***The Official HONDA RUCKUS Thread***

Meh, Seattle is just as hilly, if not worse. Plan routes accordingly and you should be golden. ( a few mods would help of course)

I wish, Our house is on top of a huge hill. Theres no way I can use it to get to work and school is on top of the hill too. If I live in the urban areas where everything is close I would definately get one but I live in the part of town where you need to get on the freeway to get anywhere. Plus I live in the ghetto I need something fast enough to avoid all the Will pick one up after college and I move somewhere else.

Hey man, I always wanted to get a scooter for the Anna Maria/Longboat Key route to Downtown SRQ. I think scooting around SRQ would have been a lot of fun. I paid $2100 for a modded one with 1k miles on it. Stephen only paid $1800 for a Brand new, completely stock one with only 118 miles on it. So you just have to play it by ear and search around!

I'm looking at one thats got a polini variator and exhaust for $1k but its got 14k miles.

2008. it mustve been a serious daily driver! It looks like fun though. I've read that the 150cc gy6 engine swaps are pretty common and I've got a chinese gokart w/ that engine.

Longboat/Siesta/downtown is exactly what I've got in mind for it.

Well if you're going to swap that's about as cheap as they get

[Erik]

YES, exactly. If you want one, BUY that one. Quickly too, because the '09s don't come in white! :(

[Stephen]

Plus you can sell the 50cc exhaust and variator to get some money back
