Hi from Somerset UK
Kickback:
Hi, I've had Hondas since the late 70's, most recently a CBF1000 but am now on a 23 GS1250 and early restored Laverda. I've always admired the 750 Phil Read Rep / Honda Britain models that made such an impression on me in the day and am thinking of a project bike. Looking forward to soaking up the knowledge first.
Laverda Dave:
Welcome to the forum Kickback. Enjoy the banter and advice that is always available here.
So, what's the early Laverda you have, a 100, 200twin, an early SF a pre-production V6 maybe 😎.
Rozabikes Tim:
Welcome Kickback.
The man you will need on this forum if you weren't aware already, is Haynes66 who either runs or has involvement in the Phil Read Owners Club.

Thank you, yes I have a 'camel back' tank 71 750sf. The engine was allegedly 'inspired' by the Honda CB77 and produced 60+bhp, which in 71 was quite spicey for a 750 road bike. I do love the thing... but get fed up with being asked "is it a Jota mate?" Ĝ ;D
