Overview
The Honda Scooters RUCKUS is a scooter from 2012, powered by a 49 cm³ liquid-cooled, single-cylinder, four-stroke SOHC engine with two valves. It weighs 88 kg.
At 734 mm, the seat height can make it easier for many riders to put a foot down at a stop, while the 88 kg weight helps with low-speed maneuvering. The front suspension has 1.9 in of travel and the rear has 2.6 in, leaving limited movement to absorb bumps; both wheels use drum brakes.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Automatic transmission
The automatic CVT takes clutch and gear changes out of stop-and-go riding.
Light weight
At 88 kg, the RUCKUS is easier to maneuver at low speeds and when parking.
Things to consider
Drum brakes at both ends
The front and rear drum brakes offer less immediate braking response than disc brakes.
Limited suspension travel
With 1.9 in of front travel and 2.6 in at the rear, the suspension has limited room to absorb larger bumps.
