Ibelieve that the Derbi Senda 125 uses the 50 frame.... how much use that nugget may be I dont know.
PRACTICALLY: Derbi 50 is a MOPED.
If you want to modify it to be a 125, and use it legally on the roads, say for such things as taking tests on... then you would need to get the thing re-registered, under new licencing catagory of MOTORCYCLE
So after all the engineering niggles, you have a big paper-work one, which I believe starts with something like a £350 fee to VOSA for Identity & complience inspections..... then the hassles of insuring it as a modded vehicle.
As a poverty measure; its a non-starter really; moped will fetch more money sold on as a moped, and a 125 would be cheaper to buy, than build, and live with.
If 50 is in any kind of road-worthy shape, ought to fetch if not enough to fund a propper 125, at least a fair chunk, even if its only a CG125 or heaven forbid a Chinky CG-Copy! ____________________ My Webby'Tef's-tQ, loads of stuff about my bikes, my Land-Rovers, and the stuff I do with them!

It's really not worth it.
There's no other way of putting it
if you into your supermoto's or motocross / dirt bike style bike's
go for a DT125, their great little bike's and can be highly modified with some mechanical knowledge and money
or RX125 SX125 or something like that
Hope this help's
