Built around Gilera's sport touring motorcycle platform, the 1989 Gilera Saturno 350 relies on a 350 cc (21.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant.
On the scales, the Saturno 350 measures 145 kg (320 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,410 mm (55.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 20-liter (5.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
