Vehicle Review: Honda Ruckus

#Honda #Rebel #VehicleReview #Motorcycle #MotorcycleReview

Welcome to another episode of Vehicle reviews! In this episode we are reviewing my 2008 Honda Ruckus. The Ruckus was released in 2002 in the US and is still produced today in the same design with very few changes since launch. It shares may components with the Honda Metropolitan, but in a bolder, more rugged configuration and style.

Maverick, Pepper and I hope you enjoy this video, and we would welcome any suggestions you may have.

The Ruckus, designation NPS50, is a scooter developed by Honda and introduced in Japan and America in late 2002 for the 2003 model year. Internationally, the scooter is marketed as the Zoomer. The Ruckus differs from more traditional scooters with its rugged design, including fatter tires with deeper tread and a skeletal frame lacking an enclosed storage compartment. The NPS50 shares similar motor and drivetrain components with the CHF50.



Honda claims that the Ruckus returns 114 miles per US gallon (2.06 L/100 km; 137 mpg‑imp) in EPA tests.

I purchased this Honda in 2022 from Clinton Honda in Annandale, NJ to compliment Pepper's Honda Metropolitan.
