    I think the manufacturer was just looking for a " catchy" name to attract attention. They also put a decal of a chicken on the gas tank. Really a good set-up if you are running on mostly level ground, & you are not too big. Mine takes me about 18mph on level pavement & I weigh 170. That is an Ohllson & Rice engine & they are of great quality!
