Monarscoot was a scooter built by Monarch in Varberg, Sweden, between 1957 and 1969 .
The Monarscoot was designed by Sixten Sason and is one of the moped models that in terms of design distinguished itself at that time. The engine was originally a German ILO with pedals. 1961 the rule that stated that mopeds must have pedals were removed, so pedals were no longer a requirement and the Monarscooten got footrest and kickstart. From 1964 on the Monarscoot was equipped wiht Husqvarna engines.
From then on the competitor, Husqvarna, licensed the Monarscoot and marketed it under their own name.
In context:
Sixten Sason was the man who designed the SAAB.
