Honda Ruckus

[kirbsys]

So I'm looking into getting a new Honda Ruckus for getting to school and back. I love the fact that it gets amazing gas mileage and that it will be about the price of an old used car. The (possible) problem is that I weigh in at about 240, so I'm not sure if it will run well with all that weight on it. Most reviews say that the Ruckus is awesome, but the one bad review mentioned that going over sped bumps and the like with a passenger over 180 caused the bottom to crunch on the ground. Does anyone know whether or not this is actually a major problem? Also will it be able to get up to good speed with an extra 240 pounds on it?

Thanks in advance!

I would worry. I didn't see many mopeds until I went to University and they are EVERYWHERE. Even the big football player dudes ride them.

Which is funny, but I can't blame them for the mileage and ease of parking.

So...test drive one maybe?
