LAVERDA 1200 Models/Series Timeline, Specifications & Photos

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.

Manufactured for over four years, the Laverda 1200 had an air-cooled, four stroke, 1116cc engine which developed 73 HP at 7500rpm and a torque of 54 Nm at 6000rpm.

The 1978 MY Laverda 1200 Jota America sports an air-cooled, four-stroke, 1116cc, transverse three cylinder powerhouse mated to a five-speed manual transmission and can produce 73 horsepower and 54 Nm of torque. It was designed specifically for the American market, and has an overall design that can rival with the classic cruisers one finds State-side.

Standard features include 38mm Marzocchi telescopic forks, dual Marzocchi shock absorbers in the rear which are preload adjustable, and a high-end Brembo braking system, composed of dual 280 mm discs in the front and a single 280 mm disc in the rear.
