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

Rob, the tank is a brand new fibreglass one from Boba, shouldn't leak. The original tank had been welded several times and was a complete mess.

Cam, discs are a straight bolt on. Speedo drive fits as on original set up, same offset on the carriers. No machining required.



These clip ons are off an RGS. Vince, if you want higher rise clip ons in 38mm why not get a set of RGA/Executive clip ons?
 
OK so the disk carriers must be 27mm offset. I've been keeping an eye out for floating disks with 27mm offset and the same 6-hole bolt pattern as our Laverdas for years but never seen any for sale. The disks on your bike look new so I thought you must have found a supplier who sells them off the shelf.

Maybe I should be looking for Bimota disks as Steve suggests.
 
Today I got the orphan 3C out and my passenger was my 70 year old mother in law that recently lost her husband she hadn't been on a bike before so I thought I did a good deed firstly introducing her to motorcycling and completely distracting her from the recent loss of her husband, well seems as though she must of enjoyed herself as when we returned the question was when are we going out riding next :D :D :D

Good Luck with that Cam :D
I have been watching out for another set for years and have never seen a set come up. >:(
Same as the ones on my SFC 1000 , Which I am informed are off a Bimota.
Stein D is Germany did have some Speigler 320's in the same dimensions so I bought a set of them as spares.

Cheers

Available here but not sure of the offset.

Not too much.
Stripped a set of carbs, dug out the next bike to work on, but now it's beer o'clock.


 
Riding the f..ing things always provoques strange reactions.
When riding my 100 around a track paddock a few years back, my son was told by a twit from the french Laverda club (is that a euphemism?) that he should stop, he was going to wear it out.

Wound my new andychain cam chain on using the old chain and then carelessly let the exh side drop down the chain tunnel, 2hrs fishing with various bits of wire failed to recover it, so off with the exhaust and the chain pedestal to finally thread it back up and securely wire it until I'm ready to hook it up. Lesson learned!

Wrong PCD Davo, These are the later ones with 80mm PCD and shallow offset.
The direct fit ones need a PCD of 101.5mm, 80mm centre hole and 26.5mm offset.

Thanks for the link Bruce. 299 Euro each works out to around $940 for a pair. Probably over $1000 by the time they land here in Aus. Bit pricey for me at present.

According to the Stein Dinse listing, it fits Guzzi and Bimota, but doesn't identify which Guzzi model.


PS: How good is your Japanese?

Went for brekky up the mountain and to hand out Concours flyers, at the servo I was surround by baby duclings, a morini and even an Aermacchi HD, one of the ducs was our friend Peter White who used to race Lavs and former owner of Mark's Spondon, also there was Gavin D'Allosto, Concours winner in 2012 (I think), the man who donated his $2k of prize money to MAW.

Nice group of tiddlers :)

Had a bit of time thinking about my paint scheme. For the tank logo I'm thinking: the slanted logo with the old 'Moto Breganze' top and bottom and the flat wings at the ends in Orange against bobas carbon.
 
spent Saturday at Reds shed. changed a couple of oil seals and the front brake master , which had failed at the end of the freeway. made stopping at the lights interesting.
also changed the swing arm bearings, bushes and pivot pin.
she stops, starts and goes round corners like a new one,
Thanks Red.

My Japanese is non existent, but I can work a currency convertor, 48,000 Yen = $502 Plus shipping. >:(
They do look identical to mine though.
I just did a Google translate and the final sentence is "Sold Out"

Fortunately I bought mine when the AUD was powering, total cost was under $700 including freight for the pair.

I think that the Guzzi's ran a 300mm version with the same mounting dimensions. (Bevel Heaven had them for a while at about $299USD each)
