Presuming 1996 counts at classic and not just old...

Use to have more, still have these three, the Guzzi is a work in progress, its bodywork is away being painted at the moment.

Anyone got an orange Laverda Jota to win the thread?

[spoodler]

The green Laverda pretty much reignited my enthusiasm for bikes when I was a bit down, bought and sold several "new" bikes but just couldn't get excited about them... bought the SF750 almost by accident and absolutely love it. It's only about sixty brake, but pulls really well, sounds fantastic and just makes me feel good.
The Morini 500/6 was an interesting bike with wonderful handling, but not really my thing - it always seemed to be a bit frantic (and anyway, I bought it for the missus really).
The Guzzi was a huge disappointment and was sold within the month - if I want a lumpy Vee twin I'll stick with my old Harleys..

Not a very good photo I'm afraid and probably not the bike most think of when talking about Laverda.

Not an Orange one, but a black Slater Special, the 7th and last they built.. though mine got a 1200cc big bore, bigger carbs etc..

[robsa]

Wow, some wonderful bikes already! If someone posts up an MV Agusta 750S We'll have the full set won't we?!
