Need better mirrors

Post by mandyscoots »

Does anyone know where I could get some longer mirrors for my 2007 buddy 125?

I just ordered them from my dealer. But even though I've had them on order for about two months, the dealer told me it's still around 6-8 weeks so they are swapping some off of a 2008 Buddy (all the '08 Buddy's come with longer mirrors now).

Scooterworks might sell them but I don't think I've seen them on their website.

I think scooterworks sells the longer mirrors somewhere under the buddy parts section. Very left of their page, and near the bottom of all the parts

Should say "Buddy, black cat, and other auto parts"

ScooterWorks’ long stemmed Buddy mirrors would be your best and least expensive option. I know that I have seen these listed before but now I can’t find them.

An alternative if you are considering buying a windscreen anyway is to buy the Cuppini Buddy Short windscreen. This windscreen comes with mirror extenders that extend each mirror out about an inch (maybe 1.5 inches). Before installing the Cuppini short windscreen, I always seemed to see more of my shoulders in my mirrors and less of the traffic behind me. Now with the windscreen I am no longer looking at my shoulders in my mirrors. This is more expensive than just buying the mirrors but I got my windscreen before the long stemmed mirrors were available and I was going to by the windscreen anyway.
