Shit Spyda, you don't ask for much do you. The nearest thing to a Laverda manual is Parker's "Green Book" - and Laverdisti world wide have devoted years to picking holes in that...

Anyway the info I have says 200mls of 10W. But the 1200 racebike I built finished up with 15W as it dived too much.

10 should do the MV - it can not possibly be as heavy as a Laverda triple....

See you next weekend.

the Duc's with the 38mm ceriani are


860cc - 38mm Ceriani 180 - 185c

looks like laverdamania has a manual on it but you have to register to see.
