Amy, there are two led pods above the front chrome fender, but under the fender are two 12 inch led strips that wrap around with it, lighting up the wheelamy wrote:How did you get the lighting effect on the front?Tam Tam wrote:as much chrome as i could get!!!

My Scooters
I bought my first scooter in 07 from Scootersmith (727 Yale 77007) in Houston. It started out black and silver… but after a few "learning opportunities" I decided to paint it Satin black and red. I also got the blackjack seat for it. I turned my dead lights into running lights. Afterwards I added a 100w stereo system with an on/off switch. Then I added an alarm system with a 2-way pager. I have changed all my turn signals to red LEDs to match the new paint and seat. I have the black rear rack and cowl protector (minus passenger pegs). I am working on getting undercarriage lights for it now. There's not much more I can think of to do for my scooter… so I went back to Scootersmith for yet another scooter. This time I got my hands on a Buddy 150cc St.Tropez. Wanting this one to look seamless, I installed all the same parts I had on my black and red buddy, only this time with all chrome bars and just a seat Cover instead of a new seat. Also used blue LED turn signals Instead of red like i did on the other scoot. i turned my dead lights back into turn signals. i installed a front fender guard and put headlights on it, which i connected also to my horn so if my lights are off, they light up when I hit my horn...Here are some pics. Any thoughts on what I should do next?

My buddy
Hello all,
I am a newbie here. Just got my scooter 2 weeks ago.
I was a Team Petronas fan when they raced in Superbike... So I bought a foam green buddy and my husband added the race stickers and carbon fiber wrap. Now I have my own Petronas FP1... That only goes 43mph.

New 2014 Brit 'TARDIS'
So the little red 125 with the extras was returned to factory spec and sold and here is the replacement. Added black out kit, Prima pipe and most of the TARDIS vinyl she wanted.
Big thanks to Witch for her inspiration, ideas & help in creating this. Our little girl is so proud to own this!
Tends to get places a lot quicker, I'm just sayin'. Just a teaser picture…
(Still missing a few last details)
