Honda Ruckus or Genuine Rough House?

If you had to choose:
Rough House pro's
Simple 2-stroke engine.
Known build quality.
IF wanted easily sped up.
Legal 2 seat/passenger.
Cons
MPG not all that great.
Stinky 2-stroke smell.
A "clone" Minarelli motor.
Not the best service manuals.
Ruckus pro's
Bullet proof liquid cooled motor.
Clean, quiet 4-stroke.
Bright headlights.
Honda quality with detailed service manuals.
Cons
Single rider only.
No gas gauge but killer MPG's.
Only aftermarket rear rack options, but they offer nice large options.

I like the Honda option because I 100% trust the local Honda dealers service department and their only a few miles away. But I like the Rough House option because its a super simple 2-stroke. Anyone wanna chime in and give opinions?

So this is what happened with the above choices, I purchased a 2023 Genuine Buddy 125. Simple and bomb proof.. I've owned 2 Buddy 125s in the past and a 50cc so I know and trust their products. It feels weird going from my 16" wheeled Piaggio Liberty back to a 10" Buddy but I adapted quickly.
