Ok then, a mate is wanting to sell his 1997 Laverda 750S.
Its a water cooled twin and reves like a 2 stroke, handles like a dream and has top notch suspension/brakes.

Yum, yum, can't possibly afford it but how muchie anyways? It looks like serious pose value for someone who values being seen on something different from the masses.

Ummm 10k but too friends 8k..... it would be under 10k all the same.
Millage is 16500km... I have some better pics on the way.

Nice bikes....almost bought one a while back. What I'd really like would be a modern version of the Jota!

Yeah mate, theres just something about emm aye.
Only found this other pic of the 750..... did ya's know that the fuel tank is in the center of the bike, it runs from the tail piece where ya fill it right up under the seat. Its a small bike were every thing is well cramed in.

We've got a 750S "Formula" here in the shop, not quite as good a value as the one Dangerous is offering, but seat of the pants stuff tells me it'd hose a 900SS in a big way.

And it must be the most sublime handling motorcycle I've ever ridden. We're talking elbow dragging shit here.

$8-$10K is a fucken bargain, someone buy it quick.

It is a bargen WT, but it dosent have quite the same power as the "Formula" nor does it have the sweet colours or as much c/f the 750S is a high strung motor.... and the FS is just that wee bit more.

Was that pic taken at that bar cafe place out by Matamata?
One model of Laverda had the fuel flap on the front fairing.

Those old Jotas could go for it.
That last pic is a good one of the bike and yes it does look like canty now.
The gateway in the other pic looked like the one at Matamata.
