Description from the seller
Gillet Herstal 150 cc
Rare specimen, only 3 known to exist.
This 150 cc version is almost impossible to find.
This motorcycle has stood idle for 50 years.
I’ve only rinsed it briefly with tap water.
Piston is seized (due to standing idle)
But the engine and gearbox shift and engage well.
Tires hold air and are still in good condition.
Brakes also work.
Simply make it runnable, not restored.
Engine and frame numbers are identical: 206486
Has original Dutch registration papers (sleeping/inactive registration)
A sales agreement is included.
Moto Légère - Dans-Son-Jus 1953
Lightweight motorcycle 150cc Pure and honest.
Note to foreign bidders: Collection only
I cannot ship the motorcycle.
It must be picked up from Sibculo, Overijssel

Disclaimer
Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
