Welcome to the International Laverda Owners Club
The ILOC was founded in the UK in 1974, and current membership now exceeds 650. We welcome everyone - riders, restorers, dealers, enthusiasts or collectors, all you need is an interest in Laverda motorcycles. The club's membership is drawn from all walks of life, and the machines represented in the club are as diverse as their owners, from the early lightweight singles and scooters, through the larger twins, to the famous triples and later 'Zane' twins.
The main objective of the club is to enhance all aspects of Laverda ownership, from helping members keep their bikes on the road by drawing on the vast pool of technical knowledge and expertise that exists in the club, to promoting the social side of the club through events and rallies where members can meet their fellow Laverdisti.

Club Magazine
The club's bi-monthly magazine, La Vera Vista (broadly translated: the true sight) is professionally produced and printed with contributions from club members at large. It exists not only to inform, entertain and advise, but also for any member to air his or her own views and tell their own stories. It also carries free small ads (for members) and display trade ads.
Regional Meetings
Regional meetings are held at venues around the country (usually pubs), and these provide a good opportunity to meet other members, form friendships and become an active participant in our calendar.
ILOC Fund to support Off Road Competition
A successful scheme enabling members to "sponsor" current Laverda riders. Any ILOC member competing on a Laverda who can prove a start in an off road competitive event receives a sum of money (amount varies depending on the fund available). The scheme is managed by ILOC, but the fund is kept quite separate to club monies. It has helped keep several racers on the track over the last few years, maintaining a proud Laverda competition tradition.
