Many regard the SX200 to be the finest scooter Innocenti produced, and possibly regarded as the best scooter ever made. The SX range retained most styling features of the TV 175/200 Series III which preceded it. The bodywork however was more angular and streamlined than that of the preceding LI models. Like the TV Series III, the head set housed a keyed ignition/light switch in the space that the standard LI had a simple kill switch. The SX200 had improved performance and gearing over the previous TV200 models. The SX is the quintessential Lambretta, they are extremely prized by collectors and the SX200 with its own uniquely styled panels and powerful motor is the absolute top of the scooter tree.
Our vendor is a well-known race team owner and self-confessed speed addict. His lifetime work has been developing specialist vehicles and he owned a specialist vehicle design house from 1985 to 2002. The scooter has been tuned in the 1960s style with a standard cylinder that has been professionally polished to stage 4 at the ports. We have included the dyno graphs (on file). The original air box and filter has been retained, as have most of the original parts all over the machine.
On inspection, we noted the following: The original Giuliari seat with its original 'Ox-blood' cover is in exceptional condition, all keys are present, the original tools and tool roll are present, the side panels are original Italian, as are all of the panels and badges that we could see. The general appearance is of an original-looking and well-used, but not perfect-looking machine and we are told this is intentional as the scooter is something of 'a wolf in sheep’s clothing'. The vendor tells us that it is the best scooter to ride in his collection and is used regularly on short runs.
