The 1977 MY Laverda 500 Alpino sports an air-cooled, four-stroke, parallel twin cylinder engine paired to a six-speed manual transmission, and can produce 44 horsepower and 45 Nm of torque. It addresses riders who want a gritty, half-liter, naked machine, and with the added benefit of a genuine Italian design and craftsmanship. Standard features include a Marzocchi telescopic fork in the front and dual, five-way adjustable Marzocchi shocks in the rear, a dual, 260 mm disc braking system in the front and a single 260 mm disc in the rear, as well as chromed elements, from the exhaust to the forks, as well as the engine accents.
