Artwork detail

[art #481]. Limited Edition Print by Steve Dunn.

Here shown in silver, the 1983 Laverda RGS1000 represented a shift in Laverda's focus from raw performance to a more refined sport-touring experience. Powered by a 981cc triple-cylinder engine, the RGS1000 produced 83bhp giving ample performance for long-distance touring while still retaining the character and spirit of Laverda's earlier sportsbikes. The engine was smooth and torquey, offering strong acceleration and a top speed of around 130mph. The RGS1000 was designed with comfort and practicality in mind, featuring a more upright riding position, a well-padded seat, and comprehensive instrumentation. The bike's fully enclosed bodywork provided excellent wind protection, making it well-suited for long rides. Despite its touring focus, the RGS1000 retained Laverda's signature handling characteristics with a well-balanced chassis and responsive suspension that made it agile in the corners. The bike's design was elegant and sophisticated with clean lines and a distinctive front fairing which incorporated the fuel filler. The gruff 3-into-1-into-2 exhaust system also set it apart from its competitors. The Laverda RGS1000 is celebrated for its combination of performance, comfort, and style, making it a standout model in the fast sport-touring segment.
