So adorable. It's almost enough to make me like the color orange. I just ordered a snow leopard one for mine. I hope it looks as fabulous as yours does.

Looks good! I was trying to decide what seat cover design to get for my orange Bud. I don't know that I want an animal print. I think a pirate print would be fun.
It's Scooter-rific!!!

ooo, pretties! lookin' good, hobbes. :D

i'm still undecided on which red cover i'm going to order from crystal. all i know is, i am most definitely going to order a cover. i really don't like the idea of my blue jeans on a white seat! it'll be stained in a heartbeat. i wish genuine had placed black grips and seat on the pink buddy.

alright, griping aside, here are my two choices:

I love leopard anything, and I have the blue snow leopard seat cover on my Vespa LX that is light blue. That being said, you cannot go wrong with a pirate theme. It will all look good.

Paige-- the orange tiger print seatcover looks great on your Sunset Buddy!

my son has an orange juice color Met with the same pattern cover --looks nice.

Here is a photo of a turquoise leopard seatcover on my Sky Honda Met.

You could go crazy and get a seat cover made of both mixed together. :-)

Or one of each! Deb has the green 'n cream that we bought from Crystal, and the green leopard that we bought from somebody over on Urban Scootin'. Swap 'em out as the mood suits.

Unless you have brand new, unwashed jeans your white seat should be fine. In fact, it doesn't get nearly as dirty as I'd have guessed. That said, swapping out the seat and grips on a Buddy should be relatively cheap and easy. Not as cheap and easy as a seat cover, though.

The pink leopard, without a doubt!

The poor little Met looks cold. Maybe you could get him matching mittens for his grips?

I have a white seat on my black buddy (didn't want to worry about sitting on a hot seat in the summer). Have had no staining problems with wearing jeans or any other material.

smorris, those look SO CLASSY! i love it. i think mixing two prints might look too "busy" for my taste, so perhaps one of each, as the payday strikes. crystal, expect an order in february, woo (for my b-day, double woo)!

After seeing Hobbes' new outfit the other night at the Toy Drive, I've decided "Spike" definitely needs a style upgrade. He's currently exhibiting an Oakland Raiders vibe (thank you Jess for pointing that out! :D ) with the black/silver theme, so this needs to be remedied ASAP.

I'm trying to decide between purple snow leopard, red snow leopard or one of the flame patterns (purple or green). Maybe a different one for every day of the week! We'll see.... :D

See, I was thinking you should go with the jolly roger fabric in order to make the theme more complete. But then, I live in Oakland, while you live in the land of the California Gold Diggers.
