Would Lambretta be a line of research?

Certainly, the Li range of scooters introduced from 1958, and all the Lambrettas thereafter, used a one-piece damper with coil-over spring on the rear.  It could be removed easily in a single piece , but I never tried to disassemble one any further than that!
