  • Love at first ride.....
    By  (I am an Owner) on May 06, 2010

    This scooter is amazing. This is my second scooter, an upgrade from a SYM Mio 50. I ride it every day and have realized that I preffer this over my Mazda Tribute. When ever I get into the Mazda my body goes on auto pilot and leans with the turns, my mind gets frustrated with the slow start and ...

    I love pulling up to a red light that is packed with cars and scooting between them to front. Some drives don't know that its legal to do and I've had a few people honk in frustration, but when the light goes green I'm always leading the pack. It goes 0-60 in 7 seconds! that's better than alot of cars.

    Features are more than to be exspected. The 12V VPC is perfect for my iphone. It has a dash! Not joking, with a cup holder big enough for the biggest cup at starbucks- my wallet- my phone- VPC- Headphones- and my shades! Thats so convientant. I love the load horn, I have used it on the highway and it works wonders. High and low beams are so cool! Its true that the extra storage thing rattles but its very secure, my wife leads back on it all the time as a back rest when we ride, its bolted on. Very comfortable control when riding on windy days. Its awesome and there is no need for a bulky maxiscooter its more than enough for the highway. I read about a lady that but 20,000 miles on her Italia driving across country, I'm hoping for 20,000 miles too.

  • Great Scooter
    By  (I am an Owner) on Jun 13, 2009

    Purchased it 2 weeks ago - about 190 miles so far. Very stable at under 50 mph, people who want to go faster can do it on the Buddy 150cc, but why? It is for city driving. Been looking at different models prior to this one including the SYM Fiddle II and the Kymco. Don't know why we went for the ...
