People have been doing that to Lambrettas' for years, an Li125 frame is identical to a TV200, those magic numbers and a few bolts on bits triple the value. The only unique part of a TV200 is the gearbox, which is like LeMan gearing so no one wants them! No good for mincing about on Brighton seafront
