When I bought my SF, I experienced some recurring spark plug fouling on the right cylinder. I joined the Laverdamania forum and met a Laverda enthusiast who has owned Laverda S, SF, SFC, and three-cylinder models for 50 years.
Beyond his extensive mechanical knowledge, I want to take this opportunity to pay tribute to him because he is, above all, a kind soul, and I am proud to be his friend. All hail Bernard!
When I visited him, he had this S, this SFC, and a replica of an SFC that he had built for track use. He had modified the frame and installed an oil cooler.
I was already captivated by his SFC. A big thank you to those who had the magic touch when designing these Laverdas, and I told him, "You should build me one."
That's how this project was born. Frame to SFC dimensions, 2-in-1, rear hub for disc brake, rear wheel, saddle with storage compartment, and other parts to try and get as close as possible to an SFC.
Of course, it will always be a replica, a bit of a bastard, but bastard have their charm and are just as loved, and besides, it doesn't matter what the container is as long as you get the intoxication.
I will finish by thanking André, who is present on this site, for his contribution to this project by skillfully machining various parts.
This project is nearing completion, but I am missing two common parts and I am having trouble finding them.
If you have two original ignition coil clamps or copies for this 1974 SFC frame replica, I would be happy to buy them.
Or if you don't have any, please tell me where I could find some.
Looking forward to the next steps in this project.
Thank you.
