My stock 2007 is about to hit 30,000 miles.

Enjoying your vids! I've been thinking of getting one of these for a long time. These looks like simple fun. I've never seen a Ruckus video where the rider wasn't enjoying the ride. Keep it up!

Appreciate it. Hope you see my latest videos where I'm really putting the Ruckus to the test off-roading.

Congrats on reaching 500. I like the little towns and it looked like a fun trip. I would have had to fill up my navi about the same last I checked it was getting about 75 mpg. Thanks for sharing the trip

Thanks for this trip on your Honda Ruckus, Dondular. I just bought myself a Honda Ruckus 2023. After watching your trip video here, I am planning to go on one myself. Keep RUCKUS-ing! - Vulkee

I have a Honda Helix 250.automatic transmission It’s a great bike. There’s a few People around my town have scooters. They’re usually older guys. I’ve had several mopeds when I was younger. Track. Tomas.hobbit. All was fun. I ride my Helix 20 miles to work usually 25-30 miles cruising back home it gets dark so soon so I just ride and enjoy the rest of the evening. I enjoy your videos just subscribed yesterday.

Awesome video thanks for sharing..... ride safe.

Really nice ride. Need to get out on my Ruckus more. Cheers!

Awesome video! I'm up in Waco, and thinking about getting a Ruckus as a partner to my KLR. I could see it being a ton of fun, especially on the gravel I ride.

It's so flat I'm reminded of that boring TX roadtrip movie where one boy asks another, "Have you ever bopped your baloney?"

I hope you ride to another small town & show us around. It's really nice to see the character of these cool Texas towns. We appreciate you !!!

I just a video about a Ruckus that has been driven over 80,000 miles with the same engine and still runs like brand new.

Nice trip! How does the bum feel after sitting for so long? Is the seat comfortable? I'm looking to get a ruckus and I'm really enjoying your videos.

I got it at my local Harley Davidson dealership and their prices usually match what you can find on Amazon.

Subscribing. I was torn in getting a Vino 125 or a Ruckus as I do doordash. I dont think I need the additional 10 mph and insurance/registration payments. Ride on. 👌

Do you not need insurance in your state? In Texas, we have to have insurance and registration on scooters than can go 30+mph or have an engine displacement greater than 49cc.

Wilcer on KZread delivers on a Ruckus. He has great content on setting up a Ruckus for food delivery.

Congrats on 500 and very cool to take the Ruckus on a road trip. Love the sound of that little motor humming away. How fast will it go on those open roads? Be cool to see the speedo in the view.

Nice trip, waiting on my 13 year old to get old enough to get his motorcycle license so we can do this.

I plan to get a scooter or minmoto next year and take up camping here in Quebec. I went through TX in 2000. Seen every state west ot TX. Lived in Mexico for 2.5 yrs. Honestly I didn't like TX, way too humid and people talk way too slow, fortunately you don't. I do love Coahuila, La Altaplanicie, and Mexico City. I also love Arizona, Nevada and CA. That chalk board is right-coffee solves a lot of problems.

How fast does your go max speed on flats?

40 mph

so how fast do those scooters go?? can they reach 45 miles per hour???

@Dondular

Жыл бұрын

They do 40 by design but it’s +- 2 mph from what I’ve heard. Mine would cruise at 42 at one time. Need to do a little maintenance to get it back up there though.

Did you buy your Ruckus brand new?

Yes.

Did you say you put a fuel gauge on your Ruckus?

@Dondular

Жыл бұрын

No. I just keep track of mileage in a notebook and there’s a reserve light that’s stock on the Ruckus. It’s a 5 liter gas tank (1.3 gallons) and the light comes on when there’s about a liter left.

I enjoyed watching this at work , sorry boss man.

My little trips are nothing. You should do a KZread search of “Lost with Mike” or “The Road is Life.” These are a couple of the videos I watched when I was researching the Honda Ruckus. There are a few DoorDashers that probably put more miles a day, everyday, than I do on my “long” trips. Thanks for watching and for your comment.

My friend, I admire your thinking, but do worry about your hands. Ever considered gloves, even fingerless? You'll only know their true value if not wearing a pair the day hand meets road. God forbid :)

Duly noted. I do have fingerless gloves but can’t recall why I didn’t use them then.

Awesome! My only suggestion is a mesh safety vest 🦺 and try to only use ethanol free gas if possible. And use lighter variator weights if you will be in hilly, mountainous areas. I'll be doing this soon on a Honda CT125. CHEERS
