Getting New Buddy Home

Post by morgantj »

Hello, I am planning on purchasing an orange buddy from a dealership about an hour away from my home. However, I do not yet have a license for driving a scooter/motorcycle. My question is, how am I to get my buddy home after purchasing it?

Ask the dealer if he would deliver it. I was in the same situation and the dealer was more then happy to bring it out to me. Otherwise, ask a buddy that has a pickup truck or trailer.

Good luck!

Hmm, I'll try that, asking the dealership that is. Did they charge you any extra for delivery? hehe, "...ask a buddy" I was thinking "buddy" as in the scooter buddy.

I guess I'll have to ask a "buddy" to take it on a truck to the driving test too for the license. Obviously I'm planning on getting the 125cc. According the posts here, it sounds like the go out the door for around $2700. I'm really looking forward to it.

Unless you have no sales tax and no DMV fees, I doubt it.

HAH! Ask a buddy, I didnt even realize that as i was writing it.

Anyhoo, no the dealer did not charge me extra for the delivery. It was probably all rolled up into the dealer prep cost and such.
