Congrats to Mark over at FATLACE for getting his bike featured in the newest issue of Moto Champ.

SF + SGV = the radness…

And make sure to hit up the next HELLAFLUSH event going down this weekend in Nor Cal. I’m sure they will have a few Rucks out at this event…

I guess we did a descent enough job last year that SEMA asked us back to take part in the Ruckus Corral again this year which will be held in the new Powersports and Utility Vehicles section located in the South Hall (upper level). If you’re in Vegas Nov 3-6, and have the proper credentials, please visit our booth #37089.

We chopped up a short 30 sec promo vid to promote the Corral this year:

Many thanks to everyone over at SEMA for the opportunity.

And on a somewhat related note, we’ve been chosen as one of the builders for this years Scion xB Tuner Challenge.

To find out more about the Tuner Challenge please visit this LINK for Scion’s official press release.

We are also documenting the entire build on video and have cut up a short trailer:

More updates soon to come…

a few months back Mark from FATLACE dropped his bike off to us for a complete makeover. this is the outcome with the budget allotted…

here is a short vid we did of the build…

while you were safely tucked in and fast asleep we were off pioneering a movement…

spl thx to jerry of pac rim/gallery fresh for allowing us to borrow his support vehicle.

ever try hauling 10 bikes on an open trailer? yeah, neither have we…

pulling an all-nighter and driving 5 hours makes you see funny things…

setup went smoothly considering we really didn’t have much to setup…

the project bike… a brand spanking new 09.

tear down…

recycling bin…

for all who couldn’t attend we setup a live web broadcast so you stalkers could check in on the action…

spl thx to SEMA for providing us with electrical. we definitely milked it for all it was worth. when the free wifi wasn’t cutting it we were tethering connection from our edge and 3g iphones. peep our our mission control…

even though we were in the truck and suv hall we broke a whole lot of necks… what makes the ruckus so cool is that it speaks to all age groups, sexes and tuners.

spl thx to sekizawa-san of tokyo parts for flying halfway around the globe to assist us in this monumental build.

progression…

after completion SEMA allowed us to take the project bike out so we could fire her up and make sure everything was cool and the gang…

yatta!

within two hours of the show closing we were already packed up, loaded and ready to head the fuck home…
