I'm looking at a 2007 genuine buddy 125 and it's from another state and need to know if these where carb approved or if its not needed.
Thanks

Your best bet might be to email Genuine Sccoters and ask them. They should be able to tell you. From the website the email is:

The 2007 Buddy 125 was sold in California. If you need confirmation, why not check with CARB or Cal-DMV. They are the ones who have the official list.

Almost all Genuines (Buddy, Blur, Roughhouse, etc.) are CARB approved.

The only Genuines not CARB approved were the Stella 2-strokes. The original ones can now be registered in CA, and any with over 7500 miles can as well.

The first time I've ever heard of motivation to do reverse odometer tampering.

Oh, it's well known in CA. There was a rumor back in the (original) 2T Stella days that there was a used speedometer with vower 7500 miles on it that was getting passed around to people who were registering their scoots.
