Any ruckus riders in the house?

Next scholastic year will bring lots of changes for me as i will be leaving for college, and more likely than not; leaving my car at home. I have been mulling over the idea of getting a honda ruckus to ride around from day to day. It seems like a feasible means of transportation, and more importantly something to fuss with while my car is at home. What do you think i-club, cool or crazy?

Just ride a bike. Good exercise and good for the environment.

I say do both.

a 5hp 100cc engine is a tiny fraction of a car's pollution

bikes are nice because you can go thru all the red lights. I make it across town faster than in my car! and my bike is single speed

M1 wouldnt be required either way since you cant go on the hwy. But you couldnt ride at night/passenger.

I still ride with my permit, my friends been riding with his permit for 5 years now lol.

I failed my moto permit test the first time and ive been riding dirt since i was 5 go figure

first off, where are you going to school? if you're going to a school with a relatively flat campus, I'd recommend a bike, all the mechanical bits and upkeep are a pain if you don't have the time or space for it, plus bikes are so much easier to store than mopeds, some campuses can be a ***** when it comes to issuing a parking permit. plus you'll have squids who'll try to borrow your moped only to return it all scratched and whatnot. I say the only thing that would make me get a moped over a bike for my few 2 years in college is the frequency of hills in my geographical area.].
