Segment: Touring
Production years: 1978, 1979
The 1979 MY Laverda 1200 TS Mirage has one of the biggest displacements ever to be fitted on a machine from this brand. At its heart lies an air-cooled, four-stroke, 1115cc, transverse three cylinder powerhouse paired to a five-speed manual transmission and can produce 73 horsepower and 54 Nm of torque.
It has been designed as a machine capable of going the extra mile, thanks to its cockpit handlebar fairing with a windscreen, engine cowling, dual seat and high-end suspension package, composed of a 38mm Marozcchi telescopic fork and dual Marzocchi shock absorbers in the rear, which increase comfort levels for both rider and passenger.
