I agree Lisa. Pretty sure it's all the rage in Japan.Must be spreading to the states. There is a small article in this month's cycle world about custom ruckuses.

At last year's Moto GP in Indy last year there was a whole platoon of these Honda Ruckus. They all came in a pack to the downtown motorcycle get together on Friday night. I went and took a look. Some were pretty neat. I kind of like the stock Honda Ruckus for the utility of it. There must have been 50 of them.

As already stated; I think this one is pretty ugly. But what if it had a two stroke engine . . . . ? :lol:

Honda made a 250 Ruckus but they are in high demand and hard to find.I kind of like them too,just not this one. A gang of them would be cool though.

I worked for a Honda dealer when those came out, there are fun to ride and interesting. The passenger seat fold up into a backrest for the rider, it was really comfortable.

My son had a Ruckus 50, we also had a few Metropolitans, down to 2 of those now.

I know that we get about a thousand smiles per gallon. When the kids were younger, we would ride all over town, it was a real good time.

They have cute little pistons
