1984 Laverda Jota RGS/RGA. Rare bike with low miles. Bike is original and is not restored. Bike was imported from the U.K. into the U.S.A. when new. I believe it came from Slater Bros. in England where they were modified after arriving from Italy.
I have owned the bike for about four years and am the third owner. It starts, uns, nd rides great. I only repaired what needed to be done after a long period of storage, o paint and decals are original. It has a Super-Trap exhaust system since new and carbs were jetted to match when new.
Here is what I did to the bike to make it road-worthy when I found it, ear in mind this work was completed a few years ago now:
Rebuilt the brake hydraulics.
Rebuilt the clutch hydraulics.
New clutch, s the old one liked to stick after use.
Rebuilt the carbs, ew petcocks, lush tank.
New windscreen, s old one was cracked
New battery, /p>
New tires.
Real head-turner with a very unique look and sound, nly one like this I have every seen...
