God, I love that bike. I've only seen one in person, and my wife got to spend the next half hour wiping drool off my chin. Thanks for the new background.

ETA: If I didn't drive like sixty miles per day on the highway, I'd go for a Ruckus in a heartbeat. Any of the cheap little scooters, in fact.

I think where the Ruckus fails is that it has no luggage options. One of the big draws of a scooter is the luggage carrying capability. Without that, it's just a small, underpowered motorcycle that gets really good gas mileage and doesn't have a clutch.

Too bad, too. It really is a fun little toy.

That does look cool, but it still seems to be lacking in the luggage department, which is one of the big selling points for me.
