    This is my typhoon and NRG. The frame number is not a seperate piece welded on, it's part of the frame pressing. I have known of people having a frame number engraved on a piece of flat steel plate then spot weld it on the frame near to the original place. Lambretta auto's do this as you cut out the frame where the number is situated ! No m.o.t man will know how the original frame number look's unless he has one himself !

    The NRG is different to typhoon, just get a plate engraved and weld it on. I have a 125 frame but need's a bit of welding !

    I could get some photos up in the next couple of days, it's round a mates house at the minute. I had my 250 twin engine in the frame so had to cut sides out, I have put these back in and you won't see them once built up ! Main stand pivot needs remaking, I have tube to do it, also regulator mount need making up. All numbers intact correct in my name.
