Thread: Piaggio mp3

Been working down in London last few weeks and everyone seems to be riding round on these. They are the scooters with 2 wheels at front and one at back for those who don't know. Also you don't need a bike licence to ride one just a car licence which I found surprising but had that confirmed at the dealer's today. They do a 300 and a 500cc models but the dealer didn't have one I could have a test ride on. Anyone ridden one and thoughts?

Piaggio MP3 Official Website - Piaggio.com

Trikecyclists you like, popular on the Isle of Man or with Siamese twins missing one leg

That 500cc one does 0-60 in under 6 seconds. Goes 100
Mph. 70mpg. 80 quid a year road tax. Less than 8 grand.

What's not to like?What insurance category is it?

You'd look like a massive horn blower driving one of those
