Series 2 Eibar Li 150 (Winter model): built from 1964 - 1965 - frame numbers start around 040001 and run up to 052000+ As Spanish scooters had matching frame and engine numbers (mine has ) yours should fall into these years being 150Li 045774

check gearbox ratios if thinking of tuning

Li150 Spanish
" This gearbox has a massive gap between 3rd and 4th and I don't recommend it, change the box to Li150 Italian.
Definitely don't fit a 16 tooth sprocket!"

Never done anything with mine i know its the "bad one" so left it as standard it runs ok

Hi i pulled the gears and checked the ratios and there the same as i have in my imola motor ie Li 150 italian . Also double checked them with the gear ratio chart on mb site and that confirmed it. Thanks for the replies.
