Hi group
i just bought a Buddy 125 with 3,500 miles on it. What should I have done- or do myself in the way of servicing? Wish there was a service manual.
(I can change the engine oil, filter and final drive oil myself.)
Glad to join your group. I appreciate all the Buddy info.

There is a service manual, but the service intervals in it aren't quite accurate. PDF here:

Genuine is revamping all their manuals.
Do you know the service record for this scoot? You're supposed to have a big inspection at around 4,000 miles—if you have a dealer nearby you may want to contact hem and see about having this done a bit early.
At the very least, oil and filter changes.
