Every buy new plastic body parts?

Post by rickko »

Are the plastic body parts for the Buddy very expensive?

How much for the part the front standard turn signals (non-DOT) are mounted? It is one piece that goes around to both sides of the bike. I put a unsightly gouge in mine accidentally.

Did your dealer have them in stock or are they on backorder like the Buddy's are?

If you've bought any plastic body part maybe you could list it here with approx date of purchase and its price so current and future Buddy owners will can look here to get an idea of what they'll cost before going to the dealership.

play around with the search function, there's a list up there somewhere with the pricing for all the panels. Should be in the tech library.
Looking for ppl to ride with in LA.

I bought one of these last year. It wasn't more than $50. Be advised that replacement for that piece requires removing a number of other parts including the front wheel, IIRC.

plastic parts cost

If you factor in the inflation on your dollar while you await the backordered part it's VERY expensive.
