How do you know if a LI 150 is a silver special ? The chassis no starts 208? Thanks

For one thing, it'll be an 150LIS frame, rather than LI150 or 150LI (standard LI, rather than Special). I do not know a number sequence for the Golden or Silver models.... soz.

That would be right for a 1964 LIS.

According to Vittorio's books the badged "Silver" Specials with the chrome ring were only made between May and Sept 1965.

I've been told today that it is a silver special but they only started adding the silver badge on the front in 1965.
