Well, it would appear to have a frame number and has apparently been in use. So saying it is NOS is misleading really. I'd still like to see it before I bought it. ;)

There isnt one on the scoot I'm looking at, but I just
wanted to confirm that all TV200's did not have an
IGM code, as some literature out there seems to suggest
that cross over TV/SX 1965/66 ,had a code. ?
Never seen one myself on all the TV200's I have bought,
owned, sold traded etc other than a ringed one I bought
blind without double checking and scraping the frame etc,
Turned it out it came from a very highly respected dealer
in the UK ...........Hmmmm I was not a happy camper to
discover that, ah well ;) chalk it up to experience....now
I always scrape the frame...Always 8-) G.

Shame there isn't a website where you can name and shame
certain SO called scooter dealers/ restorer's etc.

I saw an sx 200 a few weeks back with the numbers cut out and welded into another frame, worst welding/ grinding ive ever seen, seems to be getting more common, bound to happen with stupid prices on certain models, never saw a tv with an igm .
