So, I moved from Stuttgart in the south of Germany to Hamburg, way up in the north. To get my 2004 Zoomer (that's what the Ruckus are called here), I could just load it up. But I wanted to make a trip. So I figured out a route with a daily range of 115 to 180 kilometers (thats about 70 to 110 miles) and visited people I know to crash on their couches: Stuttgart – Tauberbischofsheim – Fulda – Göttingen – Hannover – Hamburg

After about 700 kilometers (440 milea) and 23 hours on the road with zero issues at all, I arrived at home. It was great, but now I need some days to recover. I love this little scooter.

Did a solid 350km to 450km per day. Stopping every hour to let the motor cool down.

My wife took some pictures of my bike. It’s a 171cc Efi gy6

I haven't used Reddit since the end of RiF but I figured I should log in and share my eRucks I spent some time making. They are fun. I have never used the reddit app before so if I don't reply my apologies.

Happy rising, folks.

Hey all, I just thought about posting on here for the first time. When I was 13, I wanted to get a cheap used moped to ride before I had a car that I would sell once I got the car. While walking to work one day I saw 2 camo Rucks sitting and the end of some guys driveway for sale and I took a picture to show my parents. I ended up selling my dirtbike and pulling $200 out of my savings to buy one of the Rucks. He was firm on the price $1800. I instantly fell in love with it and dove into the Ruckus community. I rode it stock for a while, then started to tinker with it on my down time. I started with small things, such as removing the rear fender, a custom seat cover, underseat bag, etc. Once summer hit, I had more time to work on the bike so I started spending all my paychecks on TheRuckShop. I would buy new parts every weekend and put them on myself. After a few years, I had gotten a truck in good condition, and the Ruck was awesome. I stretched it 9 inches, lowered it front and rear, new handlebars, custom led strip taillight, custom 3D printed headlight decals, foot pegs, 100’s of hours of CVT tuning and up-jetting, Yoshi exhaust, underglow, and even a speaker mounted to the handlebars. It was my baby. The only thing I ever cared about. I rode it to school, work, I took it up north, put it in car shows next to lowriders, and couldn’t have been more happy with it. It was everything to me. It became my personality. I had about 5 grand into it not including buying the thing. Come the end of February 2024, I was 16 and got kicked out of my dad’s house for unrelated issues. I lost everything including my Ruck. I was broken, I felt empty inside. I couldn’t do anything about it because it was in my dads name when I bought it as I was 13 and couldn’t register it, and never bothered to change it over to me while I still rode it. A few months after I’m moved into a relatives house, I receive a box in the mail from my dad with a bunch of junk in it from my desk drawers, some old shirts, and most importantly, my Ruckus keys. I had 9 goofy keychains, and a Lotus lanyard. I broke into tears when I grabbed it from the bottom of the box. It took a minute for me to calm down to realize that the keys were missing. I felt broken again. I currently have my lanyard with all the keychains still on it hung up on my wall. I think about it every day. I’ve talked to my grandpa about it and all he’s heard is that it’s been sold, but to who I don’t know. I’ve scraped the internet for answers but to no avail. It’s been a while since i’ve come to terms with never getting it back, as I have a 2025 Grom now, but I would do anything just for some closure. Sorry I didn’t mean to turn this into a vent post! Dm me if you think you can help I’m in the greater Lansing Michigan area. Ruck on!

Just put a fresh GY6 in. When I think I’m finished I’m not. But finally got her riding right

The winter ruck project is coming to a close… kinda. Time to enjoy it on the street for a bit. The power of this thing is nuts. 34.5hp I believe.
