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

The Ago video with Hailwood commentary is a great time capsule. Dress codes, the way the riders behave and ride (hardly looks like they are leaning, eh Marquez!), it really accentuates the way things have changed.

That seems like a strange comment from the Land of Redax, Vince.

Yes for Laverda-specific bits and work, but you blokes have all that F1 infrastructure and cottage industry based on the vintage car and bike scene. Maxton for example, nobody else does Cartridge kits for 30-year-old bikes and so much of the business must be classic TT and racer based.

It was interesting spending time there, Vince. I intend to write an article about Maxton and what they can do for Laverdas. I will post it on the Forum, in due course.
 
After a week of summer rain the sun came out at last, and I was able to try out the new clock and voltmeter 👍

Humidity was through the roof, so half an hour and 26kms was enough, but also a good shakedown to ensure that my new fusebox and associated “wiring improvements” weren’t likely to cause problems 😁

Everything worked as expected (praise be) so feeling good for the upcoming adventure to the big Burt challenge (y) :D

P.S I had to make a new panel to accept the fusebox, RR and ignition box, which was a bit of a challenge with all the different levels, if anyone wants a template let me know (y)

nice to see you mounted the reg/rect with the fins vertical, why dont more do that, it is thermally far superior, and the fins are there to dissipate the heat, if they are not in a directmoving airflow, then thermal currents come into play.
