1960 Scooter
« on: March 02, 2020, 02:27:39 AM »
Who says a 1960 didn't ever exist!!  This was published in the May 1959 issue of Scooter magazine.  Zooming on the upper picture a horizontal cylinder can be seen. Plus the article boasts a swing arm.  The fuel tank has been moved to another location.

I’m not seeing that horizontal cylinder.  That tunnel looks like the one on Jim’s type 60 truck.

Hmm , maybe , with a bit of imagination , I could 'see' a head ?

Considering the height of the swing arm and the possible location of the fuel tank ( probably under the seat ) , along with the location of the kick lever , I can imagine a horizontal cylinder in that tunnel .
It would be nice to have/see a parts 'catalog' of that scooter .
