Why does my 50cc scooter bogs down at full throttle?
Check the Air Filter: The most common reason why an engine bogs out under acceleration is because the air/fuel mixture is ‘dirty’ or inefficient. Clean the air filter and see if the problem goes away. Check the Carb: If your scooter is new, you might need to adjust the needle on the carburetor slide.
What RPM should a Honda Ruckus idle at?
If you get it dialed it should be within 100 RPM of 2000RPM at idle (more so when your engine is warmed up) and it should be a steady idle because the mix is good so it’s not cutting out or anything. If your idle mix is way off then you might need to crank up the idle screw to add more throttle just to keep in running.

The Ruckus is to Millennial’s (or Gen Y) what the Cushman Eagle was to mine. I am certain that the Ruckus is capable of the high 40 mph range and possibly knocking on the door of 50mph. I bought my 2007 with only 1700 miles on the clock. Signs of long storage, at least one low speed get off and some investigation that I was the third owner.

The Honda Ruckus clutch is a belt variator. Two cone shaped pieces of metal form a belt pulley that changes in size.

Some variators can make a larger diameter and force the belt to ride higher than the stock configuration, resulting in an increase in top speed.
