;D Nice paint job, but you can not see the engine once it is installed and i would hate to have to take it apart thanks for the comment before I installed the rear fender(wich is ugly but it dit it job to block the mud) we could see the engine(check pic2) to take my engine apart the paint didn't hurt anything, I ajusted the valve gag 3 weeks ago and its all ok |

Aren't you scare of scratching the paint no, its aldery scratched, if you you look on the right side pic you will see them and my floorboard is cracked on the left side in the front. and for the engine, the paint is very strong. I try to don't scratch my paint too much but when you slip in the mud and you crash it, its sure that its scrached. its made to be driven, not to rest in the garage edit:spell correction |

I wouldn't say the Ruckus loves going offroad... but I would say she isn't afraid to get dirty.

Are you using a cut up shift boot leather on the luggage compartment?

Nice job! Hope it looks as good up close!
I might need to paint my engine since it's got this clay dirt engrained into it that just won't ever come off!

Your Ruck looks really cool! I love the blue and the fleur-de-lysée on the front sides!
I'm glad to see some people from QC visit these forums! *waves from Quebec City*
I wish the Rucksters of the QC province would hold up a meet or something... There was a scooter meet in Quebec city this june but there was nothing but teenagers on their damn BW's, lol ^^;;;

lol everybody with a bws ask me: how fast does it go. I say: 38mp/h. the bws guy: thats crap!
their only interest is speed, a guy at my school had a bws that go at 60mp/h but he think its not enough and now he is going at 68..... its crazy to go at that speed on that little thing. and his engine is alway broking

With the mods my brother made on the Ruck I can manage a steady 41mph in good conditions.... But compared with 2-stroke engine bikes like BWs (and even my boyfriend's Keeway) it's a little slow <<;;;
I ride with it almost 60km a day for work and if I don't want to slow down traffic I gotta push my Ruck to top speed on certain roads. Car drivers are sooo crazy. I'm going at 65km/h on a road with a 50km/h speed limit and I still get passed by cars. DX

Those Zuma's got to go fast, because who wants to look at one of them?! |
