I've been mulling this over for a few weeks now and seem to be coming to the conclusion that keeping the Laverda might not be such a smart idea. The simple reason is that the clutch on it is brutally heavy for my injured arm and I don't have the time to get Slater Brothers to make the necessary modifications before taking it with me. It does needs a new battery and the recommended airfilter from Slaters fitting (comes with the bike as does another bunch of service stuff and electronic ignition); rear tyre is pretty bald, too. In the plus side, it's been restored in the past and is in pretty good nick, plus the metalwork has been repainted by Beav a couple of years ago. Also comes with two seats - a short 1 1/2 sports seat and the original 2 person, more touring oriented seat. Not MOT or Tax atm and I don't have the time to put that on. Given the money that's invested and the fact that a lazy weekend should sort it, I'd like to see around 1800-2k, but I'd need to know ASAP before it goes into the container. Oh, and located in Ashford, Kent.
