Honda Ruckus / Scooter Thread
When my fuel pump went bad it was still putting out fuel, however when was on the throttle for a extended period of time the ruckus would bog out and die, then it would start up and idle but the second I touched the throttle it would stall out. If I let it sit and idle for a while it would run fine then repeat the above symptoms.
I borrowed Grant's to test my theory and it turned out to be it, you are more then welcome to borrow mine for a day or two.

The Sachs MadAss 125 is a prime example of form following function, and a true German engineering marvel. With the MadAss you get an exclusive Sachs frame design that is the whole key to why the bike handles so well. The banana swing arm, the rear mono shock, and main frame all run parallel to each other. This allows jolts from the rear wheel to be sent forward into the front suspension, and not up into the rider. Fuel is carried in the frame, and together you get an incredibly light, and nimble machine weighing just 219 lbs.
Other outstanding features on the Sachs MadAss 125 include twin H.I.D. headlights with 55 watts of white light, and dual disc brakes. Aggressive low profile tubeless tires mounted on 16 inch alloy rims, and 43mm front forks round out this impressive performer from Sachs.
The Sachs MadAss 125 is a bike that sets itself, and the rider apart from the crowd. People stop and ask MadAss owners about their bike every time they ride it. This gives the MadAss rider a real pride of ownership, and the satisfaction of knowing that they made the right choice. At 110 mpg, rock solid dependability, and a two year parts and labor warranty, it was an easy choice at that. In short, with todays consumer looking for economical means of transportation, the Sachs MadAss 125 fits the bill perfectly. Lightweight , high milage urban transport redefined !

you know why it looked pretty cool? Because it is.
Bigger than the Kymco people carrier, has a manual box, sounds like a mini Duc, and the build quality is hands over fists better than the ruck. . .not to mention lighter. I was amazed at the machine, even for a biggun like me.

so, who had the lowered chrome seat frame ruckus with no stretch/ other quick glance mods? saw a ruckus today infront of the court house, had mentioned mods, rider looked younger (17-22ish?) had a half face tinted helmet, couldnt tell the rest.
HICK- NICE! lemme cop JT's
edit- jono- but it is 125=need motorcycle license in va, and im sure it is hands over fist more expensive. if your going to spend that kind of money, get a full sized 500cc+ bike IMO
