Yeah, I'm back... F'kin knackered after visiting EVERY petrol station on the way through.. Plenty of valve clearances Mr Barker (rattles like a good 'un) That seat's harder than it looks too..

At least I didn't come home courtesy of RACQ or someone else's Ute this week.... :-X

Congrats Andy, I've now seen the 3C, the T3 & the X75. Fancy it being a Triumph that did the whole trip :P :LOL:
 
Fitted a pair of fibreglass sidepanels to the Fatlas.
They came from Boba and are really top quality.



In order to dig the 750 out of storage I had to drag my others out too. Here is a pic of the 3 amigos enjoying the Spanish sun.



I am taking the Jota to a classic show in the Bilbao exhibition centre on 14 -16th November. There is to be a special Laverda-only stand there and I managed to get a place for one bike on it. I'm guessing the remaining places will be taken by my friend Tito who has a space frame, Moto Martin, 3CL and a couple of tasty 750s.
If anyone (especially anyone from southern France) wants to visit the show I am happy to chat to them.


 
Today October 26 ... especially, we must pay tribute to Massimo Laverda, without him, the legendary 750 SFC and our other favorite machine, and this blog would not even exist ...

Grazie Mille Massimo
 
Bugger all on the bike over the weekend. BUT went to the Stones concert on Saturday night, the old sods have still got it.

your knowledge of drugs used by persons of pensionable age is impressive Drikko, a little too impressive perhaps :o :o
 
Removed forks, measured swing arm and rear shock dimensions then took a trip to Maxton to have the forks reworked and a custom rear shock built.

Bread and water for me for the next few months............... :LOL:

                                    Cheers
