Anybody else actually read the owner's manual?

These are some of my favorites:

"When the blinker switch is shifted, this indicator will flash and tickling."

"Do not put luggage in the temperature."

"The leakage means the braking system has deadly dangerous problem."

"Don't try to ride, idle or stop on the surface of inflammable."

"... otherwise dangerous situation may occur due to your ignore."

"Please acting the brake for checking."

My favorite is the picture of the dog being run over with the caption 'INCORRECT'
You were Marlon Brando
I was Steve McQueen
You were KY Jelly
I was Vaseline

Yeah, good times... Actually there have already been a couple threads about this, but it's okay, I'm always up for a laugh. About the dog picture, I think it was saying something about not letting children/animals near a hot exhaust pipe. :shock: :x

I think it looks like the Buddy is exacting revenge on a dog that just took a leak on it.

...but too bad there is so little useful info in it! My (recently sold) Honda Elite's manual was nearly an inch thick, written in English, with lots of useful stuff in it. I sort of expected something similar for this buddy and my husband's Kymco.
At least this forum picks up the slack. There's a Kymco group, too, but it's not as good.

Maybe the Genuine guys could re-translate the PGO manuals....

But then it would be in Chicago-speak

"When the blinker switch is shifted, this indicator will flash and tickling."
Push da freekin switch & da freekin light flashes - how else would it work stupid?

"Do not put luggage in the temperature."
Hey... dis is a good place to keep your beef sammich

"The leakage means the braking system has deadly dangerous problem."
If its leaking like a cop's mounted unit, it aint working right

"Don't try to ride, idle or stop on the surface of inflammable."
Dont ride through charcoal while tailgating for da bears... what are yous guys stupid?
