i do have a question... is it worth doing a GY6 swap? every now and then i'll come across a cheap non-running ruckus, and i feel like i'd rather pick up one of those and just swap it. i've priced it out, so i know i don't want to spend ~1800 on a nice, running ruckus only to tear the shit apart. but i have a feeling i will want a lot more power from the scooter, just cause i've ridden dirt bikes all my life and i find myself always wanting more. i.e. after owning a 2-stroke 250 for over a year, i'm itching to upgrade to a 450.

i realize its just a scooter, i guess i'm just trying to figure out if its worth it in the long run.
