I woulda thought the RR part would be crossing the line since I have a clone... think I'll do the 50RR, the 49 is common on real Rucks. Besides that I think my motor is a 63cc anyway :lol:

I found a 450 you can ride :lol:

.__.

 

[94RS]

Is that a 450 swapped 80?

Anyway, those rear brackets.... A dremel was a bad choice to use to chop then off/grind them down. :lol:

:drool: I kinda like the more up right position of the normal er6 though.

It's a flat tracker, Just shorter springs.

 

[94RS]

Agreed on the upright seating. Just thought that thing looked cool as shit for a 650r. I was actually browsing the 250s and that popped up.

 

[R13]

I'd actually like to have one just like that, I would just put the oem tail on it because the seats way more comfortable.

Until I get ahold of a grinder, this is where I'm at with the rear tabs

R6 tail test fit. I cleaned up the wires afterward.

13in shock, sits a bit higher do no rubbing, but still pretty low when I'm on it.

f***ing Ruckus riders.... I swear they have a superiority complex or something. I just went for a ride and a GY6 swapped (150) Ruck passes me while I'm waiting to turn. Since we were going nearly the same place, I kept up with him, falling only a bit behind... Bear in mind I'm on a near stock 50 and probably weigh 100lbs more than the other guy :lol:

Anyway, we're both stopped at the same light next to each other, dude looks at my scoot, then turns his head like some stuck up little rich girl. Doesn't even acknowledge my presence the rest of the road until it forked.

Kinda makes me glad I'm not part of that s***. I'd rather be a somewhat friendly rider on a modded clone than an ass on a genuine Ruck... In the end I still spent 1/4 of what he did including the full price of the bike. f*** 'em..

Anyone who spends 4-5k on a scooter probably is a spoiled b**** :mrgreen:

For around 4k your other options would be a supermoto or about an 04-06 cbr600rr :lol:

 

[94RS]

Lol, that's true. People spend retarded amounts on their Rucks. Ex: the R6 tail I bought was $28 on eBay... DROWsports charges like $87 I think for the exact same light because it comes with their mounting bracket. I flattened the remaining two L-brackets I used for the plate mounts and zip tied the wires... $30 total.

Or my favorite... The ones that will spend 1400 on a fatty with matching front wheel. I'd rather buy a set of legit TE37s or something for my Integra.

 

[R13]

I wish I had money like that to throw around...

 

[94RS]

Budget builds ftw lol

I really need to find myself another zuma. Doing 80 by someone on what looks like an electric scooter is amazing, And the wheelies were great.
