You've never seen anything quite like the Ruckus — it's a bare-bones knock-around scooter that loves to go just about anywhere you want to take it. The 49 cc four-stroke engine can run for days without needing to visit a gas station. The electric starter, V-Matic automatic transmission and low seat height make it easy to ride on those commutes to school or work. Special deep-tread tires grip hard on city pavement, and they'll bite hard on dirt or gravel roads around your cottage. And because it's a Honda, you know the Ruckus will give you years of enjoyment with a minimum of maintenance.
