1988 Laverda Formula 500 TT2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Designed primarily to avoid Italy\u2019s excessive big-bore tax for new bikes, the first Laverda 500\u2019s were sold new as race bikes, but buyers received a box of road going bits to make road legal, thus avoiding the 35% sales tax.<\/p>\n

Owing to, and in support of the successful marketing strategy, Laverda organised a one-make racing category, the Laverda Formula Cup which ran in Italy and Germany from 1979 to 1981. Based on the road-going version, Laverda produced the Formula 500 TT2 specifically for the new racing category. Fitted with higher compression pistons, special camshafts, open racing exhausts and special light-weight fiberglass bodywork, power increased to 52hp while weight was reduced to 154kg; all Formula TT2 were painted orange, and a special fully faired version was produced for the UK and US markets.<\/p>\n

This beautiful example was raced in the Italian Championship in 1981\/82 and approximately 10 years ago underwent a full restoration by a recognised Laverda specialist during which the engine size was increased to 600cc. The bike runs perfectly, has been road registered on Italian papers and includes a 2-1 exhaust system. Located with our Italian agent the advertised price includes shipping & arrival charges into Sydney.<\/p>\n
