Laverda rally, Nakusp B.C. Paul Leclair describing piston action while seated on Dan's SFC. Ian Watson's 1972 750SF. This bike has the following serial number... 750_8905, which led to an interesting discovery... after realizing that Andrew Stanford's 750SF has the number... 750_8909...these two bikes are only four numbers apart. Since all Laverda's were numbered consecutively <br />as they were assembled, it is possible that these two bikes were built on the same <br />day, or no more than a day apart, sometime in February 1972. It was now late in the morning and the crowd was getting restless. It was time to head out for a ride...
