Let me start with, hi everybody.
Ive been gone for a few years now.
All my bikes got sold off one by one as I focused more on other areas of my life, but I never lost the bug for scooters.
Well im back in it and I've got a little more money to throw at it this time!
I just got a buddy with a blown motor off a guy in my city for 600. I only paid that much for it as the body is in mint condition and happens to have what i think is a sweet mint color paint job. Ive got a Stage 6 streetrace 70cc bbk, a Yasuni R 07 pipe, Malossi dellorto 21mm carb, Malossi multivar, Trailtech vapor, Stage 6 fuel gauge, and all the fixens to do the best looking naked bar set up ive ever done before! Ill upload pics of all of this being built up. Glad to be back gang!

Welcome back.
That does look in good condition. And with a bit of fettling, should be better than new.

With a street race it will be a wheelie machine. 😁

If possible, can you measure the stud spacing for the bore and post it for reference?

That is a snazzy looking ride! Color is very cool as well. I'm not usually a mint green fan, but it really shows off the lines. Sounds like it's gonna be an awesome machine.

Sounds like it's gonna be an awesome machine. a company in Waikiki is renting the Buddy 50 and the RoughHouse. they also sell them. i've been looking at those for a couple years now. Genuine is a Chicago based company, but the scoots are manufactured in Taiwan. that same rental company used to rent/sell SYM dd50's. made in Taiwan as well, good stuff. |

Im definitely not a mint green man myself, but I do like this bike in this color. Especially with the modifications I will be doing. |
