    Not anodized, a bit of Mother's polish shows that. Similar to my Norton, the metal seems to be one notch above the same era Japanese. But the castings are prehistoric on the Norton. The Laverda seems a combo of the best of the two. The Ceriani fork lowers, engine cases, etc are so good. I need to avoid over-polishing; I don't like the look. The cases are sand cast and rough but charming, IMO.
