New Buddy 170i Owner and Member
Posted: Mon Jan 12, 2015 10:12 pm
Hello All.
Purchased a new 'scoot Saturday at the local dealer. Traded a Honda Elite 80 that I'd owned since new in 2004. Also own a 2008 Honda Silverwing for long rides.
Just returned the 'scoot to have the rear brake repaired. The drum feels oval. Should get it back late this week.
'Scoot has ~30 miles and I'm following the Buddy break-in suggestions.
Have added the rear rack and windshield from Buddy.
Have had very good fortune with aftermarket spring/dampers and will probably try them on this 'scoot. Also want to add the rear bodywork protection tubing and a front rack. With the addition of a rear basket, the 'scoot should be ready for the "truck" duties I expect my 'scoots to perform.
Love to load up a 'scoot, 2nd-world style and leave the car/pickup at home for much larger loads.'
Open to suggestions that have made the Buddy an even better 'scoot from the membership.
