alright everyone i have been working non-stop! and also been having a lot of fun riding the ruckus!
lets just say i got a few new friends (dorby) and left my house 8pm for a ride, head of the coconut grove, chilled there, then headed out the Miami breach and didn't get home till 5am..... lol was i crazy night. but it was really fun... am going to get a few videos up of the ride later when i got some extra time for that.

but on to today i got my tail light tag mount and passwordJDM engine extension on today the ruckus looks way better!
first i got a few things i needed....
Image
Image
started on the engine extension...
Image
Image
Image
Image
old/stock mount

showing the brake light and tag mount

all done outside next to my civic.
the ruckus is as long as my civic is wide lol

going to get some cheap tires for now and saving everything i can to do my gy6 swap. but am not going to do the rim i posted cost way to much for me... am thinking of doing a golf kart rim so i can do the fat rear tire.
going to be calling dorby soon to buy some tires and talk to him about that....

Nice.. Remember you don't always need to spend big bucks. Just use creativity. My foot bars were a bar I purchased at a metal store and the risers are cheap motorcycle risers that i noticed fit great job with the build Don't love getting a new part to put on makes it feel so nice haha.
