Brio 50i or Buddy 50? Help!

Post by Scootergoddess »

I’m in need of a new ride - only want a 50 cc for sure. Brio or Buddy? Anyone ever compare them? Can anyone share their experience please? Thanks so much!

The Buddy 50 has been in the states since 2006. It will do an honest 45 once broken in and deristricted. The Brio looks to be a 2hp Chinese scooter with a genuine badge that boasts a top speed of 30mph. I would take a used Buddy with 2,500 miles over a brand new Brio.
Less chit chat, more riding, Buddy 50, 125, 170i, RH50, Yamaha C3
