Cool-Motorcycles reviews Honda Scooter Ruckus 2009

The Ruckus. It’s street smart, Honda style.
You gotta love it. This bare-bones scooter thinks it owns the place. And for good reason: It struts onto the urban scene showing off a thrifty 49cc engine that takes you where you want to go on a sip or two of gas. Zipping around town couldn’t be easier with its V-matic® automatic transmission. Sure, the Ruckus talks big, but it’s earned the right: This little scooter’s built strong and tough—just like every Honda.

INNOVATIONS
The Ruckus. Engineered to ride just about wherever you need to go.
Got a minute? Better check out the Ruckus’ big-bike-inspired dual headlights, oversize tires that grip the road and easy handling that make light of heavy traffic. With its low seat and step-through design, the Ruckus gets along great with riders of any size.

Automatic Transmission
One-speed automatic transmission means no shifting ever—not even into park or neutral. Just turn the key, press the starter button, and go!

Rugged Styling
Nothing looks like a Ruckus—it’s totally unique! Rugged, minimalist, exposed—tube style means less bodywork to scratch or keep clean.

Linked Brakes
Pushing down on the rear brake pedal also applies the front brake automatically. Linking the brakes helps provide smooth, powerful stopping force.
