1955 IWL Pitty brochure






The Pitty

Our Pitty, a fully encased scooter, is a vehicle that is equally suitable for urban and country driving. He is of help to our workers for professional use and be a loyal friend and companion for them in hours of relaxation.

Thanks to its excellent driving characteristics and operational safety, every trip is a special experience. Long distances can be traveled in comfort thanks to its practical 12-inch wheels.

The cladding of the Pitty offers complete protection against any kind of dirt on the wardrobe. The coil sprung bench comfortably seats two people. Lifting the seat up you can quickly access the petrol tank and check the spark plug.

The Pitty's cornering is excellent. The good lighting guarantees safe driving, even at night and in fog. The control panel includes indicator lights for idle, battery charge control and temperature control. Blower. Also on the dashboard is the speedometer, a clock and the combined ignition, lock and light switch.

Yes, this is the Pitty that will now conquer the streets of our German Democratic Republic. Symbol of progress in our state - and a really useful and reliable friend of our workers.

The proven two-stroke engine of the RT 125-1 M is the engine used in the scooter. It is efficient, reliable and particularly economical. A pressure blower takes care of its cooling. The power from the engine to the rear wheel is transmitted through an enclosed chain that is protected from dirt.

The sturdy steel tube frame is extremely stable and has double-welded reinforcements at the main load points. The rear wheel is fastened by a thru axle, which includes the drive and the brake drum in the swing arm assembly.

Front and rear wheels (full disc low-bed rims) are interchangeable. The brakes are powerful inner shoe brakes with a diameter of 150 mm. The foot brake acts on the rear wheel, the hand brake on the front wheel.

The Pitty has a front fork designed as a rocker arm and, like the rear wheel, has a travel of 70 mm.

The engine and the rear wheel are located on a common drive train swing arm, which is mounted below the engine and is supported against the frame by two strong spiral springs. Furthermore, two air pressure shock absorbers guarantee fatigue-free driving.
