Hello everyone. I am a new scooter rider located in Joliet, IL. I bought a 2022 Genuine Roughhouse and enjoy it so far. i got two whole days out of it before getting a tire puncture that couldn't be safely repaired. Finding that specific tire was tough but I did and am waiting on delivery. Worst Wait Ever!
My girl got a Genuine Buddy 50 of the same year. Any hints or tips as far as where to get accessories from? Id like to get her the windshield and top case. Thanks everyone.

Welcome to the forum. That really is bad timing, just after getting your scooters. There are a few people on here with Genuine scooters. So hopefully someone can help. If Genuine make an accessory rear rack. You should be able to pretty much mount any top box you want.

Welcome!
Scooterworks, that Zino mentioned, seems to be the goto for Genuine stuff.
Genuine's site lists the tires on the Roughhouse as 120/70-12 and 130/70-12. Those are the most common 12" tires sizes for scooters. If you have troubles in the future, you don't really have to match brands front and rear if you can find something with a similar style. You could even replace both with more street oriented tires. The dual sports look kinda cool, but they won't handle as well on road. Street tires won't work as well if you do ride on surfaces other than asphalt/concrete.

If you do your tires yourself leave the new ones in the afternoon sun for a couple hours so they get warm and are more forgiving to put on.
And make sure you have some cold beer waiting for you when you are done .
