This is the only Laverda Di Fazio for open road, derivated from
the famous "Nessie" conceived by Mead and Tomkinson, this bike notably
ran the 1974 Bol d'Or.
Its special front suspension was built to solve the
problems of the traditionnal telescopic front forks.

Famous english specialist, Steve Winterton built this special Laverda 120°. His purpose was to build a bike that looked factory built rather than modified, so many parts from
different Laverda models were used. The specifications include a factory racing head, 78 mm slipper pistons, close ratio gearbox, full flow oil filter, 48mm brake calipers,
Brembo floating discs , and lots of custom made parts.
| Winterton son! His 750 Laverda twin is special as the engine contains a 270° crank instead of 360°. It delivers the power of 85cv and the sound is close to the Ducati L-twin engine one. |  |

 | The
Beast! Re-bored engine, HC pistons, twin spark cylinder head, twin IIS ignition,
Exup, Keihin carbs, 11 liters airbox, GSXR wheels, special brakes with custom
adapters, Race Tech gold valves on the suspensions, custom camshafts, ....................
This bike is probably one of the most powerful Laverda triple and it is still in progress. Doug is still working on it, trying to get the most torquy engine he can, notably thanks to a enormous and intelligent work on cams. |
