The Laverda Jota is a Laverda 1000cc Italian motorcycle suggested by the importers Slater Bros. of Collington, near Bromyard, Herefordshire, England. Based on the existing 1973-1981 Laverda 3C model that made 85hp @ 7,250rpm and reaching speeds of more than 130 mph, the new Jota made a big impression in 1976. The Laverda Jota model ran from 1976 through to 1982. The Jota is powered by a 981cc DOHC air cooled inline triple and had a dry weight of 234 kg.

This Laverda Jota was purchased by the vendor in 2000 who subsequently committed to a light restoration that was carried out in order to put the machine back onto the road. The engine was subject to an overhaul, including a new crank, pistons and valves etc. Described to us as running ‘very well’ and ready for its new owner, it is offered with a current V5C and a Slater Brothers certificate of authenticity. Some old MOT certificates are present, as are various receipts for parts and work carried out.
