Whats up dooders, the name's Justin from Altoona, Pa. Have been wanting a Ruck for a long time and finally went and picked up a 2011 on tuesday. 0 miles when I took it off the lot, currently sitting at 200.






First day out and I found my self in two different state game lands riding around. Little bit of mud, a lot of cool views.




Was out on a ride and had to drop a dook, decided to stop by my cabin and shot a few pics while there.





Have had it four days and had to switch a few things up. First thing was the horn was placed inside the battery box. Second I needed a place to store a few tools. Had a pretty cool little ammo box layin around from when I bought my red dot for my AR and figured it fit well. Havn't rode with it on yet to see how bad if any it rattles. Not sure which route I'm going to take on this Ruck, trails and woods will be frequented quite often so nothing too crazy.

Gimmie DAT sandblaster you have in your garage!! NOW! HA!

lol, out of all the randomness of my garage the thing that catches your eye is a sandblaster!

PA RUCKUS W000!
Ive been to Altoona before. Im from Meadville.
Welcome to the Ruck world man!

I have some grenade footpegs for sale, they would match your ammo box!
Pm me if your interested.

Thanks for the welcome! At this time I'm not sure what route I wanna go for pegs just yet but I'll def. let ya know bout those grenade pegs.

Great #

agreed.

edited to add pic.


added some grip tape to the deck and a Bubba Army sticker. looking to get two bigger Bubba Army stickers made for each side of the BB

called off work and did a few more minor things to the Ruck today. First added some pegs, so much better to ride and feels like I have more control than feet on the deck. Also went through and did the first oil change. One thing that has been bothering me is I sit pretty far back on the seat and the metal grab bar was starting to hurt... decided to get some pipe insulation at home depot and zipped it to the grab handle. Doesnt look too bad and feels a little bit better to rest against. Will do until I decide what route I'm going to go with the seat.

Bubba Army - I used to work right next to his studio here in Tampa.

Right-On! Been Bubba Army for quite awhile, no morning is complete without it!

did a few minor things to the ruck today:


dropped the turn signals down



chopped a little off the fender

also have a 12v charger, mirrors, and some vinyl work on their way.

Starting out my top speed would only reach 41mph. Recently installed was a Posh CDI box with that I seen 46 as a top speed. Polini variator I have seen 51mph. So far spent less than $200 on everything so Im happy. Thanks Chris

Also purchased a DROWsports GTN radiator scoop. Love the looks of it. When I ordered it I thought it'd have a more yellowish look to it but its darker than the pics looked online. Not that big of a deal and I really dig the looks of it. I do ride with my feet pretty far back on the pegs and tend to bump it every once in awhile with my heel. Not sure how well it'll handle bumps and I hope that bitch dont break from the occasional boot Might flip it around backwards and see how it looks/fits/functions and see if I dont hit it as much. You can really feel the air being sucked in there if you put your hand by it. Over all very happy with the purchase, fast shipping. Thanks Justin@Drowsprts

The mirrors I bought off ebay. Shipping took forever and I ended up needing adapters, so I ended up mounting on the reflector mounts. Turns out I like the look, for now. Plasti dipped the brake levers and couldnt be happier. My first experience with plastidip a year or so back wasn't too good so going in I was wasnt sure but dipping and removing slow and easy turned out awesome. Be patient and let dry for awhile before you grip em up and you'll be happy you did. Different colors available on their website.

Awaiting the arrival of a set of hand grips (another item that's taking fucking FOREVER) a used seat that I'll be doing some cutting and adding of memory foam or some other option that is a lot for forgiving on the ass. And also another stock floorboard which I plan to chop up and expose the gas tank. Always want to be able to undo it if I am not happy so I figured I buy an extra, price was very cheap along with the seat so I couldnt pass em up.

Been awhile since I've updated with any new pics but here's a few shitty cell phone pics I snapped today.




Added jaggedscar's underseat storage and love it! Big thanks to freshruck420 for selling me his after he couldn't use it. Awesome product, and awesome transaction made this product well worth it. If you're thinking of buying one DO IT!
Also some new hand grips, and went to ACE and got some different bolts for the battery box, gas tank and seat frame. Looks a lot better than the stock bolts/screws.



thanks to RustyCage and his DIY how to. Turned out awesome and cost about $7 for the metal $15 for the pegs.

Loved the outcome of the Plastidip on the brake levers so I decided to Plastidip the gas tank. So far so good!

got a little bored today so I decided to go and get some paint that matched the battery box and painted the head light ring. also removed the wife shelf from the front rack, think it looks a lot better after. also relocated my 12v plug down to the floor from the handlebars. Removed the horn mount and the turn signal indicator mount. indicators tucked in the box for now til I decide what to do with it.
