Thank you all for your wishes. Yes it is an interesting experience chasing down the CX parts. I have been in contact with Bob but unfortunately he works on a different time scale to the rest of us. :D
I have seen the Airtech site & it is handy to know but the body work I have is ok & I am mainly looking for cycle parts.
thanks for your suggestions

Hi,

My name is Joep and I live in Haarlem in the Netherlands. This weekend I bought an Saturno 500 from 1988. I’m super happy, but before I will ride it. I will do some checks and maintenance.

Looking forward learn all what you know about these bikes

Cheers Joep

check the timing belt, better replace it :)
You will need a flywheel puller which is available from Buzzetti

Buzzetti M35X1,5 ROTAX
Artikel Nr.: BZ5340

If your engine ist the original 500ccm one and not a 600ccm :)
If you need a guide....

shure this has 250ccm?
Im not used to this 60s Gileras.
But for me it looks smaller ;)

The VIN usually is located somewhere on the steering head
Mabe you will have to remove the fuel tank to find it

Thank you for the welcome! I recently learned that I like Gileras. The reason is that I found an original one-owner 1965 202 Super in Utah. It was apparently set up by the Factory, or by the Dealer, with a high handlebar, high exhaust, and light fenders. I don't think I need any parts, and I am ready to start the engine, after freeing the piston and installing new piston rings. I'd be happy to post a picture if that is acceptable.
