Motorcycles are surely practical, but that’s not what they’re all about. Indeed, a lot of us ride motorcycles because they’re just fun. That said, fun means different things for different people. For some, it means hanging out with friends while admiring their motorcycles at a bike night. For others, it means hitting the open road and tackling the twisties. Meanwhile, for some, it’s much crazier than any of that.
Take for example this Honda Ruckus which has been engine-swapped with quite a potent motor. The Ruckus is by no means a fast bike, as it rocks one of the smallest production internal combustion engines from the Japanese manufacturer, a 49.4cc single-cylinder engine. Indeed, it’s about the furthest thing from a Fireblade, which sits on the opposite end of the spectrum dishing out around 180 ponies and displacing 1,000 cubes. That said, the idea of a Fireblade-powered Ruckus doesn’t usually cross the mind of the average motorcycle enthusiast. It does, however, for the folks at YouTube channel Grind Hard Plumbing Co.
