Re: What did you do to or for or with your Laverda today?

Looks cool.
Only comment I would offer is to extend the tailpiece to cover the frame tubes sticking out the back.
Or is it just the angle the pic was taken from?
 
I went to work on mine (recently cleaned and polished ready for the MOT...)

Of course, It's pissing with rain now I'm ready to go home  :'( :'( :'(

Will wait for a break so I don't get it too dirty again.

Tried lots of different dimensions but this is what, to my eye, works best, frame rails were already shortened so I'll just chop a bit more off to suit.

Not much. 91 degrees F here, and 102 in Sacramento up the road.

Had the builders round to quote to put a concrete slab at the back of the house to move accumulated storage from the garage to a shed to be built there, so I can claim more of garage for bikes / workshop.

Wasn't my Laverda... but I managed to drop a 5mm x 15 stainless hex socket head screw into RHS cylinder through the spark plug hole.
Took some head scratching and fruitless efforts to grab it, a break for dinner and a couple of wines, aha, vacuum cleaner!!
A few bits of plastic tube & hose & gaffa tape to reduce it down enough to fit down the plug hole, took a few tries but its out.

What a good save!
 
Had the Konis off the Triple rebuilt by Greg @ Dam Laverda  8) and plonked them on the Twin.

Should help keep the sparks from the Banana to a minimum  :LOL: thus prolonging its life  ;)
