Need 3rd Party Input!
 
Hi, Im new to the forum and have never owned a Ruckus before,
I am looking at purchasing a Ruckus from someone online and was curious if you could help verify some information and give me your opinion on whether or not it is a good buy. The sellers communication is not the best hense the reason i am looking for 3rd party input.
The listing says it is a 180cc GY6 swap and he is asking $3000
Can anyone give me information on this build, Is it worth $3000? is it 180cc? Does it look like a quality build? Anything I should know before buying?
Thank you for your input!!https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/honda-t...6e5f3aee50.jpg

*(Only way to tell if this is a 180cc is to ride it, should be faster than a 150cc and more torque.)

Depending on the year of the bike and the condition, used stock Rucks go from $1200-$1800 in my area. (may be cheaper in your area)
Factor in the price of the mods, how it rides, and how much YOU like the bike. Overall its a nice looking Ruck.
I would make an offer of $2500 (depending on the year), and haggle the price to maybe $2700 cash. (Because of the non matching wheels, wear and tear, and it looks well used. Only being honest.)
If it ain't a 180cc, $2500 cash. Good luck
