The Montjuic was UK only high performance model created initially by the UK importers Slater Brothers. Introduced in 1979, the engine was tuned with S1 cams, high compression pistons and a Sito exhaust and produced around 50bhp. The bikes were shipped to the UK as a very much stripped and bare machine. Once in the UK, the bodywork and fairing, made by Screen and Plastics, were fitted. The bike was named after the Spanish circuit following the Laverda successes there.
The late owner partially restored the Lavera over a couple of years, being completed to a very good standard with many new parts being used and new paintwork. Since completion, this correct numbers machine has been used sparingly. Accompanying the machine are some receipts and, importantly, a Slater Brothers certificate is on file. We are told the Montjuic was ‘running’ earlier this year and everything is believed to be working as it should.
