Hard-core looking scooter

Hey guys, I wanted my bike back even more after seeing this check on a red one of these in on the way to work.

Kinda like a street fighter scooter. Looks like it could do a little offroad with those tires as well.

I think those are called Ruckus in North America ... I see them around every now and again downtown ...

Edit:

Honda used to have the "Big Ruckus" at 250cc, but dropped that in Canada after a couple years. TNG (Twist'n'Go) opened up in Canada recently and has a 150cc Ruckus style scooter. Be warned: ultimately TNG sells chinese scooters and the quality can range from okay to the horror, the horror.

The answer comes in several parts:
FIRST you try to do it, but fall on your *** and ruin your bike.
SECOND you try to do it, but fall on your *** and ruin your bike.
THIRD you try to do it, but fall on your *** and ruin your bike.
FOURTH you try to do it, but fall on your *** and ruin your bike.

Eventually you decide to keep on trying, and maybe you learn to do it nineteen times out of twenty without falling, or you decide to enjoy your ride without risking loss of control, and keep your wheels on the ground.

Wheelstands belong at an exhibition, not in public where innocent people can be injured. Either become a pro, or else let the pros do the stunts.

End of sermon.

I can do that on my sis' bw50, it's easy to get it up, but much harder to keep up than on a bike. I don't suggest you do it though, or if you do it, make sure you do it in a closed course*see this is my disclaimer*

where he's sitting, and where his feet are is probably not the way he rides normally
