Gilera Saturno

 

Welcome to our Gilera site saluting
some of the greatest motorcycles in the world!

This website is dedicated to the Gilera Saturno which was produced from 1946 to 1958.  Only 6,026 of these classic bikes were made, but they have left a lasting mark in the history of motorcycling.  Currently we are restoring a 1954 Saturno and I'll be posting progress and technical information on this project.  Please browse our Gilera Gallery and read abut the history of "The Mark of Champions"

The Discovery Museum in Brideport, CT had a great motorcycle exhibit.  Featured was this 1952 Gilera Saturno owned by Robin Lawrence of Riverside, CT.
"A unique exhibit of motorcycle history in a celebration of technology and design.  Noteworthy vintage and new motorcycles from around the world...custom bikes...technology displays...showings of motorcycle films in our cinema."

 

An ongoing project during the rebuild has been to create CAD drawings of parts that have been remanufactured or repaired.  Shown below are the complete magneto assembly and the rear brake assembly.  Both these parts were rendered in Cadkey.  As time permits I will be adding a section showing these CAD drawings, contact us if you have any questions regarding Saturno parts.
