My current vehicles weren't matched to my commute, so I started looking for something that would work - scooter it is! Genuine Buddy 125 by m0t0g0th, on Flickr Genuine Buddy 125 by m0t0g0th, on Flickr
not a bad 'pink'...more fuchsia really,. And I like the flat(ish) black over gaudy chrome.....but where the do people get the matching helmets?

I've already pulled the black Gavi trunk off, going to get the "potent pink" matching one from Soft Italia ($160) before they're no longer made. In the long-run I'm considering a black-out kit to replace all the chrome; it's $140 give or take, so when I have the money and no urgent needs for it.. yeah.
The helmet - just a relentless series of google searches and motorcycle supply online catalog searches. It's not a perfect match but really close, I figure whatever color scoot someone gets there's a complementary (and DOT approved) crash hat out there for them.
And don't forget...getting noticed by cagers IS a major key to being safe...(but who says you can't have fun getting noticed too? )
I want to see the finished product when your done...bet that will be awesome.

My wife would love what you have done with your scoot!
She rides the same Potent Pink, swapped out body panels on her 150, now swapped out again on her 2014 170i... (we got to update pics). Check out the link below...
