The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

Not my flavor but this thing is pretty interesting


2009 Honda Ruckus converted to 150cc engine.
Tons of custom work performed at DNA Motor Lab including fatty rear tire, 11" engine extension, custom carburetor intake, custom painting, custom shocks, custom oil cooler, GPS, jet kit, power plug, rack, top box, and misc. parts - custom everything. Over $7000 invested in scooter. Came in 1st place in scooter shows.
Does 60mph and rides great on the freeway. Currently registered and plated. Clean title. Purchased new and original owner. Perfect in every way.
Built for business showcase.

The crappy bicycle water bottle cage is weak imo. Looks like crap. After all the good work he did to slap that on there is bush.

The whole thing is an exercise in stupidity.
Lots of money spent to end up with a steaming pile of crap.

Thanks for sharing that.

Looks good from front to saddle, then all that "monster" looking stuff under and to the rear, ruins my visual Gut feeling tells me the bottle holder is used for other items..carry on petrol (not pistol) hmm...or whatever your imagination comes up with

Could have just bought a Burgman 400 with that kind of money. This puts the weird ClubPCX money draining mods to shame.

I agree, I doubt it'll sell too. It's way too much, they're never going to get more than retail for a used scooter -- regardless of mods.

rides great on the freeway

Really? How STUPID would you have to be to try riding a bike that tiny on the freeway. They're half as tall as the PCX, and handle like a bicycle. If you so much as go near a semi, you'll get blown off the road.

I think it was just a conversion and a good bit of backyard engineering and not intended to sell in Honda numbers

Good on the guy for getting it to work. It's pretty bloody difficult
