That's a really fabulous scooter as well. Also kinda looks like a sexy shoe Hopefully the Genuine crusier will be as sexy (in its own way) when it comes out. I think my wifes about ready to kill me every time I bring up wanting a 3rd scooter so I've been mentioning it every once in awhile so I can claim long term planning, but I may still have to part with my Buddy 50 when the cruiser comes out in order to save my marriageSkootz Kabootz wrote:Man that is awesome!

oh man, I dream of sidecar ownership. btw has anyone ever heard of anyone putting a sidecar on a Buddy? I think a blackjack might look kinda sweet with a little sidecar action, although the Buddy may just be too small for it I've told my wife that after we pay off the car I'm seriously considering getting an Ural Gear-Up if I can confirm that it will ride through snow I would really like to get something that feels less carish for winter riding without having to move to southern cali or arizona. I've also thought about one of those can-am spiders but the Ural looks way more awesome and its camo, how can you beat that

yeah, but they also have orange camo, at least the hunters would see you in the woodscharlie55 wrote:Camo really looks great. Considering that cagers can't even see brightly-colored scooters though, it may not be the safest color combo out there.

Yeah, a shop tried to put the Cozy sidecar on the Buddy. They managed to attach it but said it was too unstable to ride... Its in a thread here somewhere from long ago.jasondavis48108 wrote:oh man, I dream of sidecar ownership. btw has anyone ever heard of anyone putting a sidecar on a Buddy?

that doesn't really suprise me. I'm amazed they can put them on stellas and they are seem quite a bit larger than the Buddy as far as wheel base. Still, if they ever figured out a safe way to do it it'd be pretty cool.Kaos wrote:Yeah, a shop tried to put the Cozy sidecar on the Buddy.

Sorry, sidecars hijacked this thread so I started a new thread for that topic. Apologies. Carry on. As you were.

omg that was by far the most awesome thing I've seen in quite some time. I don't think anything has made me so excited about michigan winters since I bought my first set of studded bicycle tiresDooglas wrote:Go to this link and watch "Snow Games"jasondavis48108 wrote:I've told my wife that after we pay off the car I'm seriously considering getting an Ural Gear-Up if I can confirm that it will ride through snow
