Ruckus for the Wife! (Maybe?)

So looks like I will be using my old BOK bars for this bike, and yes front and rear disc brakes.

Installed the front brakes and the Trail Tech speed sensor. (used this method for bleeding the brakes)

Also picked up some headlights. (They are the Denali D2 LEDs)

So now to take an old junk battery box and do some fitment testing.

Time to relocate the battery.

I like the placement, time to use the new battery box.

Need to make the lights look more like they belong. Lets see how just extending the natural lines on the battery box look. Made some foam blocks to get a visual of it.


Once I put the lights in with the foam blocks, I didn’t like the look (forgot to take pictures). Here is a picture with some clay slapped on just to see how it could look (might play with this some more later).

With or without the clay the front of the box was looking a little boring so I got a front guard from @Dorby. Might not need to do anything to the lights other than clean up the holes. That is pretty much all I will be doing to the light until I get closer to final paint.

BTW - This is what I had to do to the Ruck to keep myself from working on it while I built the pantry for the wife.


The pantry (still not done):

Next update will be installing the front fender.
