The concept was a utilitarian machine, a cross between the motorcycle and scooter, offering excellent weather protection and comfort for rider and passenger. The beautifully crafted bodywork covered all mechanical parts and protected the rider from the elements while the 14" wheels contributed to the fine handling. Using the same engine as the Sport and Turismo but with modified crankcases to allow mounting on the metal bodyork.
In 1953 the machine was improved aesthetically by fitting instrumentation within the headlight cowl and handling was further enhanced with the adoption of telescopic forks. Or should have been - apparently not a success.
There was also an electric start version. On a 125. In 1953.
