    I took out my 2008 Honda Ruckus on the local Quad trails to see how it would do. This route was north-west out of Cocagne, then south through St. Antoine.

    Hi! We each bought a Ruckus last year and it's awesome! We live about 30 min. North from you. :) We go everywhere with it! On and off roads...Nice to see someone else enjoying these machines. Good videos!

      Thanks! I'm fairly new to NB from the west, and it's great to see how much this area has to offer

    Great job on the video's. Tough little bike and rider. The Grom is a go anywhere beast! I was thinking in the past of getting a Grom, but decided instead for the Honda Xr150l. I love my Xr150l. Over 120mpg and will do 80kph all day.

      I've got a TU250X since this, but the Ruckus still has a special place

    Looking at purchasing one of these from Toys 4 Big Boys. Really appreciate this video being so local. Keep doing you man.

      This one is a 2008 and the engine blew on it. Toys got me in contact with someone who had a written-off Ruckus so I could buy it from them, then Toys did a great job swapping everything over.
      I've been very happy with them

    Awesome video. I bought a Ruckus just to do the same type of riding. I been down the mic rabbit hole for a few years . The Rode Wireless mics are good with Gopro as long as you have a media mod and TRS cable but with DJI osmo action line up I found the DJI mic to work best.

      The channel Some Guy Rides uses a media mod, and his audio sounds decent. I like being able to set the GoPro on a tripod and walk a decent way away. Unfortunately, the TRRS lav mic that fit in my phone died a month or so ago.
      I'll have to check out the DJI Mic again. The only thing I hesitate about with a wireless mic is that its another battery to watch, though it looks like its probably the best way
      You've got a great channel!

    You must have chains in that rig. Nice driving maneuvers. I can't pronounce the town you live in.

      The tires are essentially slick, but that just adds to the entertainment

    Greets from Moncton... I have a deposit on a Ruckus which should be in mid/late February... I've got my eyes on Albert county trails (where I grew up) just south of Moncton... Would like to meet up sometime, maybe.

    • @howdidigetthere

      Very possible! I've never been able to ride with someone else. A good friend of mine just got a small moto bike, too
      I've rode some of those trails in Albert County with a mountain bike, but getting to explore them more with a Ruckus was a major part of its appeal

    Can you get studded tires for the bike? Just think of what you could do then

    • @howdidigetthere
      @howdidigetthere  6 місяців тому

      There seems to be some debate in the forums about whether it's worthwhile to use sheetmetal screws. I've got a set of worn out tires that I may one day out some screws through
