Doodle Bug scooter
The Doodle Bug was a motor scooter built from 1946 to 1948 by the Beam Manufacturing Company of Webster City, Iowa, US. In the post-WWII world there was a surge in demand for inexpensive motor vehicles. It’s a time that gave rise to iconic scooters like the Vespa and Lambretta, and over in the United States the Doodle Bug and Cushman scooters appeared. The Briggs & Stratton NP engine was a very simple 4-stroke, side-valve, single-cylinder engine that was capable of up to 1.5 hp.
