      For a non running one you can consistently get them here in Texas for about $1200! Atleast here in a college town. Sorry the market is crazy where you're at!

    Hows the seat height? The Ruckus seems really low compared to most scooters.

      It is. It is definitely lower than others, but for me (5'11) it is still comfortable

    Is it too loud for what it is?

    • @octanerestorations
      @octanerestorations  3 місяці тому +2

      I will be honest, with these aftermarket pipes it is pretty loud. But the pipes that come with it stock are actually pretty quiet. They can really make these little guys quiet with only a 49cc engine if that's what you're looking for. This one has a full aftermarket exhaust system that the owner put on to be louder so more people could hear him while driving!
