The Barcelona motorcycle company Construcciones Metálicas Clua marketed its Clua model from 1955 to 1960 with bodywork designed by Pedro Serra.

I had it as a 1958 Clua 500, but you seem to know more than me.

Thanks gte for the point, the Clua bodywork by Serra was initially presented at the Barcelona Trade Fair in June 1956 offering two-stroke mechanics but its production was not started until 1958 with a two-cylinder, flat, four-stroke engine and only of 500 c.c. capacity. Of the 100 units estimated to have been produced, only the existence of 4 is known, two of them restored, although apparently only one has the original mechanics.
