Having established its performance credentials with a succession of big three-cylinder sports bikes during the 1970s, most notably the fire-breathing Jota, Laverda emerged from a succession of financial upheavals with a new range of machines for the 1990s. The first of these was the 650 Sport, which used a 668cc development of the old Alpino '500' 8-valve twin-cylinder engine housed in a state-of-the-art aluminium twin-spar chassis designed by frame and suspension guru, Nico Bakker. A revised 668 Sportster followed (using the same engine) and then in 1997 the 750S arrived featuring a new water-cooled 747cc motor. No expense was spared in equipping the 750S, which featured upside-down Paoli forks and rear shock; Brembo Goldline brakes with braided hoses; lightweight Marchesini wheels; stainless-steel Termignoni exhaust pipes; and carbon-fibre front mudguard and heel protectors. Equally importantly, the six-speed gearbox – frequently criticised in the past – had at last been sorted. Introduced for 1998, the next development was the 750 Formula, a new high-performance sports model in the mould of the legendary 750SFC, created with production racing in mind. Engine lubrication and cooling were improved and the clutch strengthened.
The rare and original 750 Formula offered here has covered only some 8,800 kilometres from new and is finished in the desirable orange/blue livery. We are advised that it will have been inspected and run immediately prior to the sale.
