Richard Taylor's Laverdas


Richard Taylor's Mirage and SFC1000.

The Mirage has now been sold to Rita Lie in Norway, and I had to sell the SFC 1000 to buy a house. Did I cry...

But I've now got an RGS 1000 to make up for it.

The SFC 1000 was by far the better bike - quick enough to surprise riders of Japanese bikes, but ultimately still too top-heavy compared to 'modern' bikes. Sounds wonderful, though.

The Mirage has now gone round the (kilometre) clock, but its still going well. Rust is nibbling at the frame, but it will proably last another 100,000...
