Yup! Or custom, but probably an '06.

the black is an 06. I think that is the only year they did that gawd awful silver (don't hate, the first scooter to the family was a black 06), plus the headlight is small

I also think the orange as an 06-hard to tell. It looks sunset, headlight small.

so they are probably not posers borrowing some new scooter

Hey; what’s wrong with the silver – it reflects the heat from the asphalt creating a levitating effect, very similar to magnets of the same pole, thus creating a faster scooter; and as pointed out, smaller headlight, less wind resistance. Sheech – thought everyone knew.
Anyway; cool to have the Buddys’ on the front cover of Scoot!

Yeah, a buddy of mine has a black/silver 07. I kinda dig that color scheme.
