Hi there,

I'm starting a Montesa Cota 200 restauration. My Grandfather bought it at the Montesa factory back in the time (first hand). She stayed maybe 30 years without starting.

Could you help me with find the documentation I need (I speak Spanish so it might be easier to find one). I already have the parts plans in exploded view, but no technical documentation...

I gently kicked it, and there’s no problem with the engine (I guess so, I could have kicked it entirely). It’s my first restauration and I have some very basic knowledge in mechanic, but it’s my first time in mechanic.

The bike looks great, I don’t think there’s any rust on it. I’d like to remove the tank to clean it before filling it, what do you think about it ?  I don't want to start it without checking the tank and his state (idk if you know what I mean, English isn't my first language). I'd like to check several parts before starting it.

Also, there's the black part on the top of the shocks absorber (back) cracked, where can I find parts if they're still available ?

Thanks for your help !

Ride safe ✌🏻
