Going to swap the Ruckus motor out

[dunriteauto]

Going to do the Ruckus motor swap. I bought a yamaha zuma last week and love the bike but its not the ruckus. Been trying to figure out what motor to use and i came up with a 2006 piaggio fly 150. The motor was sitting at a local vespa shop in which it got damaged in shipping and has sat there since. The main damage was to the variator cover. The motor has 0 miles and i got everything to make run.



This is the ruckus im using. 2008 Silver Ruckus with 800 miles.

The ruckus an hour later. On its way to be faster.

As i thought both scooter are about the same size making the motor mounts not to hard to make.

Thats with the factory ruckus rear shock.

There is the zuma i already did the jdm headlight upgrade.


Starting to work out the wiring.

A little bit of time im removing every thing i dont need. ( blinkers, horn, etc.)

Here it what i got rid of. Lol

Here is a pic of my street legal CRF50. 106 cc 5speed motard.

San Francisco street ride.

Where i store when i run out of room.

My other project on top of my tool box 1969 Z50 Honda. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK.

Also going to have for sale in a 800 mile motor complete with harness and cdi so if you want to upgrade your early ruckus here it is. Also have the Daytona clutch spring, Daytona Variator, and a Posh cdi.

Worked on mounts today, started with cardboard to mock up a mount


Bought the metal and started drilling and cutting.



I bolted them together so they would be the same. And out came to portable band saw.



Got them pretty close than used the grinder to even them out.



Fitted to frame and then drilled lower support bolt.



All mounted lets install a motor and flip this piece back over.


On the floor and now is a roller again. Ya boy.





Some front pieces back on. i have to work on a support bracket and get ready to start wiring it.

The handlebar stem is a Thomson mountain bike stem. I made the shim so it would bolt up. Also I am running carbon fiber bars and garmin bike gps for a speedo. q
And thanks Chanito I assume you are the producer of the Ruckus bore kits. Buddy of mine bought the kit and I'm going to install next week for him. Thanks again Joey
