The front is kinda banged up.
Does any one know where I can get some new front plastics?

I actually have not ridden it yet. I saw it on CL and had a nerby friend scoop it up for me.

How slow are they stock? It is a 2004 met II I think.

uh oh. the met II's are the "moped" version. restricted from "slow" to "OH MY GOD SO SLOW"

mets have the same engine as the ruckus. different wheels and roller weights and exhaust, but same block and such.

I'm seriously jealous. I had the cash in my pocket, first time i called, no answer and no return call, next time you got it 20 minutes earlier.

You guys have my old Elite E also. Wit the sunoco sticker, send me your address and I'll send you the original bill of sale from Bay Honda, a battered title, and maintenance slips from Bay Honda up till 1999.

By the way, it was $649 new, lolz

The kid who gave it to me beat the aluminum off to try to get money for something, no clue really. It rode fine that way, I just greased the * out of those gears...

different belt lengths and the Ruck has a longer tranny (belt case). Yes, this motor can be removed from the PT. And you can swap in a long ruckus block with fatty.
