The Laverda triples, both the 180 and 120 Jotas, apparently had 38mm Marzocchi forks as standard. Is this right? Could anyone furnish me with their dimensions or drawings of them -- Italian factory manuals tend to have good technical like drawings of the forks and chassis components. Also some close up/detailed photos of some in place. Know of any Laverda breakers or specialists?
Have a look at the links page on this site. It was very useful when I needed bits for my old Jota. http://www.richtea.demon.co.uk/laverda/links.htm hth, JB
I have the triple/twins "green book" and accordingly it says: err, many things, and is very detailed in relation to year and model. For instance it says: Front Forks: Ceriani35mm Stanshionto Dec 1975 (twin frame no xxx triple frame no1570|) thereafter 38mm, Marzocchi 38mmfor the 1200 after frame no1367 and subsequently the 1000 with frame no 6078. Spring rate Ceriani 125kg/cm+or-5% Marzocci NA. The book has some good exploded diagrams and I can Fax/get scanned and e-mail if you need.
