Trading my Buddy 125

Post by rkcoker »

I have to say this has been a great site for info, news and bs'ing.

No. You can't stay. (Says the guy riding a motorcycle.) :lol:
They won't kick you out. Eric just gives me grief occasionally for riding a 900cc cruiser. (Okay, it's more for when I realized I was happier with my scooter, but it's still all in good fun.)

Lostmycage might tease you a little, but only because he rides an MP3-500. :wink:

You HAVE to tell us how the MP3 rides. :)

Several of our locals have mp3's and they like em. there's even a subsection on MV for it.

Maybe when you realize they're BOTH awesome you'll go back and get another one :).

Sweet! I didn't know there was a fellow sh150i rider on here. I love my sh150 although as I've said before, the Buddy is more fun to ride.

I think there are quite a few of us that post both here and on Modern Vespa in the MP3 forum, as we have both a Buddy and an MP3. :D

You're going to miss the Buddy. :P

The MP3 forum on MV is like its own little subculture.

I don't think my very Not Safe For Work MP3 patch ever got produced. (SERIOUSLY, IT'S EMBARRASSINGLY OBSCENE.) It didn't win the contest, but there was talk of a limited edition coming out. I posted it as a joke, but some people liked it.

+1

You might be looking to have a second scooter soon. :wink:

MP3s are definitely fun to ride, but so are Buddys...I really do enjoy my MP3, but Buddys are darn hard to beat!

Buuuuut, this forum was founded by the guy who runs ModernVespa, and all the original moderators (me included) came from ModernVespa and and I think all of us owned or had owned Vespas at the time. So, yeah, we're okay with the Vespas. :)
