My first scooter! Probably not as exciting for you guys.

Post by koda »

Never owned a scooter or motorbike before today. After doing some research I decided that the Buddy was the right one for me. I picked up this 2008 Pamplona 150 for $2,200. The odometer reads 394 miles. I didn't get to play with it as much as I wanted to. I don't even have a helmet yet, and my class required to get an endorsement for my license isn't until Thurs-Sun.

Still, I am stoked!

I know you guys have all seen them a thousand times, nothing special about these pictures. I still had to share. =)

I don't own a Buddy or the Australian PGO equivalent but I never tire of looking at scooters & that is a beautiful looking one indeed. Welcome to this forum, hope you enjoy it here

It glistens very softly in the sunlight... nevermind, it's a sweet looking scoot. You got quite a deal on it with only 384 miles. Welcome to MB!

welcome to MB. I think scooters are like kids, you have to show off photos even though babies look like, well, babies. :lol: You have a very nice looking scooter btw :)

Welcome to Modern Buddy, koda. You now have two of the most interesting things in life: a scooter and a camera. Once you are legal, we here in the Gallery hope that you will join the Hunts and play some Tag. There's nothing quite like the look your SO, parents and/or kids give you when you ask them where you can find a Culture Club album for a Scooter Scavenger Hunt. Good times ahead!

Congrats, and what a beauty! What an exciting time, I was beyond pumped when I bought mine. And what a deal with so few miles for a great price. You'll have a blast, get as much riding in as you can before Winter, so you can learn how it feels, incase you decide to drive over the Winter.
