Segment: Clasic
Production years: 1970, 1971
The 1971 MY Laverda 750 SF, is basically the same as its 750 S sibling, the only major difference lying in the braking system. Even the SF suffix comes from the Italian "Super Freno", which literally meant "Super Brake", and it sported entirely new drum brakes, which have been designed by the company's founder, Dr Francesco Laverda.
At its heart, lies an air-cooled, four-stroke, 743cc, parallel twin cylinder powerplant mated to a five-speed manual transmission, and can produce 61 horsepower. In addition, telescopic forks in the front and dual shocks in the rear ensure superior maneuverability and a higher level of comfort for the rider.
