Ordered an ignition switch w key, and an airbox last night. Anybody have any oem ruckus wheels? Or any other stock ruckus parts? I may make this a met-ruck, or ruck-tro, or whatever you call it.

If you plan on swapping in a ruckus stem, I have ruckus shocks, axle, rim and brand new 90/90-10 tire I’m looking to sell.

Looks like I may have found a front wheel. Just need a matching rear.
I might end up painting this thing myself to save some money.

Also 'bout to lower this thing. Tomorrow morning probably haha. I've kinda had a bad day, and lowering stuff usually helps.

Thanks Brent. Already lowered the rear, just cut the spring off an kept the bump stop  I think I'm gonna get some modified stock front shocks off a guy on eBay for like $110. Also thinking about making the red panels green. Or maybe white. Also thinking about doing naked bars. Which size bike stem works on these bikes? I've seen guys use what looks like mountain bike or bmx stems. |

Nice GET! And yes, Happypancakes is one of the few people I’d take advice from on a GET motor.
2006 is when they changed some stuff, but not drastically. Upped the rev limit and fixed the breather issue.
A Polini Ruckus variator kit is the first place to start. Airbox delete and rejetting as well. But once you start down that path, you’ll be doing the exhaust really quickly (cheap and loud fix is a Briggs mower muffler).
Almost zero Chinese/GY6 stuff fits, unfortunately.

I've seen guys use what looks like mountain bike or bmx stems. Naked bars need an adapter because the front plastics ride so high. Zen Kustom and MNNTBX both make one that allow you to use Ruckus bar clamps or BMX. BMX stems still need the shim. I think it’s 1 1/8” to 1”. And there’s a way to mod the stock front end to lower it, but that How To was on the old TR site. |

 Maybe these Those are sweet! I remember Happypancakes having some fitment issues with Japanese plastics, but I don’t remember if it was everything, or just certain pieces. |
