I was at Noho picking up my scooter earlier and guess what they had parked outside.

Coolio! I'd like to ride that around as long as there weren't a lot of hills.

I need to go check that out. Looks like Mike's got his Vegas ride ready!

no way! I've never seen a sidecar on a modern scooter! (that's going to have to be one light weight person in that sidecar though ...lol)

They're still trying to work out the rear support. I hear the ride is "squirrelly". looks pretty cool though. I might need to order an orange one once the 150 kit comes out.

cool pic
i thought some people said the buddy didn't have enough torque for a side car, do you know if anyone has actually ridden in it?

Its been ridden, but the handling wasn't great. They said they were not comfortable selling it as it is now. I wonder if the 08 150s would do better?

Those wanting a side-car, should just get a Stella. I see that this one is bolted in a manner that must make it very hard to handle.
You don't wanna get mixed up with a guy like me. I'm a loner Dottie, a REBEL.

I think, somewhat like Mike's infamous and belated
Mod Buddy , this is kind of a tongue-in-cheek "what the heck, let's see what we can to to a Buddy" kind of project.
