Sanglas 500S (1978-79)

The Sanglas 500S was a Spanish-made motorcycle produced from 1978 to 1979 by Sanglas. It was known for its sturdy build and durability, as well as its smooth ride. The 500S was powered by a four-stroke, twin-cylinder, air-cooled engine that produced 36 horsepower. It featured drum brakes, a telescopic front fork suspension, and a swingarm rear suspension. The motorcycle had a top speed of around 110 km/h and was capable of traveling long distances on one tank of fuel.

Today, the Sanglas 500S is a rare and sought-after vintage motorcycle among collectors, particularly in its native Spain.
