Ok so since i have a new job and working hard for some extra cash im thinking about investing into a different for of transportation to save even more on gas. and thusly allow me to invest more into my car. I have been looking around and well i am into hondas already and theres a large following of the honda ruckus as well.

So i was thinking of getting one from a dealer putting down a good down payment and paying it off etc...but im not completely sure if itd be wise.....

but i do have to say its a sweet moped especially with a stretched frame lol and the whole NYS under 50cc law means i can drive it without a motorcycle license anything over 50cc you need a license so yea i think itd be better to get something like that instead of a 600cc bike lol i dont really knwo....

And everything aftermarket looks quite simple to bolt on like the password jdm frame extender....and stuff like that....

plus i mean its easier than buying a whole brand new car lol definately easier than that......and cheaper to boot once i get my car done im definately planning on saving up and probaly getting one help boost up my credit score which idk if i even have one since i use cash only lol woohoo for not being in utter debt. but definately i want the dual headlights they make them look awesome i mean for a moped/scooter they make this thing look awesome x10.....

they are expensive. I cant see paying like 10 grand for a moped that does 35 miles an hour. Fuck that :lol:

they are cool man, love the naked frame, but nothing can beat the old c90 cub or 'stepper' as they are known over here, i bought mine for £200, £3 worth of fuel and it will cover 100 miles at 40mph :)

honda big ruckus lmao idk i just dont wanna go thru the hassle of getting a motorcycle licence thats why im going 50cc......

but yea im probaly going to save up money once i get my car close to completion.....but yea i have two ccle shops near me one that deals with everything and another thats honda oriented but deals with other parts.....so i can see what i can get....

And also i may look into older honda moped/scooters lol since i like old styled things lol.....
