Our Verdict
A potentially interesting classic purcha
When considering a classic motorcycle of this era, the MOT history is only a small part of the story. Because the last recorded test was in 2022, you must request a fresh MOT or ensure the vehicle has been maintained under cover. Check for signs of fuel system degradation, such as perished hoses or carburettor issues, which are common in older petrol-driven machines.
Negotiate based on the documented service history rather than the MOT record alone. Since there is no aggregate reliability data for the Mirage, you should look for evidence of specialist maintenance. Inspect the electrical system carefully, as wiring looms on 1980s Italian machinery can become brittle over four decades.
Running costs for a 1981 Laverda Mirage will be significantly higher than a modern equivalent. While the 1116cc engine is relatively straightforward, parts for a vintage Laverda can be expensive and difficult to source, often requiring specialist importers.
Insurance for a classic vehicle of this type is best handled through a specialist classic motorcycle policy. Expect higher maintenance costs due to the need for specialist mechanical knowledge. The estimated annual running cost is heavily dependent on how often the vehicle is ridden and the cost of specialist parts.
Focus your inspection on the mechanical integrity of the 1116cc engine and the condition of the grey paintwork and metal components for signs of corrosion. Although the 2022 MOT recorded no defects, you should manually check the braking system, tyre age, and chain tension, as these are critical safety items that may have degraded since the last test.
Check the frame and swingarm for any signs of stress or previous repairs. Given the age of the vehicle, pay close attention to the condition of all rubber components, including seals and gaskets, to prevent oil leaks which are common in older single-cylinder engines.
This 1981 Laverda Mirage is a rare vintage machine with 92,319 miles recorded at its last MOT in March 2022. While the most recent MOT record shows no defects, the data is several years old and does not reflect the vehicle's current roadworthiness. Given its age and the scarcity of model aggregate data, buyers should treat this as a specialist enthusiast purchase rather than a standard commuter vehicle.
There is no aggregate MOT data available to provide a statistical reliability profile for the Laverda Mirage.
