When you say "solid mounts " do you mean small Li type mounts.I thought all Jet 200 mounts were the large silent blocks.I stand to be corrected by someone who knows a lot more about Spanish Lambretta's.

you might find them a little bit too firm for normal riding as they have little or no
give in them. You're probably better with decent 2 or 3 hole ones.

this is of course if you are talking about the bigger mounts

I came across a set of the large solid (no holes) silent blocks many years ago and used them in a mildly tuned 200 for a few years. They certainly had less give than the holey type. I only replaced them recently when rebuilding the engine because I didn't fancy 20 year old engine mounts in a tuned TS1.
