Apologies if this is a stupid question, but:

The newer Buddy 125's have alloy rims, yes?

Anyone try to retrofit such a set onto an earlier 125cc Buddy?

(I have a running, beater '09 Buddy which I very much enjoy but wondering if such an upgrade would reduce some vibes (as I suspect the OEM wheels are unround) and generally improve the look. If it's a question of transferring some foo and bolting it up, I'm interested.)

Thanks!

I asked my dealer about this earlier this year. Can be done, but they are expensive when purchased a la carte. I was quoted in the neighborhood of $500 each, IIRC.
