    in Alabama 50cc scooters can ride in bicycle lanes and on streets 35mph and above you can ride on sidewalks

      That's a pretty good deal. In Texas you can get away with not registering it but technically it needs to be registered as s motorcycle and rider needs an M lisence. Lots of ppl get away with just registration🤷‍♂️

    I'm currently riding a Gotrax G5 electric scooter with a 500-watt motor that runs at 20 mph for about 20 miles before it needs to be recharged. It has been very good to me for the past year (October marked 1 year I've been riding it and I have now put more than 3K miles on it). I've discovered the Honda Ruckus a few weeks back and CANNOT WAIT until I can get one of my own for my daily commute to work (located 6 miles away). This will be the PERFECT next scooter for me!! 👏🏼 Thank you for sharing!! 🙏🏼🙌🏼

    That's great info. We had a bunch around here until the groms took over. I love the industrial look of the ruckus. I had no idea there were so many options for upgrades. Little mini motos so fun. Keep the camera on. Make it great!!!

      Honda definitely cannibalized their market when they came out with the Grom. But it seemed to pay off for them big time.

    Even though im team grom, gotta admit it probably wouldnt have been the thing it is now if not for the ruckus crew. In my neck of the woods we have OG groups like ruck republic and riderzblok that started the small bore life, glad they did!

    • @Smallbore2wheels
      @Smallbore2wheels  4 місяці тому

      Yep. Lots of them started with rucks and either traded to groms or kept both. Then the stunt scene helped the grim take off!
      At the end of the day riders will ride whatever is fun 🤙🏼

      What speed are you looking for though? Do you have any experience nodding vehicles? what's your budget to get the speed you want/need?
      There is a lot of factors that go into the answer. Budget and top speed wanted are the most important ones since you can learn how to do the mods yourself by searching for videos on YT.
