Laverda (motorcycle)

Laverda (motorcycle) refers to a brand of motorcycles produced from 1949 to 2004. The factory was first located in Breganze Italy but after bankruptcy in the late 1990's, production moved to a factory up the road in the town of Zane.

Fans of the earlier models consider the zane-produced bikes to be inferior, in part due to their engines having a reputation for crank issues. This issue is mostly unfounded provided regular maintenance is kept up. Also ironically the prices for zane era bikes have climbed faster than the earlier models, in part due to the lower production numbers.

Laverda was a direct competitor to Ducati of the time, winning numerous head to head competitions,

Laverda was acquired along with Moto Guzzi by the Aprilia Group in 2002. The Aprilia Group was acquired by Piaggo in 2003-4 and the Laverda brand was mothballed.

Laverda motorcycles are sometimes referred to as the Alfa Romeo of motorcycles.
The most desired Laverda are the SFC from the earlier/Breganze models and the final gen 750S Formula from the later/Zane models
