Pop the top case off your Blur and sit it on your buddy, that should give you the visual......

The Coocase Wizard is 38 liters, if that helps. Not sure how that compares to the size of the top case you mentioned. As it is, I had to make a platform to mount it on so it wouldn't stick out so much in the back.

this is my 2009 Buddy 125, named Bianca, wearing a Scootr Logic hard case mounted to a chrome rear rack I obtained from scooterworks...

it cost me @ $75 from the Genuine dealer where I got Bianca, BMA cycles in Bainbridge, PA; it lacks an O-ring seal, but the lip on the lid fits into a groove on the bottom of the case which keeps rain out; I wear XL sized 3/4 helmets w/ faceplates (THH & Fuel brand) and XL sized full faced Zox Thunder helmets and it holds them all

I lived in Carlisle in an apartment building on the corner of A St. & Pitt St. a few years ago...kinda miss it (small town feel, but close to Harrisburg) and kinda don't (neighborhood dynamics were changing for the worse); too far to ride my scoot from Palmyra, but I gotta get over there to see the major expansion to the Army Heritage Museum some weekend...

if you don't know about it...

Meltdown Scooter Rally by Three Mile Island Scooter Club in August:

http://www.tmisc.org/meltdown.htm

the rally caters to riders of mopeds up to the largest maxi-scooters & fun group of people to boot...

club website:

http://www.tmisc.org/

they have weekly gatherings, planned rides, impromptu rides, and participate is parades in Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, New Cumberland, and Camp Hill...the roster is expanding to include Hummelstown this summer
