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

Grant have you got a side by side couple pics, old tank and new on the bike. How many litres extra. That RGS that went around the world 20 years ago had a 35-litre tank extension, yours looks much nicer.
 
OK, done the comparison.
Old tank, 18 litres, new tank 23 litres.
Result!
Neither tank completely full, as in each case the filler cap is central on the tank and the bike only has a sidestand.
But valid in real world fill-ups.
I now have just over 1 UK gallon extra.
Should comfortably give another 40 odd miles range before reserve.
Should be useful during my Highland tour this summer where service stations can be few and far between and maybe not open on Sundays.

Nice.  Next job is the badges.  I bought some little pots of red and green modeller's enamel and a fine brush the other day for that exact job.

Lee will appreciate the effort you have gone to fixing up his badges for him
 
Look great Lee.

I ordered a set of Jet drills from Weber yesterday, l,m going to tackle this flat spot myself. Away for work, but drills should be waiting for me when I get back.  8)

Where are you up to with this flat spot, CK? Seems to me you need someone familiar with Dells to spend a measly half an hour and they should be able to sort it. Not that complicated tracking down what you describe. And you can watch and learn  :-*

What you haven't told us is how many turns from 'in' the pilot mixture screw is wound out. A very good start when looking to sort a fluff at low revs.
 
What shape advance curve is throwing a spanner in the works?
Jet drills! A couple of pairs of pilot jets of guaranteed size surely will see it mixed correctly.
