   Glovebox, lotsa chrome, yellow centerstand boots, homemade lookin' seatcovers, chrome grab bars, and god knows what lives underneath that paint....I would say it came from the other side of the planet.

   That bike is worthless. If that is a real SX200, the side panels are worth about $500.00 USD, the seats are wrong, the front disk brakes are missing, wrong levers on the handle bars. That is just from the picture. No clue about the possible mess under the side panels and inside the engine. Does the person have the engine and frame serial numbers listed ?

Cheers,
Roberto

3. "SX panels...."
In response to message #2
 
   That's assuming the panels are not hammered out of LI panels, as most of the TV/Special ones are.

Its far from worthless....even if it's been bodged to hell.The disc brake is there,all panelwork is worth money....and if it's actually got a real Sx200 frame under there then that's worth a shedload of cash.....to the right idiot on ebay...as is the engine.

Bye all.....Its been fun!!

9. "The real story"
In response to message #0
 
   BMC and I went to have a look at it today Just for fun. Its in a British Car restoration place. When we walked in we were asked if we were there to see Richard(wink wink).Do you want to buy some golf shoes? (several hundred pair leaning against the wall...no sais we, We are here to see the lambretta. Oh sais the guy and we are left to poke and prod.

Its scary....The cowels are reworked LI and weigh about 10 lbs each..I took off the engine side cowel to see numbers and a huge chunk of bondo fell off the bottom of the cowel. Its numbered as a SX 150, frame and engine. Horn cast is from a GP and the Innocenti badge is held in by a big blob of rubber cement. The disk brake is incomplete but present.The guys sais it starts and rides well. Although I have never seen this brand of carb before...Sort of a Del-orto but backwards... I didnt want to try...

All in all

Pretty Fuckin scary...

He only wants $4900. for it...god I hope no-one local buys it..
