Malcolm bought this scooter partly for fun but also to get around the area quickly. It was very economical on petrol and, in the short time that Malcolm had the machine, he had to buy very little petrol. In fact, it was so economical on perol that, when he forgot to switch the petrol on one day, he managed to go well over a mile on what was in the carburettor before the engines stopped.
