Picked up new Buddy 170i on Friday!

Post by musiclvr12 »

I just picked up my new 2013 Buddy 170i Pamplona edition on Friday, August 3rd, and I LOVE her! :D I can't remember how long I've wanted one, but now I have my own! :) I tried her out on my neighborhood streets and it's PERFECT! :D I can't wait to get her out on the main streets! :) I have all the gear I need, including a matching helmet. 8) BTW, I tried to post pictures, but it wouldn't work. Sorry. :( I'll see if I can get one to be my profile picture.

Got my 170i Italia about a month ago and and will hit 1000 miles tomorrow. My BMW sits in the garage while the scooter gets ridden all the time!

Congrats!

Did your Pamplona come with the three Pamplona stickers/badges, one front center and one on each side? I ask because my new 2012 Pamplona mysteriously did not have any of them, and it took me a few weeks to notice they were all missing...

Recently I saw a Pamplona 170i identical to mine on the showroom floor and it had them, as did the 170i Italia, so I asked the owners to get them for me...

They said they were going to contact the mfr and get them as a warranty item.

Strange they were missing from mine but I look forward to getting them. I am just curious if anyone else took delivery without the badges/stickers.

Yep, my Pamplona had all 3 badges on it. It's weird that yours was missing them. I'm glad that it got resolved, though. :)

BTW Thanks for all the warm welcomes and congrats everyone!

Hey, Grant H, I think it's cool how you already have 1,000 miles on a scoot that you just got a month ago. That's a lot of riding! I think it's funny how she gets ALL the riding, too! :)

Enjoy!!! Scootin' is the best thing ever, next to mayo and bacon on a ham sandwich!

I just hit 300 miles on my Ox Green 170i. Love it, a bit of a step up from my 06 TnG Low Boy. One of my favorite things is the kinda jet engine sound I get when I coast.
