Genuine needs to do this---

Genuine should have mileage patches like the H.O.G. does. The patches could say something like " x,000 Genuine Miles." Mileage wouldn't have to be on just one scooter, as long as the miles are done on a Genuine brand scooter they would count. Dealers could verify the miles ridden and give out the patches.

That would be cool.

I think that's something Phil would have liked.

ModernVespa was doing something like this, left up to the riders to be honest.
I've had too many speed cables out, broken gauge clusters, etc. in various scooters to even keep track of their mileage. (None of these Genuines, BTW!)
How does HOG do it? What's HOG?

Harley Owners Group. I believe that mileage needs to be verified by an H-D dealer or local Chapter of HOG.

The beauty of the Buddy 125 is the millage is analog, and anyone can look at the dash to see it. I like the look on peoples face when they see the Buddy 125 at work and notice the 41.xxx! My SYM has digital so no one knows that I'm trying to catch up at 34,xxx. Wifes Buddy 125 is coming up on 10,000 and people look twice only because it still looks brand new. But this patch and/or pin idea is a great idea, but Im personally to lazy to do either idea. I have a Scoot Tours pin from my Helix days that is my favorite (along with my Battle Star Galatica Viper squad pin) on my riding jacket, and Im always looking for more cool pins. Any takers on making this happen?

With a 10% odo error I don't need to ride near as far as some people do.

The HOG Mileage Program -

The one bad thing is that you have to enroll BEFORE you put the miles on for them to count. If Genuine did something like this it would be nice if they could grandfather in current owners if they bought new or used owners if they show the title/registration with the number of miles on the scooter when purchased.
