forks with sqare mudguards and of course a much earlier number than either of my Gts.
Call it off the shelf engineering and marketing if you prefer.

agree with Paul,my 73 GT is quite a high number amongst a lot of SF s on JLO"s list  but has the early frame and shrouds square guards,laverda hubs though,GT on the block, Smiths clocks .What was just lying around the factory? and sold by Slaters.
 
Ahhh! It is not very easy to be understood in their native language, while English with a translator .... it is mission impossible!

I also have a 14000, no sorry, a 15700 series (1974) with 35mm forks, and for me it is a SF 2. (fork 35 or 38, whatever)

I do not have an administrative vision (trade accounting records) Laverda models. Otherwise, SF3 do not exist, because their executives are all SF 2 !!! (my frame SF 3 is a ex-Kuwait Police)

For me, SF models are obviously different in technical terms, but especially aesthetically: SF - SF0 - SF1 - SF2 - SF3 are different in terms of their look before the rest.

It is very hard to explain this in English ... :'(

Hello everyone,

Thanks for all the great advice and tips about my Laverda and appreciate your help.
What to do with 750, I have not quite decided, but 100% orginal it is not. Anyway, I will take care of the parts so that the later has the opportunity to build back. How this 750 with tank and color when it left the factory, I have no idea. All I know is that this has been in Germany before it went to Denmark for many years until it now has come to the cold north - Norway.

Want a good classic Laverda and use it in the summer for pleasant drive with my friends. Have a dream to taken it to Italy and drive around the mountains and lakes of the north.

That sure will be more questions from me in the future when I start to fix it.

Greetings from north
