Aloha from Hawaii! Yeah Buddy!!

Post by Yeahbuddy! »

Aloha Modernbuddy!

Picked up a 2016 higher mileage 50cc Buddy the other day and felt it was time to hop on the forum! Plans are to see how many miles I can rack up before it dies on me. Hopefully a lot! Gonna mainly do cosmetic mods as she’s a little buss up. But she’s already been derestricted, and has a Yasuni pipe. So far I’ve gotten her to an indicated 47mph.

Had to degrease the engine and underbody, a quick bath, and fill up some gas and 2T oil. 🤙🏽

I bought my Buddy 150 with a Hawaii title and license plate. In Nevada.

15600 when I bought it. She’s definitely not a garage queen!

Long time since I’ve logged on. Ended up selling the Buddy 50. She was fun, and quick for a 50! That Yasuni pipe is no joke!

Well 2 years later, I was missing the little 50 and decided it was time to get another one! Low mileage (newer model, cast wheels) and has the “performance muffler”. But she much slower in comparison to the white beast! Lol.

What are the best upgrades to get some pep? Want to keep the motor stock, but thinking rollers, maybe airbox and jetting? Lmk what you all recommend!
