Default New Ruckus -- un drivable...

So I bought a Ruckus. Impulse purchase. I have 130 miles on it. Why so little? I loved the experience of riding so much that within a week I had a full sized motorcycle in my garage. But I kept the Ruckus. If I drive for more than 4 minutes, it goes into limp mode. Shut it off. Limp mode. Shut it off. Limp mode. Overheat light comes on. Less than impressed. It is going to be be repaired tomorrow. Still under warranty. But gotta pay to have it hauled there (100 bucks). It can be rather scary when you are already going 5-10 mile an hour slower than everybody and then your engine cuts out. So I decided not to try to drive it there. 100 bucks is cheaper than trauma rehab. I must admit, I was expecting a little more from a Honda product. I have owned lots of Honda products in my day (cars, vans). I was thinking of upgrading to a larger Honda Motorcycle. But this gives me seconds thoughts. 130 miles on it. BRAND new! Crazy.
