Reuniting the collection. Bringing these two home from Philly this month. Elite 150D & 49cc Ruckus. My only GET engine Ruck. Stretched, airbox delete and front disc brakes. Camo box look familiar? Are you in PA? I live in Greensboro, NC now, but I will be in Philly in 3 weeks time. I left alot of stuff when I moved. Will be renting another U-Haul and driving back to Greensboro.

Believe it or not this has already been modded by a top notch customizer. He used a 125cc Yamaha Zuma motor. I think it's for sale for $6000. This one is a Ruck with the Bite plastics and floorboard. Ruck guys don't sleep!

That blue one looks cool. Are the bits an Ruckus very similar then. It looks like it would be.

The Winter & Summer Collection.
Isn't the rear tire mounted backward on the green one?

Isn't the rear tire mounted backward on the green one? Yes. When I got the wheels from MachineMachine, I didn't have tires for them right away. When I got the tires I dropped everything off at a tire fitting shop and told the guy to mount the tires so that the air valve is on the right hand side. And he did. Problem is, the rear wheel had the valve on the left hand side(not sure why). I only noticed it when I finally got around to mounting them. Haven't noticed any problems in the dry, so I will not be changing it until it wears out. I've seen people do this on the front but I'm probably the only fool that's running it on the rear.

I got machined machine wheels as well, valve on left. The valve has to be mounted in the depressed rib/groove (whatever it's called) otherwise it would interfere with tire mounting. At least I'm pretty sure that's the reasoning. When I received the wheels I was like, wtf, but I think that's why.

I think you're right. It confused me too because my 12x8 Douglas wheel has it on the right hand side. In fact, all my wheels had it on the right hand side, even the 12x7 golf cart wheels I used. This wheel was the only odd one out.
