HONDA HAS RAISED QUITE THE RUCKUS
It’s often said that the simplest answer is the best one. If that gets your head nodding, then the 2020 Honda Ruckus is the ride for you. At its core is a rock-solid 49cc engine delivering plenty of get-up-and-go. A tough, tubular frame surrounds it, as well as our Honda V-Matic automatic transmission. Just press a button, twist the throttle and start having fun. It’s as simple as that.
-PERFORMANCE FEATURES-
LIQUID-COOLED ENGINE
The Ruckus’ liquid-cooled engine offers exactly what you’d expect from a Honda: power, reliability and great fuel economy.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
One-speed automatic transmission means no shifting ever—not even into park or neutral.

A STYLE ALL ITS OWN
What you see is what you get. With its minimal bodywork and rugged overall style, nothing on two wheels (or four) looks like a Ruckus.

ELECTRIC START
