Small bikes are fun in the backwoods. Something really organic being pulled along by a tiny engine that bogs a little on uphill grades. Makes the rider a lot more connected to the road rather than a bigger bike with power to blow through anything.
I really like the longer video. Was so entertaining to watch in 4K on the bigger monitor. I have always want to check out that area. So many downed trees. I sometimes think the Forest Service does it on purpose to discourage use of old roads. Imagine camping for a night, then when you're headed back to the truck, a giant tree had just fallen and you can't get out. I guess you could walk. ; )
A bit late to the party...Capitol Forest(near Olympia) is a fun area to run around on the Ruckus. Combine roads and trails for nearly a 100-mile day, plus dispersed camping. I swap between my Honda Ruckus & 1962 model B Tote Gote.
You should try putting some foot pegs on there. Having them on my Ruckus made off road way more comfortable Not to mention being able to stand Great video!
Just put this shock on my 2024 ruckus (same color) this shock is a game changer. Just crank the preload up a bit and don’t forget the spanner wrench. BTW I’m also in the PNW
ruckus and kei truck in the title i never clicked so fast in my life

Thanks DD for another great video. It's like I just went on a 37 minute adventure ride while I am sitting here at work.
Very cool, perfect Ruckus ride, who says it's not adventure bike. Road tripped and camped through there once years ago, cool to see it again
Dang man. Good to see you laughing so much. I understand the work insanity. It’ll wreck you if you aren’t careful.
That's why I am finally working part-time. My health is more important than work. Mostly. I mean, I like money, but I also enjoy being alive.
Small bore gang. Twin cylinder ADV bikes are for the birds.
Nice video… the Forsa shock for Ruckus will stiffen the rear up considerably. It’s a drop-in replacement
Been eye balling that one. Haven't purchased anything yet though
