Re: (Black on Gold)
I hate these things and the trash that ride them. They sound like a wet fart going down the road with some 17 year old wannabe gangsta on it with his helmet dangling around his neck. I want to kick them over at the light.

Re: (Dittoz7)
I don't have a scooter, I have a motorcycle.
The Ruckus is called a Zoomer over here and doesn't seem to attract the amount of dress up goofballs like the big ones do.

I never liked customized bikes, I saw an episode of some show on speed network about some customized bike gang, it was straight up retarded, but I would never say that to their face cuz, well, they'd eat me

I need to take newer pictures of my Ruckus.
I've started riding it to work, 20 miles each way on normal roads. Lots of fun, and it costs about $7 in gas all week to commute to work, LOL.
Tons of scoots on the road in downtown DC, although many are Chinese crap. I see a few Rucks though, and lots of Vespas, Metropolitans, Vinos, Zumas, and the occasional C3.

Re: (UrMothers_Lov3r)
Well, *technically*, you can get both nitrous and brembo calipers for a Ruckus. Brembo makes a caliper for one of the more common disc conversions.UrMothers_Lov3r wrote:haha that red ruckus up there had nos and brembo stickers. lollucky.i cant even get that on my s14.i can totally imagine somebody havin a scooter over her and stickin them on.damn ricers. lol

Re: (HashiriyaS14)
I have a Zoomer, and I love it.
It's fun riding to work on it. Saves me a ton in money for gas. I just filled the Laurel this past Friday. Half a tank was over $40. Full tank on the Zoomer, less than $6, depending on which station I go to.

Re: (themadscientist)
That thing looks as much like a proper motorcycle as a golf cart looks like a proper car. Maybe a proper motorcycle that ran head-on into a wall several dozen times.themadscientist wrote:want a scooter that looks like a proper motorcycle get a streetmagic
Looks like it could be more comfortable than a ruckus, though. More leg room...
