i sold my drz400sm recently and wanted something to have fun on around town...

so i bought a used honda ruckus.

it's a blast to ride in the city or on trails.. and you dont need a license, registration, inspection, or insurance.

i zip tied my camera to the front of my ruckus the other night.. here are a couple short vids from the ride.

Cool vids, where in Richmond are you?

 

the fan.

those vids were taken on belle isle.

 

I have a few of these for sale at work right now, people seem to love them. I also have a customer that had one for a month and put 1000 miles on it haha

 

You dont need any type of drivers license to ride a ruckus?

 

Those things are fun to wheelie.

 

in va, if it's a vehicle under 50cc, you just have to be 16 to ride it

i have had more fun on this ruckus than i ever imagined

since you dont have any plates or anything, it's easy to get away with stuff that you couldnt ordinarily do on a motorcycle (riding mountain bike trails, riding through parks, etc).

you can pretty much ride this thing anywere except really harsh terrain

 

ah the ruckus, Hummer should have made it.

 

I was checkin out the Ruckus on ebay and came across these... They prolly add a few hp

i want one soooooo bad!!

 

I knew a guy who owned a Big Ruckus, once. We were friends because he had real motorbikes, too. He epoxied a coffee cup holder to the floorboard and wore an open face helmet. It was definitely one of the cooler things I've ever seen.

 

Get a big bore kit and pipe. Then it will be REALLY fun

 

Can it get up to street speeds?

 

I've seen some that had mods go mid 50's.

 

the 06-07s do about 45 out of the box

 

Awesome.

They're so much fun.

 

sweet!
