Chinese Clones of the Honda Ruckus & Big Ruckus

I set up a website at RuckusClone.com in May 2011 and later decided to drop that domain and include this page in the MarushoLilac.com website.



Below are photos of my Leike 150cc Honda Big Ruckus clone along with my genuine Honda Big Ruckus. Following these photos are photos of my Honling 50cc Honda Ruckus clone along with my genuine Honda Ruckus. The last photo shows the relative tire sizes. I'm not going to do a review of the relative merits of these bikes, but I will say that the Hondas are amazing products and the clones are greatly inferior in materials, fit and finish, but they are a great value considering the extremely high prices of the Hondas.

I have sold the Ruckus clone and the Big Ruckus clone is currently FOR SALE here in Arlington, Virginia for $950. I have it listed in the Washington DC ebay Classifieds website. Yes, it is STILL for sale because I will remove this when I find a buyer.

IF YOU HAVE A CHINESE BIG RUCKUS CLONE PLEASE HELP ME: I have been unable to figure out how to change the digital speedo from KM/H to MPH. There will be a secret combination of button pushes and other actions, but even the importer has no idea, and the 'owners manual' does not cover this. Thanks.
