The bike had telescopic forks and dual shock absorbers in the rear, providing a comfortable ride on bumpy roads. The fuel tank had a capacity of 9 liters, which was sufficient for the bike’s city-focused use.
The Laverda 125 LZ had a stylish design with a classic look, featuring a tank with a distinctive emblem and a dual seat for the rider and passenger. The bike was well-built and reliable, but production was halted after only two years due to the company’s financial difficulties.
