Where do I begin. So I wanted a fatty kit. I was getting desparate. Rucksters just opened and I decided to call him up one day. I was thinking swapping to a gy6 fatty but wasn't ready to go all out, at least I didn't think I was. Ruckster was way cool about it and explained to me all my options. I mean shiet, I was brand new, never been on a meet, didn't know anyone.

So basically, this thing called Super Sunday was coming up and I just dropped my ruckus off at his shop. He said, "You have all the parts, let me put it together for you, clean it up, paint, DONE".

By the time super sunday v1 2009 rolls around, I had one of the newest builds. It turned heads. Lots of pics were taken, and I'm happy my ruckus came out the way i wanted it to. It's never done, but at least most of it was finished by Team Rucksters.

This is what I had done:
Front end setup (brake, triple tree, etc)
Wire clean up
Paint (main frame, rear frame, seat frame)
Big bore install
And just putting everything back together perfectly


Pros:
- Easy to work with
- Lets you know all your options
- Will refer to someone else if he doesn't have the part
- Customer service is excellet
- Constantly upping the game
- No bullshit

Cons:
- Parts have been scarce lately, not his fault really. lots of new people jumping in the game wanting the latest stuff

Yet another picture of my ruckus. Here's how it looked after it left his shop.

Ruckster Rocks!

One of my favorite rucks on TR.

I concur about his services. He caught a plane out to Hawaii with parts for not only me, but for other 808 Ruckus Crew riders. He bought with him some other SGV members to help out with my swap and ride with us. Best service I ever had in my life! Proud to say his a professional and a good friend.

I got my bike in August 09 and I wanted to go faster. I bought some parts that helped but still slow :pissed: I looked around on TR for some one that was close and knew what they were doing. I called Rucksters and talked to Tony I asked him all the newbie questions and he didn't make me fell stupid for some of the questions I asked. So I went up on saturday and bought the GY6 kit :D Because of my hours at work I could not do the install so I called them up and Hi and his buddy came to my house and picked up my bike to do the install at Rucksters. A few days later they call me up and its done :D I go to pick it up and meet a bunch of the guys from the shop Tony,Hi,Donnie,Chi and some others. Got to hang out and check out some of there newest builds and while I was there I bought some more stuff for my Ruck They even stayed late to install my new stuff :banger:
The guys at Rucksters are hands down the best for knowledge, workmanship, craftmanship and there pricers are very good too!! :D

i love the ruckus. it's all about the custom mods and fabrication. open frame concept gives it a unique platform for enthusiasts alike.

So, Im a noob on here & seen a lot of great stuff done on the Rucks, mostly done by the owners themselves, so since I am a noob I didnt was to mess up my new Ruck. Lol . Well, I met Sonny @ the Toys for Tots ride, and I told him I wanted to keep my Ruck stock, he explained a couple of things that I could do that will enhance the performence. I just needed some minor things done, nothing big, so I took what parts I had down to Rucksters.. (As some may know I got caught up in the rain.. Lol..) Well, one call was made and Hai was on his way to pick me up :banger: When I got there, they made me feel like I was right @ home. and even feed me lunch!
The work they did on my Ruck:
Installed Pollini Variator
Posh CDI
Relocated my speedo in the BB
Changed out my handle Bars

PROS: EXCELLANT customer service

CONS: NONE :banger:

Wanna thank the Guys @ Rucksters, Sonny, Chi, Tony & Hai.. You guys RoCk!! :banger:

 Post subject: Seriously serious
PostPosted: Wed Mar 21, 2012 12:35 am 
I have wanted to ride a ruck for a few years but living in seattle i could never reason spending the dough and never being able to ride due to all the rain. i am moving to socal later this year and am seriously considering getting a ruck and using it as my main mode of transport. i want to buy a new ruck and do some minor customizations and rucksters was recommended to me by a friend online. all i really want for starters is to lower the seat, change handlebars, and add front footpegs. how much cash should i expect to spend all together? thanks
