riggs and Stratton Flyer

A New Sensation! The Briggs & Stratton Flyer ("The Red Bug") is a highly popular adaptation of the Motor Wheel to a smart two-passenger

hide.

It would be hard to conceive of a more practical and satisfactory "Roadster" for the young folks, since it combines the simplicity of the bicycle with the delights of the motor car. However, red-blooded youngsters are not alone responsible for its great popularity, for pleasure seeking grown-ups have found this "sporty" form of transportation both delightful and practical, where the services of the higK powered motor car was unobtainable or prohibited.

While the day-in-and-day-out performance of the Flyer is admirable, yet it is not remarkable when one considers the Flyer itself, for it is the product of an organization that has acquired a pre-eminent position in the Automotive Industry through a continued observance of the best engineering practices.
