One of the last versions of Gilera’s single-cylinder, the Speciale Strada was produced from ’66 to ’70 (this bike is mistakenly titled as a ’64) and was capable of 70 miles per hour thanks to 10 and a half horsepower.
This example was one of the many imported by Sears, and has plenty of patina (if you’re into that). There’s plenty of rust and scratches to deal with, and there may be an electrical issue with the rear brake light wiring, but this is a cheap way of getting into classic, small-displacement Italians. Find this Speciale Strada for sale in Winchester, California with an unmet opening bid of $1,750 or a BIN of $2,750
