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.
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....
ciao Joachim

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.
