Fat kid! What is that thing! I think I've seen one or two of those on the road and they always catch my eye.

I can't wait till the "fad" part of the ruckus wears off and I can actually afford to ride one.

In the scooter world, thats silly money for a 49cc machine.
Once the cool, faddy factor wears off and I can get one on CL for $500 in good shape, I'll own one.
I'm on TotalRuckus. You on there too??
I've messed with some CH80's and an SA50 last coupe years. The lil Elite 50 is badass!!!

I haven't logged on in at least a couple months. I was playing the RIDE GAME for quite a while. They're cool on there, and even let me play without owning a Ruck. I usually posted pics on ride game of my Tomos mopeds.
One from the ruckus ride game-

The 50cc two stroke honda's are the real gems of honda scoots. Ripping on one at 60mph is pretty easy to do and SO fun!

Gettin ready to do a 4 petal malossi reed block with a mlm custom 19mm intake and a dellorto phbg... Should be good for 55-60 then. Currently my gps record on this one is 52.
Its loud and fun.
I guess the peg grips are distinctive!

My scooter is a Buddy 125 Seafoam Green from Genuine Scooter Company. Half the price of a Vespa, twice the warranty. I added a windshield and top case and paid about $2,500 in 2010.
Accidentally got it up to 70mph one day.
I don't get the advertised 90 mpg, closer to 70 mpg. Love my scooter!

Yeah pretty cool. I've seen the little diesel mini's on YouTube.

Roxy and I went to Starbucks on two of our Tomos today. Always nice to take a sunday ride on the mopeds!

I hadn't heard of diesel scooters previously.

I was trying to find a diesel dual-sport, for the single fuel source idea.
