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

[TeddyG]

the other modification we have been working on while building the Twin, fitting a 180 rear tyre on our Laverda triple race bikes
Not an easy task by any means, we machined custom final drive gears/Output shafts to allow us to move the front sprocket out by 12mm
Turned out we moved it by 11.2mm but that was enough anyway and then, a new swingarm and cush drive to relocate the rear sprocket out by 12mm and then total redesign of the Sprocket cover with the outrigger bearing to support the Output shaft
So I believe, we now have the only Laverda in the world running a 180 rear tyre
Better result in better lap times as this has not been a cheap exercise that is for sure and we still need to do the same for the back up bike

And our next modification that we are doing to the clutch is going to be even way more expensive, FFS
Some hopefully exciting news to come in the next 8-10 weeks, if the clutch modification works

180 1

180 2

I like this!!

Nice GTL

Nice GTL

It is. My friend Bruno.
As bought in Italy.
Plenty of fine Laverda motorcycles to be had, just keep away from the fashionable ones.
I would have liked a GTL if I hadn't already got all I need. Probably one of the best bikes Laverda built.

Looks sharp, Otto. Not a street bike I gather? No lights?

This is one off five frames Harris build for German import company Moto Witt.
One raced in Bott in Germany, one in AMA America and this one in the nineties in the Netherlands.

Found this today at a flower shop in Meina, Lago Maggiore. Moto Guzzi Airone 250 from 1953, did not ask whether it is for sale.

I'm guessing that's a later carb. Suggests it's a runner.

looks like, did not ask but seems to be a new Dellorto

 

[Paul Marx]

Lovely floor tiles.
Original Dell'Orto has the float bowl on the side. An MD something.

Yesterday I drilled out the retapped M7 nut and today I had the M6 nut welded into place.
