My 1983 RGS I believe is virtually a unique bike. Most of you know of Malcolm Cox, he has been in the Laverda brand for over 50 years (Cox Engineering 1978) he bought two RGS 1000’s only one number apart and set about restoring and rebuilding them in every detail. I believe only three RGS bikes built to this standard by a Laverda professional exist today one was bought and is now being ridden in Israel. I have this bike, 1705, here in the UK, which was originally destined to go to Michigan in the U.S.A. Unfortunately the planned sale was not completed as the buyer passed away. Malcolm still has the third which is sold and being prepared now. I have a 50 page photo build book detailing the restoration of this bike 1705 and more photos, I am happy to send this to anyone who may be interested along with a walk round video of the bike running. The bike has been professionally recently refinished in Ferrari 812 Superfast Giallo/Yellow (I am a 45 years automotive paint specialist) 
with satin black wheels and Brembo brake calipers, complemented by the full Cox black chrome exhaust system and brake discs. It can only be described as stunning, it certainly does turn heads. It has completed 1200 miles since the rebuild. I am happy to ship globally from the UK and will answer any questions you may have. Price £11750 or there abouts.
