I purchased a 2023 Honda Ruckus today, garage kept and only 150 mile on it. I have been planning on buying one for a few months now and was shocked to see it pop up locally on cycle trader last night.
I barely snagged it in time, an older couple tried to buy it a few minutes after i did. I plan to use it to save maintenance costs on my car. I am excited to see where this goes! Anyone else here with a Ruck?
Very cool! That said, having started with motorbikes and then ebikes, I’d say they both certainly save on automobile maintenance but they have their own costs. Mostly up-front expenses like safety gear and training – which I cannot stress enough for street riding motorbikes – but then like any hobby, it climbs from there.
It might start with small aesthetic mods, and before you know it, you’ve got a lift, four different sets of tires, and are only using the car as a convenient place to store your three riding jackets for different occasions.
Two-wheels is a great journey!
My father inlaw is very experienced riding, he even rebuilds harleys. I am learning how to ride from him and have already purchased most safety gear. I can see this becoming a big hobby, i’m having a blast :)
