Similar to what I did. Wanted to get my head under 3C to remedy stripped sump plug it came with.

Roll front wheel into 'wheel vice' and clamp it so bike stays. Slide rear lift under tyre. Jack alternately. These are designed to go under frame. I welded tyre vice as seen on front one. So pretty stable. And goes up higher than needed. Nearly a metre.

The dog is not happy with the setup
You can tell when a dog is happy, they wag their tail.
Just wondering what the badge on the sidecover of the Le Mans says. It looks like a Mk II 850 but the (fuzzy) badge seems to say CX 100? What does this mean?
Cheers,

40th birthday for Lola today. For a present she got a new license label for $63 as a 'Classic Vehicle', instead of the usual 500 bucks.
That'll pay for a few tanks of gas

US market MKII. Importer didn't want to deal with clearing various regulations with the 850, since the 1000 engine (SP aka T3 & Spada) already cleared at considerable expense. So they had the factory ship with these. Gave it the cheesy CX100 tag. Lower compression, smaller valves and square slide Dellorto's. 348 copies produced. Make about the same power, just more linear. Lower compression actually a bonus with today's low grade fuel. Since I cant get a french blue MKII, I settled on this low mile that has 'badge engineering' working against it. I's fast!

Zipper (dog) is happy when his stub is in the air.
I think the Honda came after '79?
Anyway, Laverda forum right?

Fitted a new set of Bridgestone bt016’s today in preparation for my fun day with the Ducati Owners Club Victoria at Phillip Island on Monday the 4th of December. New rear sprocket and master cylinder, fitted the 3into 1 as well. Going to put a bit of exhaust packing around the baffle to temper the bellow
. Looking good weather wise and there should be four Laverdas on track hopefully carving up the ducatis

your Output shaft is not set up for an outrigger bearing eitherBet that output shaft does'nt have two grooves like mine
from the left
Custom output shaft moving front sprocket to the right by 15mm with outrigger bearing
Next in the middle, custom output shaft with standard sprocket position but with outrigger bearing
Last on the right, 6 x billet 4th gear blanks for the Mainshaft, am tired of breaking the standard ones
