SUMMARY
One of only 150, this US-market Laverda is badged as an American Eagle and based on the 750 SF Twin. Benefitting from a recent engine overhaul, frame re-paint and wheel rebuild, this matching numbers example is presented in good overall condition and in running order.
DESCRIPTION
- In the late 1960s, Italian manufacturer Laverda teamed up with McCormack International Motors to distribute Laverdas under the American Eagle name into the lucrative USA market
- Basically this collaboration was 'badge engineering' as the models were almost identical to their European family
- US stunt legend, Evil Knievel, used an American Eagle in the late 1960s and helped in their marketing
- Only about 150 bikes were ever sold, not helped by the introduction of the all conquering Honda CB750
- This matching numbers example is presented in good overall condition and in running order
- Same owner for last 15 years and has undergone a recent engine overhaul and frame re-paint
- Recently fitted with electronic engineering along with a wheel rebuild with stainless spokes, rewire and carb rebuild
- Rare model and a great opportunity to own a very unusual Laverda
- UK-registered on a current V5C
