need some quick help from a nys genuine owner

hi, every"buddy", just registered to the board after lurking around for about a year, I just bought a 2008 buddy 50 from a local guy who does storage auctions so the scoot's coming to me with no keys or title....i'm trying to use the nys dmv website to make sure that there are no liens on the bike that would prevent me from applying for a new title and registering it but the dmv title information site needs the vin (no prob), vehicle year (no prob), and the vehicle make (oops, prob)....I'm hoping I can prevail on one of you nys genuine owners to take a look on your registration and see what the abbreviation for genuine is....to be honest i'm not even sure the search will work for a scooter but I spent the better part of 2 hours on the phone with the nysdmv being told that there was too heavy a volume of calls and to please call back later...and that's after trying multiple numbers multiple times....any help appreciated...thanks, brian

Different state here, but our DMV has "PGO" as the mfr's code...

Different state as well but I have seen:

GENU
PGO
LML (Stella)

On titles from a couple states.

Good luck!
