some video footage here - the plan was to get footage of the Laverda but I didn't realise how close I needed to be for it to fill the frame -
I got bored and slipped past towards the end

the Lav 750S goes great - 92hp at 9000 - 190kg - fuel injected, very responsive - great little bikes

She went bloody great Jones, she spins up to the rev limiter without delay -
I was 15 - 20 seconds off the pace but was keen to ride home, not be driven home in the big yellow taxi...   :)
seriously tho - the gearing isn't quite right for that track, but short shifting here and there would have helped - I was off the gas much earlier than I needed to be,
I found myself back on the gas before the apex here and there (particularly turn 1 and 3) but next time I will do better -
I reckon I can make up 10 seconds without too much drama now I've done one day there - it is great fun for sure
Lakeside is next...

Saturday last (24/11) a test and tune day for the Laverda 750S bikes (same as mine)
I went out and did sessions on Lucrezia and the 750S - There was also a Ural there running on alcohol........ wasn't too reliable...

some pics






Pretty trick this Ural - twin plug head...
