Thought about getting my M license and buying a Honda Ruckus and using it as a commuter bike. They're super cool little units and are insanely cheap to run.

Thanks, motorcycling has been a passion of mine since childhood.
My father taught me how to fix bicycles & motorcycles, though he didn't teach me how to ride them; I took up that on my own.

I had a Rukus for a few years, used it as a commuter in NYC, got it vandalized in Brooklyn.
I think the rugged look (lack of body plastic) of it make people think it's easy picking for thieves.
These days I have a 2002 Honda Reflex in NYC, underseat compartment that store items, out of sight of thieves.


Since APR 2021, I've been riding ebikes more and more in NYC, no fuel, no parking cost, less maintenance and enough performance to move along with congested city traffic.
