MV Agusta 750 America and Magni
MV Agusta 750 America and Magni are iconic classic Italian motorcycles which are derived from the 750 Sport. However the America signalled the race replica fashion to come in the next decade and beyond. MV Agustas were still all hand made to order, were still exceptionally expensive and really were the most exotic motorcycle on the planet, until the factory closed in 1980. Arturo Magni used to run the race team until they withdrew from racing in 1976 due to noise restrictions. You can read more about this extraordinary man in this article https://www.motorcyclistonline.com/arturo-magni-former-mv-agusta-team-manager-turned-manufacturer-dies-at-age-90-motorcyclist-magazine/ After which, he set up on his own augmenting existing MVs and using his expertise on many other marques such as Honda, Suzuki, BMW and many more over the years. MV Agusta was Magnis first and pervading love and he created the chain drive conversion for these rare machines. Lots of Magnis are old crashed MVs with some cobbled together Magni parts from many other motorcycles and these are not really collectible at all. A lot of the more modern Magni parts for MVs, although very high quality, are not like the original parts as Aturo’s son Giovani is still producing components for these conversions.

Laverda 750SFC
The Laverda 750 SFC is a rare homologation special which has shadowed the 1974 Ducati 750SS green frame for its entire life as a collectible Italian classic motorcycle. These are not to be confused with the Laverda 750 SF, they are completely different motorcycles at completely different values. With a fantastic race history and styling that certainly makes a statement, these were a race bike with lights. They are very rare, very easy to fake and a whole load of fun to own and ride. Many green frame owners have added these to their stable as the two really do live together side by side. It’s less well known than the Ducati, but has always been around half the value, and rising, historically, so they are not cheap. Now is a really great time to acquire a genuine investment grade example. There’s a lot of pressure under prices which consistently rose in parallel with the green frame for a couple of decades.

Laverda Jota
The Laverda Jota is a legendary motorcycle which held the fastest motorcycle in the world for a few years. These brutal triples are charismatic and charming in equal measure when they’re correctly set up and all the work has been done satisfactorily. A well sorted Laverda Jota is a bundle of laughs, outside of the city environment, and draws crowds wherever it’s parked up. This article Beware of the Laverda Jota explains in great detail the problems with Laverdas due to age, less than desirable factory specification and poor maintenance. On the other hand, if you want to know what a properly sorted out Laverda Jota is like to ride, you can read our Laverda Jota road test. They really are worth the trouble of sorting out, but it is a very costly proposition. Because someone who makes kitchen cabinets (for example) is in a great position in the owner’s club does not mean that they are the type of engineer to set the machines up and resolve any problems with them. The only people we use to do the engineering and supply parts for our Laverdas is Laverda Scozia, they really are the only people in the market to trust.
