You are the only guy I will watch when working on bikes. Straight to the point, Clear video, Tripod skills, Lighting is always great, I don’t have to rewind it a hundred times and you make it all look simple. 👌🏽 Keep up the great work man! Enjoy the weather there!👍🏽
Mitch, even 6 years later, you're providing such a valuable resource for us. Thank you so much for making this video, I appreciate your efforts and work. Just swapping out the batteries and adding battery tender plugs to all of our scooter Fleet today, and I turned to your videos before I even started the project to make sure I had everything I need and that the process would go as smoothly as you show it. Thanks to you, this was a simple project, and you helped me look so smart! 😂😂
Mitch your video's are the bomb. Thorough, detailed, and super easy to follow. You have saved me a ton of money and headaches in the last 2 years. Much gratitude to you coming from a guy with little mechanical aptitude!
Your graphics during explanations and steady camera work makes you the best source for Ruckus. Oh yeah, and your extensive knowledge, patience and professionalism...
Man, you are just the best. Whenever I need to figure something out, you explain and demonstrate so simply and clearly that even someone as incompetent as myself can do it. I really, really appreciate your videos.
Can't emphasize this enough. For those who don't know why: The positive terminal is hot. Touching the screwdriver shaft (or wrench on some vehicles) to the frame while you are touching the terminal will short the battery to ground, possibly burning/damaging yourself or something else. By removing the ground (negative) wire first, the positive terminal goes dead.
Thanks for all the ruckus lesson's, it's helped me alot. Do you know what that red connector is to the left of the negative battery cable? Can be seen on your video @ 4;23. Thanks
Very good tutorial, I just realized thet good pic quality and pointing is so much better than a speaker. Very good. Pleas do a break handel change and break light push connector cable change.
I have keeway fact evo scooter 50cc every morning o have to kick it to start after i can use start bottom but if i leave it like 2 hours i have to kick it again to start , can u advice me what should i do !

hey I am struggling to get my cover back on, the left side tab keeps popping out of the slot. Found this video and it looks like the same thing happened to you? Left tab is not inserted in the slot when you screw in the cover. Is that correct or am I not seeing it right?
Question.... Will a 100/90/10 tire work for a front and rear tire on a Ruckus? Will it affect it performance? I see an awesome tread I want that is a 3.50/10.
hi this might be a dumb question but i recently had to change my battery and i have a positive and negative cable. i can't figure out where or how to hook up the positive cable. i have a 2017 ruckus.
hi mate do you have any idea why my oil light staying on on my paggio engine vxr 125cc gilera runner I have done oil change and filter change and still on
What battery would you recommend for a Honda ruckus I bought something called a zip battery sealed battery I believe 6 Amp it was for a Honda ruckus the price was right from Amazon well it didn’t really last a whole month and then it went down and it wouldn’t charge back up they did give me my money back however I’m not sure which battery to buy now
yes, Kona. i run 2 ruckus up down and all around, really enjoying your videos! Most excellent and easy to understand, and your such a bro, great work! i hope life is really good for you, aloha!

You are awesome... Son has a new Ruckus and we are learning how to maintain it by watching your excellent videos... thank you !
Thanks for another video! A word of caution though, even though it is in the open, always get in the habit of disconnecting the negative cable first.
Can't emphasize this enough.

Just bought a Diehard Gold Battery for my 07' Ruckus. Hope it works better than the last two Yuasa Batteries I had that crapped out.
Thanks for your input and I look forward to working on this projects again. Thanks.
🤙🏼🤙🏼
i was going to buy a battery but the one recommended by amazon from your link is a different size, is this an upgraded version of the ruckus battery?
Great video.....liked that wasn’t a lot of jibber jabber. I realize he’s deaf, again great video, very helpful.
Very good tutorial, I just realized thet good pic quality and pointing is so much better than a speaker. Very good.
Pleas do a break handel change and break light push connector cable change.

Hi there, is it necessary to reset the ECM everytime after replacing/disconnect a battery?
Hey, don't have to
Thank you very much for this video. Besides telling me exactly what I needed to know, it was exceptionally well made. Keep up the good work :-)
Watching this video helped me find out that my battery terminal was loose and that's why it would randomly turn off 👍🏾
Very clear and helpful video Mitch! Thanks for taking the time to show all of the detail!

Thank you so much, helped me take my battery out and hook it up to the tender for the winter. Super easy to follow.

best instructional video ever.
This was really helpful, thank you!
Glad to hear! 😊🙌🏼
As always very informative. Thank you Mitch.
Best scooter vids by far ‼️
I read a lot of people saying that you need to do a reset once you disconnect the battery, is this true?
For ECU? Yeah probably
@@MitchsScooterStuff thanks
Thanks brother I got to do this soon on my 2017 ruckus I’ve been kick starting in it lately
Great video, thanks Mitchell.

You're welcome Wilson!
Thanks so much for this clear vid
Thanks for posting this. It's nice to see it done before attempting myself. c:
Great job dude.

I assume the push to start won’t work if the battery is dead
Yeah you can use kick start
I'll say one thing anything an I mean anything with the name HONDA is well made...period.
Nah, f*** the Ruckus. Such a pain to work on. The motor is good tho.

Excellent!
Very good video! Thank you!
Thanks Mitch --- From LA.

No one gonna talk about the spider on the bracket when he holds it up? 😳
Awesome thanks
You bet!

Is it just me, or there are a lot of fuses in that scooter?
Norbanvs Headlights, indicators, bulb on the speedometer, rear lights and braking and starter.
