OK, so I'm a girl...different opinions than the guys, but I really liked the chrome rims. That's just from a girl's point of view though. Other than that...I think that is one hot Ruckus. ;D

Hot hot with the red. I gotta get a better job. I love working my ruck so much. I just can't afford the time or money.

If the guys over at Exile ever built a Ruckus, this would be it. Stunning. My favorite Mitchell chopper looks like the inspiration behind your ruckus...

That is my screen saver. gAME oVER was inspired by this Exile creation and I did my best to imitate my favorite BIKE of all-time. Clean & Simple. You are the first person to notice and probably the only one I have come across that knows Exile Cycles.

Your Ruck looks incredible, and seeing the chopper too, you've pulled off an even better look with your great homage to the chopper. Looks awesome.

You are the first person to notice and probably the only one I have come across that knows Exile Cycles. Your Ruckus is spectacular. I've been a lurker in here for the past few weeks, and your Ruckus is the first one that actually compelled me to post up. (Not taking away from the other peeps' rigs, but yours is the t!ts IMHO.) Great job. And your inspiration couldn't be any better. I'm a huge fan of Russell Mitchell's work. During the chopper craze prevalent in recent years, his works stands out because of its simplicity, elegance, and general badass-ness. No bling, no ridiculous frames/forks, nothing gaudy... but its the simplicity and complete focus on being completely sinister that I love. No BS. I'm one of several people here waiting to get my '09 - hopefully by early August. I wanted the matte gray, but i think I can work with the red one too (which is what i have on hold). I've always been into tuning cars, and bikes, etc... and quite miss doing it. But with the price of gas and a wife (goodbye tuning), I haven't been able to wrench around much in the past couple of years. BUT I think I've found an [affordable] outlet to vent my pent up inner gear-head. Hopefully, I'll be able to come up with something thats worthy of hanging with your gAME oVER. Cheers.

^^ Thanks alot fellas. I too was in the Honda Tuner scene but have always been a two-wheel lover. Rode mostly sports bikes for the last 8 years even though a custom chopper was more my style. Also have a taste for the hotrod / ratrods of the early years but I just couldn't afford any of it. I actually saw the custom build off when Russell built this thing and I was an instant fan. Just my style and taste. I just had to have one but this particular bike costs somewhere in the $40k's if you have them build it or you could do it yourself for just under $30k. Way out of my league. So when I got into the ruckus scene and started looking around for some inspiration for my build...nothing quite struck me as....THAT'S ALL ME!!! So I decided to do something different....something I hadn't seen in the Ruckus scene. Realizing that I could do pretty much anything I wanted, I took my favorite bike and modeled the ruckus after it. When my buddies saw what I was doing...the said gAME oVER!

I hear you. (I was really into tuning VW's & Audi's). TBH, I bought the Ruckus (which Im still waiting for) just as a quick run-about for me to get around the neighborhood for errands and stuff. I just looked on-line to find some type of cargo aftermarket part & stumbled upon this site, and the other tuning stuff. I never really thought about tuning it, but I'm glad to know I can
