just received delivery of the 120 jota. took it for a spin, seems flat to me, maybe to used to 955i triples. any way my point is I need to take the float bowls off, its probably has E10 or other watery crap laying dormant there. Where can I get a good dealer for spares for everything Jota. thanks chaps. GB.
 
No dealers as such ........ If you search Laverda Spares on google , Bing or whatever you will find suppliers both here and abroad ..... or try eBay ( at your peril ) , or Wemoto ......... In the normal course of things Laverdas don`t need much in the way of spares for everyday running ........ cam and primary drive chains and spare cables are handy things to have in reserve , plus a copy of the Green Book Repair and Tune Up Manual ......

Removing and replacing float bowls shouldn`t present any problems , as long as the fibre drain bolt washers look ok , and the gaskets look healthy in their grooves .......

It will feel flat compared to a 955i ....... but all Laverda Triples , 180 and 120`s , thrive on revs ...( in their own , slow revving way ) ........ try keeping it between six and eight on the tacho ... ! ......

thanks for your time, its a learning curve for me I've a few modern triumph 3, I think I must step back 40 years..maybe my hair will grow back...G.
 
Italian bikes share a lot of the same parts so in your case similar age Ducati's and to some extent Moto Guzzi's have the same brakes, carbs, forks, electrics, etc
Your go to shop for those items in the UK is Ducati Paddy
 
There is Oct in Germany, also Laverdaparadies in Konstanz, Wolfgang Härter in Canada, Stein Dinse for Brembo and Dellorto Parts, Ducati Paddy, Redax in Oz and Gijs van Dyke in the Netherlands. I will not forget Ricardo Oro and Andregheto in Italy and some others. You will find the parts you need….
 
thanks for your help gents, sorted the carb bowls, all good very clean. took the bike out again for an hour started to get to grips with it now, seems to change its note after 5000 rpm, howls a bit :love: .It was the low tick over that was throwing me, compared to my Triumph triples I thought it was cutting out...GB🤘🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Any body in the Swansea area ride these?
 
The Swansea up near Newcastle north of Sydney in Australia. Funny how they sound like Pommy places.
