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

....... Maybe fold a heavy quilt onto the tank to rest on ......... I used to do that with my sleeping bag when I did long distance with my SFC.

Yes, nothing beats a sleeping bag that smells like gasoline all night - perfect for sweet biker dreams. 😄
Positive side effect: Mosquitoes, coyotes and vampires don't come too close to you at night.

Part of my problem is due to the fact that I did long distance with the SFC with a rucksack. It buggered up my neck.
Then more recently, 4 years ago, I was operated upon which cut some of the nerves in my neck, leaving me with painful cramps. That and 50 years of buffeting on bloody motorcycles. Sit up and beg position suits me fine, with a light helmet. First criteria of choice for a helmet. I have a Bell that weighs in at 1100 g.

Pic was lucky and reduced res. Right place/time straight after heavy rain. Litchfield one of the few riding roads in the NT. Land of cruisers.

The bike though. Full credit to Redax. Nothing needs adjustment. Ride position, suspension; fits like a glove. My cornering a little sketchy but that'll develop. The power delivery smooth and builds to a howling off the clock rocket. Totally stable on unforging roads. Red knew what its future would be and built the bike for it. "I don't need a sidestand, lean it against a tree."

The next bit of NT road is a 1000k round trip so that's for another day.
