Laverda 3CL

Description

1973 Laverda 3CL, This bike is in excellent condition and has been kept unused in a private collection in the south of France since 2007, before being recently recommissioned for road use.
Finished in a stunning orange Jota paint scheme.
Introduced in 1972, the ‘3C’ was the first of Laverda’s much admired family of classic three-cylinder ‘muscle bikes’ that would do so much to establish its reputation as one of Italy’s foremost purveyors of high-performance motorcycles. Displacing 981cc, the new engine had a character all its own. No longer conceived along Honda lines like its twin-cylinder predecessors, Laverda’s triple was a twin-overhead-camshaft design with 180-degree ‘flat’ crankshaft. Following the introduction of the Slater Brothers-inspired Jota super sports version, the 3C continued as the 3CL sports-tourer, with the 80bhp engine and 125mph capability; and although slightly slower than the Jota, the less highly-stressed 3CL is considered by many Laverda aficionados to be the more enjoyable machine to ride
