Pic of Pink Buddy 125: Need mirror suggestion

Hello, I haven't been on here in about a year... Luv luv luv my buddy.

I did get the rear chrome rack, the front chrome rack, dice valve caps, pink buddy case.

I purchased a custom seat cover from Crystal - it has red piping.

I do like the grip lock - at first I removed the black inner part but you could slide it right off - so now I put the black inner rubber part back and it fits snug and secure.

I do NOT like the mirrors, I wish the mirror itself tilted up. I have looked thru posts about different mirrors installed - but noone really states whether they can see better out of them or if it was purely for looks... so I am looking for suggestions.

Try the long stemmed mirrors. Philadelphia Scooters should have some in stock from scooterworks.

Are you in South Philly, and do you park near a sky blue Vespa LX150 with a red seat? If so, HOWDY NEIGHBOR! :D If not, howdy neighbor. :)

Thanks, about the skull flower, by McPherson.

I was at the art Museum area for a long time- just moved to Doylestown..Howdy.

I never thought of a longer mirror stem, I will have to stop in and see what they have, thanks!

Okay so I am an idiot..for the past year I had no idea that my mirrors were adjustable at the top of the stem... I went to 2 stores and then a guy came over and started moving it... I now think my mirrors are just fine :oops:

haha, that sucks. Don't feel too bad though. I had a guy come in yesterday, unloaded his scoot from his truck and told me it had a bad coil. Pushed it into my shop, turned the kill switch to on and sent him home :lol:
