Offered by Rockford Scooters of Rockford, Illinois, this bike was made in Japan by Mitsubishi. This one is a model C-76F. It's easy to ride because it has an automatic transmission between its four-stroke (11.7 cu. in.) motor and the chain-drive output.

Slim the UPS Pilot goes for a ride.

Note the handy toolbox at the back. A cushion can be fitted to it for a pillion rider; foot pegs swing out from under the legshields.

On the left side, the chain drive. On the right side, the variable-pitch drive pulleys.

Floormat on the left side. The left handgrip and the lights and horn switches.

Left: The "pigeon" in the horn's chromed cover looks more like an eagle from WWII Germany, but ok.

Center: The dash includes only a keyswitch and the speedometer/odometer.

Right: Note the "Made in Japan" badge with the three diamonds logo so familiar now on Mitsubishi cars.
