- I know I know. What the hell is going on here??!!? Well sometimes you change a bit. Or maybe sometimes life changes you. Whether it's the chicken or the egg I still love riding all my electric vehicles but wanted to mix it up a bit and part of my new commute has an opportunity to ride a new type of vehicle and learn some new skills with a heavier bike. So I went for something a little different.....And so far really digging it!! Slow by all means but truly purrs. Top speed limited but easy going and smooth as butter easy throttle . Loving the white and blue which pops nicely and people really check it out and notice it from the few rides Ive been on already. For you the rider though Its all a very nice chill ride on the 2022 Honda Ruckus for sure.
For my area the only dealer was located pretty far away in Santa Maria CA but they delivered a great ride for me to enjoy. Def can recommend for anyone interested on the Central Coast. Chris the manager was great with the whole sale and Im a happy customer right now.

Thanks for watching and as always hope you enjoyed the ride.

I got a 22 black and grey one about a week ago, it was my first two wheel anything on the road. Had a guy on an enduro give me the “👌🏼” wave today so I’m officially a biker. “Anything that makes you smile when you get on it, that’s what it’s all about”
Ahhh yeah Jason you know it bro jaja!!! Stoked for ya!! Yep your part of the club now for sure.....Fast slow big bike small bike etx all riders with experience usually respect anyone else with enough balls to get on any two wheels and ride. My plans after doing some local 20-40 milers is Id like to try a solo camping trip soon. Bring a can of gas, essential camping items, hit all the backroads, get somewhere cool and camp sounds like a sweet adventure and a totally Ruckus thing to do lol!! Whatever path your riding stay safe out there and enjoy your new ride my man!!~
I'm about to get one, waiting on the paperwork before I pick it up. I've legitimately never driven anything beyond a bicycle. Do you think it's a good first timer scooter? I just want to make sure I don't get it and immediately do something like immediately wipe out hahaha.
@@RoastBeefQueefSniffer I still drive mine and love it, I take it slightly off-road and just fish tail around with my friends on ATVs. Haven’t wiped out yet. Just remember wet ground leafs/pine needles will make you slide and the ruckus is slow so keep that in mind.
@@MrKILLAKA thanks for the response. What do you wear for safety? That's what I'm trying to figure out. I know a helmet jacket and pants you can never go wrong but I don't even know what reliable brands there are. Also I keep reading conflicting things with braking on it. Do you use both handles at the same time. I hear it's focus more on the front and ease into the back. Basically let it slow down and brake gently, don't jam them because that can be bad haha.
@@MrKILLAKA that's what I'm excited for taking it camping and to trails
This is how I felt when I got my Ruckus. I still feel that way even to this day.
Dude, the way you reacted to those other bikers, yeah, that'd be me! 🤣
Awesome, hopefully picking up a 22’ with 700 miles on it second hand this week if all goes to plan 🙏🏽 greatly looking forward to it
I looooveee this video…it’s something about your energy and excitement than I believe I would share with you if I got one for myself 👍🏾
If you were trying to escape and get away unnoticed, the Ruck is the ticket. It is the ultimate survivalist transportation. Slow, quiet and sipping gas !
I’m protesting fascism via not paying insurance anymore, i understand driving is a privilege and not a right, doesn’t mean we can break constitutional laws because of it, because we all have the right to travel on public roads. The bed of Private Business and Government is fascist, dangerous, and unconstitutional, and is prompt for monopolies
Definitely one best ruckus ride along video ive seen
Awesome video dude!!
Ruckus is king of scooters I ride all kind of electric scooters and bikes and I love my Honda ruckus 🤙
You had me cracking up with the motorcycles waving at you. I bought a new PCX a week ago and had a guy on a Harley wave and I waved back. When he got closer and realized I was on a scooter, his wave turned into a wave off of “Oh, never mind”. I laughed as hard as you were!
Going to buy one tomorrow, hopefully!! Been waiting a long time
Awesome Ex Hostage hope you finally got one its a pretty sweet ride!! Been bullet proof for me and a ton of fun every time I'm out on it. Hope you get to hit the road soon!!~
This and a Grom our on my wishlist. Awesome vehicle and that looks fun as hell!
