Laverda 3C 1000 | eBay

Pre oil cooler 3C. It's been stood for about 3 years so sold as a project. Matching numbers & Sachse electronic ignition fitted. So gave him a bit of choke & he turned over & started, ran rough but started. I'm not going pretend he's ready to ride but running straight away on a dribble of three...

Saw this pile of error-soaked info, this morning, while looking for something else.
What chance does a tyro have, if as ill-informed as this "article" would make them.
You might want to save it for a dark, wet evening and use it as a 'Spot the Howler' competion, at a Laverda Club evening?

I’m thinking of putting my Jarama up for sale as a Jota and make a few bob. Most motorcyclists I meet tell me “that’s a nice Jota, not seen one of those for a while and wanted one of those back in my youth but couldn’t afford it “. Well maybe now’s the chance to off load and get a real ?? one now prices are plummeting, well here in the UK anyhow. I’d then avoid the constant aggravation when I say “it’s not a fucking Jota mate”.
 
Another 'alternate history', who knew?
"Moto Laverda made one last go with a 1,000cc triple. It was obvious the company was attempting to take a shortcut to the full-liter displacement class; the three-cylinder was clearly Laverda’s parallel twin plus one. The fact was obvious from looking at the crankshaft; whereas a triple might be expected to use a 120-degree crank, but Laverda triple’s was flat, a compromise solution because Laverda encountered difficulty defining the interference value for each element of its long press-fit crank assembly. (At the time, Kawasaki’s 900 four did just fine with a press-fit crankshaft. Notably, when the Laverda grew to 1,200cc, it switched to a 120-degree crankshaft.)"
Best thing I can say is "It'd be good for the roses."

Laverda: A Look Back

Does this scream classic Italian Superbike, or what? The last version of the Laverda 750 SFC. Who wouldn’t love to have one of these in their garage today? (Laverda/) Moto Laverda was a unique case in the motorcycling industry, a labor of love from a family that created their motorcycles in a cul...
