I give up!! Called scooterworks today, was told they would call me back with an eta for racks and small windscreen. NO...they did not call me back. This is jut bad.
That being the case, just called Max at scooterwest.com. My Givi saddle bags should be shipping today. Done, finished.
PGO made a great little scooter, too bad Genuine can't get it's act togather. It would have been much less annoying if they didn't publish information on any accessories.
BTW, I have friends that regularly travel to Taiwan. If I get a chance I will see what is really available from PGO. He11, I might just bring some racks in and sell them on ebay.

Its been a slow day at work ( well not really, but I don't feel like doing much )
Anyway, I think I am going to throw a front rack. Does anyone have any idea what size threads on on the front mounting plate ( this is the mounting plate behind the 2 knockouts on the front of the buddy body)
I saw somewhere a site where a guy built a rac out of 1/4" cooper plumbing fittings. Seems pretty easy. If I don't do that, I'll cut up some steel and weld one togather. Seems like the cooper fittigns might be easier though.
I also saw a site where someone built their own wind screen out of polycarbinate or lexan.
As necessity if the mother of invention, when I get home...I'm off to the workshop....