Thats funny you say that Shawn that was the crossroad I reached which one to buy first....The 2 variables of me being taller and a rider that doesn't trust myself with power I went with the Ruckus lol!!! Weird to own electric scooters more powerful than this but totally different ride for sure. A little separate skill set is needed to lean and turn on this thing. And its just cool to have something different....and actually kinda nice to hear a little purr underneath ya as well!! You said it best. Fun as hell is exactly what it is. Either way you go hope you get yours soon and thanks for dropping in!!~
I love the Ruckus but I’m afraid my big booty at 250 lb is too much for 50cc. I’m looking at getting a Yamaha Zuma 125. Thx for the vid. Looked like it was fun.
I’m picking up a ‘24 black ruckus later this month. Got big plans with it later this year.
So did you get your ruckus? And how do you like it?
@@qrptedmacI’m getting mines this weekend. It’s about $5300 CAD, let’s see if it’s worth it😅
@@SWEETVENOM100 Sweet. Congrats and good luck.
I’ve decided to wait till the 24’ Yamaha Zuma’s come out I’m guessing March-April of 24’. It’s getting ready to snow this coming week. Again, good luck with your Ruckus. I really dig that bike.
@@qrptedmacyeah idk why I bought now, it’s about to be rainy and snowy for a while here too😅😅
@@SWEETVENOM100 Well there are dudes that ride the Ruckus yr round. Imean obviously not heavy snow conditions but other than that they’re cruising.
Just grabbed a 2023 in this color. Got the camo under seat bag and camo barrel bag. Guna leave stock and enjoy the view from Florida. Safe travels
How do you like it after owning it thru the summer?
Looks like stupid fun! Love it!
Enjoyed it, going to get Nate Ruckus around resurrection Day when Spring is here.
just picked up a red Ruckus. I love it.
I know this road. This is in Paso Robles, Ca through the wineries. Cute little boring town since everything closes early. Not so much of night life there but other stuff during the day is cool.
One of the best things I ever bought.
Agreed the Ruckus has been so fun and dependable it is also one of the best things Ive ever bought as well.....Great minds think alike jaja!!! Ride on DA!~
@@TheElectricLife picking up a zuma 125 tomorrow morning.
I have the same Ruc yes good gas milage,and Big fun Enjoy.
Do you need a driver license and insurance for drive a ruckus in California? Honestly is first time ever hear about this motorcycle
yeap!
Rene super stoked I could show you the Ruckus!! I was recently like you....After seeing it somewhere I did my homework and was like WHAAA 20 years they've had this thing out for sale lol!!??!! Yes I turns out in California you do need a motorcycle license to drive the Honda Ruckus. At first I was like ahhh this sucks after riding ebikes and PEV's for 4 years bill and fee free but big picture for myself it's a blessing. Now Im enrolled in a motorcycle safety class that passes me automatically and best of all I get to learn real motorcycle skills they've been using for decades. After being on the road as a driver since 16 but not till 40 riding bikes with traffic, I admit I have a lot to learn still. Learning from real riders and real situations just gives you real knowledge and skill that most likely you will need at some time. Insurance is about $20 a month, nothing really. 114 mpg pays for that in days. :)
Having a true blast with this thing and can def recommend so far~
I believe you only need your regular license and do not need a motorcycle license as long as the motorcycle is under 50 CC's most Honda ruckus are under 50cc's so no you do not need a motorcycle license if under 50ccs. Anything above 50 cc then yes you would need a motorcycle license.
Wish they'd make a Honda ruckus 150! < Look Honda
Honda makes an affordable 150 dual sport.
They made a Ruckus 250, I owned one.
Got stung by the motorcycle bug
Wow a bigger scooter is probably much more powerful huh ? It looks fun to ride
Only1 the truly crazy thing is that my VSETT 11+ has gotten up to 45mph with me and gets there quick!! This guys gets to 25ish decently then slowly gets ya to 40 maybe lol!!! What you said 2nd is what it's all about....fun to ride. Good intro to motorcycles is my thought. Resell demand and value is crazy, could sell it used right now and make money on it. That supply thang is real so I thought get it now. Just trying another feather in the hat my friend, you've seen the variety of vehicles I ride I think it makes me a better driver in all situations hopefully. If not it was still all fun : )
@@TheElectricLife Did you learn how to ride your electric unicycle yet ?
@@TheElectricLife Do the Ruckus have solid wheels selections because I don't like air tires.?
Is it faster than your vsett 11+ ???
Funny thing is it is not faster!! Been 45mph on the 11+ and only downhill could the Ruckus do that. But....Ive got some long bumpy country roads to navigate so its nice to have a seat, no real range anxiety, and big one for me the moto quality suspension. This things floats and is fun as hell. Different ride but same kind of fun high for sure.
