Honda Ruckus 50cc scooter is
"Come on, Honda, are you
kidding ... an MSRP of over
$ 2k for it? ". My personal
thought is, "Alright, Honda,
you have tried (sorta), now I can
do better myself ".
My main love this
scooters are underpowered
OEM engine, a low back
shock suspension, the sacrifice of
storage for aesthetics, and
bad drum braking system.
Although not badly needed
in these areas, it certainly
room for much needed
improvement.
Live from the showroom,
it will reach a top speed of
around 35 mph in about
12.5 seconds on the flat
straight lines ... a little faster
for riders of about 150 pounds lighter
or less, than out at about
40 mph and slower for large
Riders £ 200 +, perhaps
low as 30 mph.
On moderate ribs
speed may reach the
20 mph is lower. My disclaimer ...
These speeds are about
typical of all 50cc scooters
with original parts. 50cc
scooters are not
manufactured for the speed
demons. They are built to be
effective, efficient
commuter vehicles.
The rear Ruckus 2010
shock suspension simply does not
muscle. Average adult
Men will flow quite the shock
deep just sitting on the unit,
all the greater for the riders,
or riders with added
weight.
Rough roads cause
increased loss of handling
(Higher than high speed), as
weak shock can bounce
about the rider and scooter
dangerously. Above all, you
feel the road through the seat
suspension of the factory, and
long rides on rough roads will be
cause fatigue and soreness.
The storage space simply is
no no on the 2010
Ruckus 50cc. No
storage compartment is
on factory-made scooter,
if there is a minimum
locking bolt to the helmet.
This leaves the Ruckus, and
rider at a disadvantage, where
practical use is concerned.
This also hampers the jumper
store with the basic tools
the scooter itself, which is a
risky business while away from
home.

necessary for the rider
constantly evaluate the stop
distances (and on the defensive
the conduct of operations), where
stop-and-go traffic is a reality.
This can make the 2010
Ruckus dangerous to speed along
through the busy streets where
obstacles (and pedestrians)
can appear suddenly in the
path of travel.
Last, there is no fuel gauge in the
area of the plant, no
succeed or the windshield to reduce
wind resistance or earthquake, a
not-so-ergonomic range

solid tire traction when the lack
turns at moderate speed
and while in the wet or debris
dotted the roads.
Now that was a tough
introduction to the review
2010 Honda Ruckus 50cc
scooter. Alas, here the radius
hope that is within what I
really do like this
scooter.
The engine is one of the best
50cc built in the industry. This is
strong enough and should last
years when well maintained.
Only use premium gas and
top-grade oil and fluids
this scooter.
It will survive countless other
motor scooter is on less
expensive Chinese and Italian-
made scooters. In addition,
it is quite easy to maintain,
upgrade and replace parts on the
The Ruckus 2010. Even novice
mechanics can do important
work on this scooter. Coins
and service manual is
readily available, unlike many
other manufacturers.
The chassis, too, is solid.
Factory wheels are plentiful and
resilient, sustainable headquarters
and UV resistant plant
headlights are bright and
project well, battery and
plugs are durable and long
durable, hand throttle is fluid
and reactive, self-ignition

Best of all, it's a street-legal
vehicles requiring only a class-
C driver's license, and no
motorcycle license (in most
USA), to operate. He realizes
about 100 miles per gallon with
a tank of 1.3 gallons of fuel, about
130 miles per fill.
In addition to auto insurance
is relatively inexpensive
scooters.
More important for me
anyway, is the ability to
"Tune" the 2010 Honda Ruckus
with after-market updates,
ranging from cosmetics
improvements to the engine
improvements, in which a
gain speed of nearly 50 mph
can be achieved. With a little
hundred dollars of parts and kits
can be installed to improve
overall performance and
functionality.
Two of the least expensive and
easier to do, I feel as
The most important ...
replacing the lower rear shock
and adding storage under the seat.
I consider it essential to
operation of the Ruckus 50cc
safe and effective enough
for routine use.
Other worthwhile projects
may include the replacement of
Drum brakes with disc brake
system, replacing the tire factory
with street tires quality

gain speed, a new framebrace

Instead of the step, a new
carburetor performance if
desired, a fuel gauge add-on.
The availability of
performance parts for the
Honda Ruckus is wide and
easily accessible from many
sellers, which makes this
one of the most scooters
popular and easily
upgradable on scooters
market.
To sum it all, the plant
release of the 2010 Honda
50 Ruckus scooter
little sluggish, and,

minimalist scooter. However,
some basic inexpensive

performance.
With more investment,
Ruckus can be (and often)
the scooter of choice for
"Tuner" scooters, offering a
variety of improvements

Wheeler in a jewel right way
that should last many years.
