I am running a fully stock ruckus...are there any ruckus parts/services in PHX that you guys recommend? I'm not technician, but if I find a deal online and buy the part...where is a good place to have it installed? Or can I just pay one of you guys to do the job :)

No place in PHX, that I know of, specializes in Ruckus. We can definitely help you out though. Not for money. For good beer.

I'm currently tuning my bike right now, due to aftermarket intake. Once I get that going, we can cruise up to sain's place over in Surprise, about 35miles from where I'm at now in South Scottsdale. I need some time though....

cool Dr.EZP!

I'm a newb, so what do you recommend doing first to my Ruck? From reading throughout TR they mention Variator as the first mod....what you think? Any advice is appreciated..thx!

definitely. If you're looking for top end improvement, the polini variator is great. It helped me out. First make a post in the WTB section here, you might be able to get a used one on the cheap.

If you're looking for better hill climbing and low end action, the KN variator is good for that. Huejass in Seattle swears by the KN, and then he shaves it or something and he also ends up with better top end too. you'll have to look into that though...

I've kept a hardcore chronicle of everything I've done over in the Member's Ride Section. I've always written it as sort of a tutorial. You would learn TONS of shit, just by reading that thread.

If you're not interested in speeding up, then a rear shock is a great way to start. Those pop up all the time in the Used For Sale section here on TR. You can get a decent Daytona for 50 bucks if you're lucky. i scored one. for 35. shipped 8) .

Wheels too. Wheels wheels wheels. The stockers are really squirrely, and thre tread has a lot of rolling resistance. I bought the Mich. Boppers and man I liked them a lot better.

Anyway man, read my thread. You'll learn a shitpotloads.

Im in mesa with a stock ruck. my friend also has a stock one so we can only go 40 :P, but it would be fun to meet up with some more, i know of 3 other scooter riders (by seeing them) one at MCC with a black stock, and 2 guys with white ones riding around university and dobson and the other at brown and greenfield.