Is this ruckus stock or has it been modified?
Why can't they sell this color again. Now they got cheap and doing black 😢
This is 100 percent electric? Sorry for my ignorance.
No ignorance all good my friend kinda confusing I have a electric vehicle channel then throw this moped/scooter on here. This is an all gas 49cc Honda Ruckus scooter. While its not electric, it gets about 100 miles a gallon which in itself I think is amazing and a vehicle I wanted to share with my audience. Highly recommended.
0:47 to 0:57 lmfao
That was really rad for me and literally a top 10 moment of 2021 in real time jaja!!! SO funny how riding a different vehicle opens you up to salutations and greetings you would otherwise not be given. Bike culture and its people have always interested me....Pedaled and non pedaled haha!!! As for the Ruckus definitely loving it!!~
At 2:34 everyone's ears were almost literally raped..
But I still liked the video.
Men turn into giggling little girls on an E bike
Not an Ebike
$4000.00 For 35 MPH !
Be careful don't wipe out or seriously injure yourself 🤣😆🤣
Well thats definitely the plan William jaja!!! Definitely taking it slow as I need to learn my new ride with its added weight and different turning radius then Im used to. I'm taking the motorcycle class that helps you pass the test for the CA license and just going to get better as a rider in all respects. Thanks for sending the good vibes and reminder to keep it rubber side down!!
The Ruckus is not a moped. A moped has a motor and pedals.
Thanks Mick your definitely correct!! “Now you know. And knowing is half the battle…” GI Scooooooot beep beep, beeeeep be beeeeepppp!!!!
Looks so much fun!!! And just ride wherever it takes you.🛵💨💨💨
Ricky my man so much fun!! No range anxiety, good intro to motorcycles, and can sell for what I paid for anytime. These have been around 20 years and haven't changed. Imagine if the Mantis was so good it never had to change parts or motor or anything really for 20 years.....Thats what makes this a beast, its style and simplicity. Hope all is awesome my man!!! I heard Steve Rodgers is making a visit to the BAESK8 Halloween Party this Sat.....Look out for that guy lol!!!
@@TheElectricLife Now that would be dope if that was the case for the Mantis lol! I’m doing well. I’ve been blessed 🙏🏻 and got a full-time job offer 3 weeks ago and will be starting tomorrow. With that said I won’t be riding much as I use to anymore lol!!
And while it was fun riding with the group for 1 1/2 years, I will no longer be able to join in on the fun per Sat. Rides 😔
I’m a bit down not to join in fun anymore but I’m still thankful that I met you and the group to get me through this pandemic and keep me away from stress by exploring the beauty of the city!
I hope you're doing well and staying safe out there as well.
Hopefully, I can Join in the fun this upcoming Halloween ride with the group.
Hope you can join in as well.
👊🏻
Did this really have to be a hour long video.
Jaja yes it did have to be 44 mins. I've got to ask you've heard of a mouse and fast forward by simply moving your hand to the right or are Llama hands too big for all that lol?!!? Being real I like my formats Ive established for my channel after a couple years. Preview, beauty shots, and the complete ride. You either get it or you ask did this really have to be a hour long video. I like that.
so slow but damn there nice
What type of license do i need to drive this
KD your going to need a motorcycle license if you live in California while other states have different laws so it just depends where you live. Been worth the effort for me so far as all I had to do was take a 20 question multiple choice test and pass to get a temporary motorcycle license that gives you a year to finally take the official test or just take a safety class that automatically passes you. Pretty easy and actually was headache free from the DMV, I was like "No way" lol!!
You do not need a motorcycle license as long as the Honda ruckus is under 50cc's. If it exceeds the 50cc's then yes you need a motorcycle license. For example there are bikes that are 125 CC's or 150'ccs. At that point you would need a motorcycle license but not if it's under 50cc's
@@jesv4026 No lies detected, i hear alot of people saying you need a license for the ruckus but when i hit up my dealer in New York they told me you dont need license for a 50cc because i was worried about the cops stopping me trying to take my bike or giving me a ticket. i was also informed to stay away from highways because then it sorta becomes a problem operating a 50cc vehicle but what you can do is get it insured it makes the cops smile just a little. lol it seems like alot of people are misinformed about no license to operate a 50cc bike including the cops they dont know the law themselves. .
