| What is the top speed of the Big Ruckus and is this a worry free, reliable bike that will last me several years.

| I have owned the Br since April '05 and have over 4000 miles on it. It has been totally reliable I fully expect that it will do tens of thousands of worryfree miles.
I weigh in at 220 lbs. and have no trouble maintaining 70 mph on flat roads. It will hold 60 mph without trouble on a significant grade.
IT's been a comfortable ride for trips up to 2.5 hours so far.
Only complaint I have at all is a slight lack of acceleration but it is a 250cc and automatic transmission. Overall it's been a ball to ride.

| At 5'5" and 150 I can maintain 70 mph on the interstate. 65 mph is good enough for 2 lanes and grades just suck. I usually drop 5-10 mph on 8-10% grades.
Yes, I would say this is a worry free, reliable bike. Bought mine in Sept '05 and have 7000 miles. The original belt was replaced by the dealer at 2k (out of spec) but the 2nd one is hanging in there just fine.
Just BE SURE, if you purchase a BR, to have the 600 mile maintenance performed at the dealer.
