1. Old style rear chrome rack failed....replaced at no charge with new style.
2. Rear tire valve failed.... roadside assistance and repaired at no charge to me. The nearest dealer did not have the proper valve in stock but sent an employee to get it on his way home. Buddy was ready within 24 hours after being picked up by roadside assistance.
My Buddy runs like a champ, I am totally confident that it will take me anywhere I wish to go without any problems. I do all of my own maintainance at the recomended frequency.

I went to look at buddys yesterday, still gotta choose which one I am gonna get.
But
From what I have been seeing in the forums, it seems that most warranty issues, when they happen, are at the dealer / mechanic level. Even though I have not experienced it first hand, I am impressed by Genuine's initiative in fulfilling their end of the warranty.
Heck It was hard to get Nissan to even look at my $40k car. So take that for what you will.

3+ years no major problems.
Had to replace old style rear rack and battery.
No warranty work and has never left me stranded.

About...hmm...6000 miles ago (?) I had an issue with the scooter acting like it was going into idle at top speed. Never have figured out a good way to explain what it was doing, but anyway: fixed under warranty. Took the mechanic a couple tries to figure out where the issue was, but all under warranty. That was and has been my only issue. My mileage is somewhere in the 9000's right now.
