Hi peeps what is you opinion on the Serveta LI 150 ?
Worthwhile acquisition?
Reliability of bike and engine ?
Tune ability?
Any advise welcomed.
Price would be about 1500 pounds.

The build quality of servetta's are pretty good, good strong frames and engines components, the Spanish rear hub is the best to use, tuning wise? well anything from a upjet and a clubman to a full blown nutter RB kit with all the trimmings- yep worth picking up. The only problem I found was the motoplat electrics could be a bit weird, change to Italian Ducati points set up (or electronic if you wish) and you should have a great little scooter. Paul

is it these that have the meatier orifice for the cylinder to slide into as well? If it is then proper "200" conversions are simpler I understand.

With regards to the engine if its a "Special" then it will probably have the larger casing

Specials have an engine number starting 3***** they were produced from 1966 onwards and most have the larger casing. if it is just the LI then it will have a number starting 06**** or 07**** some of these are the larger type but a lot less.

Is this all based on the frame number or the engine number ? .........

the info is based on the engine number
however it is a Spanish scooter so the frame and engine number should be exactly matching.
