Segment: Adventure
Production years: 1989, 1990
The 1990 MY Laverda OR 600 Atlas is the Italian response to the GS bikes from BMW. It has been designed as a direct competitor, and comes standard with wire-spoked wheels, a high-end suspension package, a dual seat, a sturdy frame, and a small luggage rack, which ensures this machine can tackle any road, paved or unpaved.
At its heart lies an air-cooled, four-stroke, 571cc, parallel twin cylinder engine paired to a six-speed manual transmission and can produce 50 horsepower and 50 Nm of torque. Add to this a dry weight of only 151 kg, and you get one of the most gritty adventure bikes in its class.
