Rider Profile

Best For	Ideal for beginners or anyone wanting a simple, low-stakes machine to learn basic two-wheeled control.
Purpose	Built for short, casual urban and neighborhood errands rather than any kind of serious performance riding.
Rider Fit	Its tiny 88 kg wet weight and low 734 mm seat height make it extremely easy to handle for riders of almost any size or strength.
Character	A quirky, fun, low-powered fun-scooter with fat tires and a laid-back cruiser-like stance that prioritizes charm and simplicity over speed.
Not Ideal For	Not suitable for highway travel, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger any real distance, or anyone needing quick acceleration.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 734mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2006 Honda Ruckus, with a moderate knee angle of around 95 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
