piaggio mp3 500cc 3 wheeled scooter

[@genegoodwin8925]

I think the real advantage of a MP3 is the tilt lock system. My wife always rides with me and she walks with a walker. She can climb on a three wheeled machine whereas a two wheeled machine would fall over.We have a $37,000 HD Tri Glide. I can buy a MP3 and save $27,000. There are many disabled people in our world who could ride a MP3 but couldn't dream of riding a two wheeled machine.

[@Ridingreviews]

You make a good point if it works fir you

[@archenemy6893]

I've got the smaller version mp3 300, it's offers a great riding experience with superb handling and a visible road presence. I like that it's big and bulky looking, but with that said it's not that nimble in dense traffic, but it's manageable.

[@Ridingreviews]

The power is good but manoeuvrability isnt great

[@stevemerrick351]

video is a downer. the dude is clueless to this incredible bike and its features. currently own a 2020 Piaggio MP3 500cc. LOVE LOVE LOVE it! not sure why this dude is half asleep, but has zero knowledge of this incredible bike.

[@Ridingreviews]

Everyone to there own this clueless person isnt keen on it and this clueless person has rode over 4000 bikes

[@Ridingreviews]

@X U the engine is really good i just don't like the 3 wheels

[@colinclarke4285]

@@Ridingreviews I think the majority of people who buy these are going to be car licence holders (such as myself) if you had a bike licence you're probably going to get 2 wheeler

[@Ridingreviews]

@@colinclarke4285 amen to that lol

[@sabbottart]

I appreciate your opinion. I would also prefer a normal bike. Though this intrigues me as I live in a high crime area and I don’t think two guys and a van would bother with this.

[@Ridingreviews]

probably not remember i dont have these bikes long and i only get a sneak peak at them so i carnt do a live with review this might be the best thing since sliced bread for some people

[@colinclarke4285]

@@Ridingreviews in my case that's exactly how I described it...the best thing since sliced bread...but everybody has different needs and for reasons I've stated previously (plus a leg injury that makes riding anything higher than 125cc difficult) these are great

[@Ridingreviews]

@@colinclarke4285 i am a bike rider and to me they feel off but I'm sure after riding them for a while it would be fine

[@davespooney8472]

Would love one of these, quick things in 500 form. Be fun on track. Looking at them without comparing them to motorcycles helps me like them though 👍

[@Ridingreviews]

Im sure it just needs some getting used to and it will be good

[@gjohnint]

Once you get used to them and use them on the twisties and dualways/mways they perform like a normal bike.

[@Ridingreviews]

I think there is a bike out there for everyone i know these have there market because its a hi power bike on a car licence once you get used to it im sure you would get used to it

[@Ineedyoulou]

I'm buying the 500cc version this summer .. can't wait

[@Ridingreviews]

If it's your first bike, it's good if you have rode before it takes a bit of getting used to

[@baldvale5418]

Interesting machine, even though it has 3 wheels it seem's to hold the road very well. I like the idea of being able to ride it with a Grandad licence, it sure beats the other 3 wheeled option (the plastic pig) All the best.

[@Ridingreviews]

naa stick a 2 litre engine in a plastic pic that will be fun

[@arthurfleck9766]

Wow! This guy hasn’t got a scoobies. The clock is ticking, the bomb goes off in 5 seconds yet this gentleman can’t even lift the seat before it goes off. Kaboom! You’ve just spoilt what could have been a sort of review.

[@Ridingreviews]

You could allways do your own review and see how hard they are todo there goes the boom

[@arthurfleck9766]

Read the manual, read it again then practice

[@Ridingreviews]

@@arthurfleck9766 its a second hand bike there was no manual

[@garrykelly]

We are looking at one of these for an old pal of mine. He has a disability and walks with the aid of a stick. Has not long passed his CBT and rids a 125cc small scooter (only just manages) He wants a bigger bike. Can an (L) plate take his bike test one of the theses?

[@Ridingreviews]

No, sadly not, but if you have a car licence, you can ride it. That is the unique thing about this bike

[@garrykelly]

The guy meets these requirements (Provisional cat A & B) and is physically disabled

[@Ridingreviews]

@Culture Lounge you would need a full car licence or a full bike licence to ride this bike because this is a 500cc but he can ride the 125cc version

[@mywestsussex5749]

I have one and it's great BUT at walking speed it very unbalance take caution. Also when turning at very low walking speed it wants to tip over

[@Ridingreviews]

They just feel unnatural to me

[@BigVVS]

You fully f**ked it looking at the back to open the seat then brushed it off

[@Ridingreviews]

Had a bad xmus did we no need for that

[@bfarm44]

Probably shouldn’t review things you know nothing about nor can you show it’s features and yes it holds a full face helmet in the rear which passes all the way through, if you knew how to operate it properly

[@Ridingreviews]

Ok you do a review on it it isnt easy doing them

[@CEO_Belal]

Hello mate I just installed a 26mm carb and bike sounds much better almost as good as ur intro but it still only goes up to 29mph

[@Ridingreviews]

Sorry witch bike was it carnt remember i have had about 200 conversations since then lol

Riding reviews U there mate😂?

[@Ridingreviews]

Sorry did you use the slider with the new carb or the older one

[@gjohnint]

One of the most stupid and dangerous ideas about an MP3 500 is the ability to drive one on a car licence with no prior motorbike experience. The scoot is heavy, it handles like a bike and above walking speed needs to be leaned to get round a corner. A car licence does not prepare s new rider.

[@Ridingreviews]

Its the same as grandfathers rights for a 50 you dont need any experiance to ride one of them evan at 30 you can do some danage

[@colinclarke4285]

@gjohnint you have a valid point and piaggio offer free training with new models...as regards to experience...its no different to the law which allows full bike licence holders to jump in a 3 wheeler car without ever having had a driving lesson...so it works both ways

[@ascelot]

least getting car license doesnt require stupid amount of money per hour to train, hours of travel time to test centres and anyone with full driving licence and insurance for both can help a learner drive car on provi license

[@dino599]

My apologies but so many videos people are not doing their homework first in order to give coreect information

[@Ridingreviews]

In what respect please

[@stevenmacdonald8260]

You do realise that on the direct gov website it does state that as long as you are over 21 and have a full cat b licence you can drive this trike it all changed again in 2014 that you could drive trikes in uk territory

[@Ridingreviews]

Yes i know and a side car and a piagio mp3 500cc

[@colinclarke4285]

@X U yes you are...if you are riding these on a car licence you effectively have a FULL licence with all the rights that accompany that

[@dino599]

You should not be doing this type of work cause you know fuck all anout anything

[@Ridingreviews]

wow that's rude if you do not have something nice to say shoosh

[@gerryattrickbiker]

Is there an option for a commode seat in order that you can crap yourself, until you get used to it? 🤔

[@Ridingreviews]

It is a bit of a do it yourself you can drill a big hole

[@trevorcox3669]

Front is very unstable at stop or very slow in traffic

The design and lack of gears

[@nitrorory]

Oh no that’s horrible. I’d rather just have a car instead of that. I’d definitely stick with a normal scooter

[@Ridingreviews]

I think the idea of this was you can have a fairly hi powered scooter but not have to take a bike licence if you have a full car licence you can ride this you dont even need a cbt

@@Ridingreviews that's exactly right...piaggio engineered these around the trike rules to comply with the legislation regarding wheel track etc..its 5mm over ..minimum track width is 460mm these are 465mm
