My Build Thread

Post by Ruckenstein »

I figured since I got about all my pieces and parts I would start a build thread. I would imagine it's probably the lengthiest build of all time. My first non-stock project and I will update this thread as I make my slow process of bolting it all together. I see all the wicked scoots some of you guys whip up and it's just plain awesome. I really hope mine turns out to be at least half of what you guys do. (But I'm fine if it turns out better) ;)

Wow the 2017 ruckus really looks nice and light as a feather.

Hahaha

What color are you gonna color it? @_@ neon green? Neon yellow? Death red? Vomit orange?

You have to paint your frame some ridiculous color its a honda. :D

I painted my honda 3/4th crayon purple.

I'd have it powder coated, seeings as how you are starting with a raw frame. Might as well start it off strong.

Just gonna pressure wash and then toss some rustoleum black all over. Powdercoat is nice but for my application it does not fall into the category of "necessary".

Powder coat is pretty but not needed on a frame, frames need bed liner and leon colors :rock:
