NEWBIE Buddy Accessories

Post by EAG19 »

I'm living in Miami Beach and I cannot figure out where to order buddy accessories from. The website says they don't sell to customers directly. I was interested in the front wicker basket and maybe the rear rack (although I'm not sure how you keep stuff on it). Also, is the matching back helmet compartment still made? Sorry for all the questions. I'm excited to have somewhere to share info. :D

Try and use the serach function. There are several posts talking about accessories, incluidng the racks, etc. SCOMO and Pride of Cleveland Scooters, I believe, both offer the accessories online, and there are probably others.

Welcome :)

i have some cheap thin nylon string and a pocket knife under my seat, so i can creatively tie down some things. (TY girl scouts) so far i haven't needed it a lot, i've transported a package of litter for my rats and a flower pot of tulips. (on front basket- black wire.)

i have envisioned the time i would need more groceries or something, i plan on getting some one way zip ties and fastening a milk crate to the back, with string over the top probably. then when you're done, just cut the zip ties. i would hesitate to make it a permanent addition however because it's probably deep enough to obscure the tail light, unless you've modified the light somehow. a sturdy file folder of some type might be wide enough to be handy, and shallow enough not to obscure the light.

I carry a mesh backpack which I scrunch together and secure with a bungy cord and store under the seat. It takes up little space and is always there (unless I forget it in the house) if I unexpectedly go to the store. Used it many times last yr.

Thanks for all the help guys. I think I'm going to get that back rack and just have a bungie cord and mesh bag in the seat like someone suggested. :)
