SERTUM 250 VL
Hello, I hope you speak English, because my italian is horrible.
My name is Mark Visentin, from Canada.
Im looking at a few motorcycles advertised here on cybermotorcyle.com.
I wanted to purchase one when I come to Italy next spring to visit my
relatives. I was looking at one motorcycle in particular that says "forcella
stampata". Can you tell me what forcella stampata means in English?
thank you so much

Babelfish gives "printed publication staple".
That's why they call it Babelfish, I guess. Ed.

Sertum 250cc Identification
Hello friends, I am the owner of a Sertum 250cc w/ rear suspension.
This is very different from the photos I am seeing on the web, this motorcycle
has 2 horizontal tubes with springs in them under the engine similar to
the Guzzi 500 Falcone. I would like to find the year and the model
and possibly photos for this particular bike, and any other info that would
help me in the restoration process. The motocycle frame number is
13000. If anyone has any information on this bike, could you please
contact me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hello to all!
I have owned a Sertum 250VL since 1981. I know little about her
including her age! By the pictures I have seen on this site she appears
to be older. The SN 3043 might be of help if there are any listings available.
Most of the paint seems to be original except for brushed touchups from
accidents. The color is a rich red with White stripes on either side
of the center bead. They are about 4mm. wide. She must have
been dropped a Few times or just mishandled. Once owned by a merchant
marine I know she is a veteran world traveler. I haven’t driven her
since 1982 but I am planning a full restoration in the next 2 years.
I would enjoy hearing from any and all fellow Sertum owners. I
need literature, parts books, and photocopies of these motorcycles to aid
in my project. Due to the damage on the machine I will need a replacement
light/horn switch/button mounted on the handlebar. A correct
taillight replacement or a good picture to make a copy would be of help.
Handle grips, foot peg rubbers, starter rubbers or anything available for
this motorcycle will be appreciated! Thank you! --

Good evening,
I am restoring a 500cc Sertum. The bike was a military bike and
it was painted in red after the war. I haven't yet decided which
colour it will be but I am struggling to get the colour code for the paining.
Someone told me that Lechkler is making both red and green Sertum colour
but no one is able to tell me more.
Do you know the code for both red and green?
Thanks a lot

Dear Sir,
For quite a long time I have been trying to find information about
Sertum on the Internet. The only thing I ever came across is the
forum on the "European motorcycle universe", with only a few messages.
I have recently transported my Sertum motorcycle to my garage and decided
to restore it, but since I cannot begin work without technical information
or other data, information about it would be invaluable.
I hope you can help me, or at least tell me where I can find information
about Sertum (an URL address or email). I believe the one in my possession
was produced in about 1938. The capacity of the cylinder is probably 250ccm.
It may, however, be 500ccm, I cannot be certain since I have not as yet
opened the engine. The chassis number is *12367* , and the engine number
*10660*.
I look forward to your reply, and any information you can provide me
with will be appreciated.
Sincerely yours
Uros Piperski -- piperski at hotmail
I have a workshop manual and an owner's manual for a 500, and spare
parts catalog for the 250 VT Plus some more - articles, road tests - that

Dear Sir,
I am very interested in motorcycle. I am now trying to restore a Sertum
of 1932-1935. I do not know what its original colour was, if it was black
or red. Could you help me to get this information?
Thanking you in advance and looking forward to hearing from you soon
-- Gianluca Chiti
Hello Gianluca and Euro Moto mailing listees,
Sertum was founded in 1922 by Fausto Alberti. Before that date, Sertum
was well known for it's manufacture of precision instruments. The factory
was situated in the city of Milan (Italy). Sertum started with the production
of a 174cc side valve single, soon followed by a 119cc two stroke single.
In the thirties Sertum had a variety of bikes in production: singles, twins,
with side-valves, but also overhead valves and overhead camshafts. After
the World War II Sertum was one of the first factories which was able to
start production again. At the 1947 Milan Motorshow they showed an impressive
variety of new models. In 1948 Sertum hold together with Bianchi, Gilera,
Guzzi and Parilla 97.74% of Italian registrations for motorcycles. It was
a big factory at the time, the first post war years were definitely Sertum's
golden years.
Unfortunately thereafter it went slowly bad for the factory, and in
1953 the factory was closed. Many factories were to follow later in the
fifties.
Sertum also has a racing history. The brand is well known for it's long
distance racing victories (like the Raid Nord-Sud, Milan-Taranto) and it's
ISDT victories.
Anyway, your Sertum is made between 1932 and 1935. It is very little
to go on, but one of these models could be it:
Sertum 120-S (1933-1938)
Sertum 175 VL (1931 - 1946)
Sertum 200 Batua (1931 - 1939)
Sertum 250 VL (1931- 1939) --> not to be mistaken with the post-war
250VL (1947 - 1953)!
Depending on the model, I can give you a description of the bike, colors,
technical specifications etc.
