That's dope, how much would that cost?

--X-- · 07-15-2008, 10:16 AM

I wanna see it bounce with someone on it. Throw dem switches!

I could have it done for cheeeap. Eddie I noticed you on TR the other day in that Monkey thread. I couldn't figure out how to post pics. lol That place seems to be working with some very limited knowledge. (The entire Ruckus scene overall really.) Other than this simple airbag system (which is IN TOKYO) I have not really seen anything very impressive.

If someone wants to strike it rich, design something for the Ruckus/Zoomer. Maybe a BBK as the 60cc version just ain't gonna do it for me. Plus I ain't engineswappin unless it's a Honda. For now I'm all about the oil slick, smoke screen, and flip up license plate.

Great video btw. And I'm loving the avatar!

I know what you mean, maybe it's cause it's the free phpBB. I was trying to post pics too, but there was no option.

I saw some pretty tricked out ones when Sam and I went to their thursday night ride last week. One guy had LED brake lights individually molded into the rear seat frame tube. It was pretty sick looking at night. Many of them had there's lowered and stretched too. I even met Charles from skunk2. He seems to be doing a lot of motors swaps for the group. Looking foward to seeing yours done. What stage is it in now?

Wurms · 07-15-2008, 11:38 AM

Pretty much stock still. I have not done much because I don't want to get lost in another full blown build until I have at least one of my Zs completed.

lol

I think they are goofy but then again I like weird ****.

I plan to slam mine to where it's almost too hard to ride, and I think I already have bars and a few other pieces on the way, that I picked up stateside. The JDM goodies will mostly be coming from MotoshopZ, but I have been fortunate enough to find some stuff in stock at a few of the online shops. Like my bar clamp. These scoots seem to be pretty popular out in California, but imho they tend to rock too much Chinese aftermarket parts.. which I can't stand. (To each his own I guess) Not to mention the chinese engine swaps.

I wanna see a 150 Honda swap!
Edit ~ Nevermind I found a 450R swap on Honda Tech. Baddest ruckus ever. OMG.

EddieNewYork · 07-15-2008, 12:03 PM

Will do, what do they look like?
