Thanks Simon!

well done review! Thumps up!

So, lets do a rehearsal: MP3 300 hpe brakes better than the medley,grips better on the corners,has better weather protection and abs with asr as standard.Also is more comfortable and faster too,even if you din't said it clearly.Moreover has an instrument panel with all the info you would ever want,with Piaggio s MIA interface available if wanted. On the other hand,medley splits lanes more easily and is cheaper to get and maintain.We didn't see if those 2 helmets actually fitted in the medley. The decision is to the people who are interested in buying them and not to you two!!!

Lovely video, allot of questions someone would have, have been answerd! awesome : )

Very helpful, thanks guys

Thanks for the video! I upgraded my MP3 new top case railing on top the case & saddle bags plus longer windshield!

I wish the MP3 300 was available in North America. The MP3 500 has been here for years now.

Very informative, thank you.

Appreciate you guys doing this video in English. Cheers.

Thanks for the English guys and a great video.

Nice jacket! Would you mind to tell the brand and model? I'm looking for one exactly like that! Thanks!

They feel really stable.

Would you recommend this to someone who has problems with falling over on fast turns on a normal two wheeled scooter

On my MP3 I find it is better when you have the steering locked to not give it just a little bit of throttle when you take off from a dead stop give it about half throttle and it will take off in a straight line no problem if you do not they have a tendency to lean a little bit to the left or to the right that you have to correct right away

Thank u guys:) I am a car guy, bought my mp3 today, good luck to me:p

What was the model of the second one?

Given the wide front fairing on the MP3 does it offer any better weather protection on inclement days ?

Especially with a big windscreen and a Turcano Urbano

I got myself a 500cc HPE MP3 LT 2019. It have room for 2 full-helmets. But both helmets has to be on the side. I don't understand the problem with the wide wheel base. Handlebar are wider the the weels. And you don't get more balance, then you got. Just for adding another wheel. You still fall over, if you tink its like a car or a trike/ATV, with to wheels at the back. But you get more grip with 3-wheels. I hardly use the locking system on the front wheels. It can quickly make the bike fall to one of the sides. It tends to push the bike over to one of the sides when unlocking. It may be that one of the locks will release before the other. Will check with the garage, if they can do something about the problem.

Howdy, Would you recommend this for city use on a regular basis over a normal scooter ? In order to get a 150cc + scooter i need to get A. Oh si ocazional un drum de mare ? :) Multumesc anticipat.

Sa Fugim Salutare. Noi, motociclisti fiind, intotodeauna vom prefera un scuter normal - mai simplu, mai usor, mai ieftin. Dar daca n-ai chef sa-ti iei permisul de A, poti folosi un MP3 fara probleme. E simplu de pilotat, sigur, comod. Viteza maxima e de 120 km/h. Nu te poate opri nimeni sa mergi la mare cu el, dar trebuie sa stii ca vei merge cu 80-100, in general. Apropo, saua este suficient de comoda pentru o astfel de calatorie :)

N-am mers cu 500. E mai mare, deci trebuie sa fie mai potrivit pentru drumuri lungi, dar e cu siguranta mai greu de manevrat in trafic.

Where can I get one to buy

THX guys for video. I am just considering to sell my Piaggio Medley and buy MP3.

@sjale2007

Hey! I just did EXACTLY that, and waiting for my MP3 arrival. After this video i am a bit worried about lane splitting, which i need to do in my city, and whether i can flip it on sideways...what is your experience?

WHERE CAN SOMEONE BUY ONE OF THESE

The 300 is much heavier than the 150 so at low speed it is going to feel more unstable. Lane filtering or splitting is going to be more difficult because it is wider at the front so approach the idea with caution. Tow contact patches is much safer and the locking of the front wheel means you don't put your feet down at the lights. It has plenty of speed and power and would be ideal for those who haven't ridden before and also for older riders who are finding holding up a bigger bike difficult.

Great enginearing

I think if you had the 500hpe, you would have had a better impression of the MP3. For such a heavy maxi, 23ps is not enough. 500 is double the power and much more fun.

The greatest effort is driving in rain. There is much more confidence as with a normal bike...

How a cycle brakes and handles in the rain is the most important feature to me because I ride wet or dry and I ride in third world countries with extra dangers and they never talk about it. Why do I say so? Because during or immediately after rain is when more accidents happen. The dual disk ABS on the MP3 will absolutely kick the ass of any two wheel braking scooter. It has been shown in test that the stand mp3 braking matches the braking distances of Gran Prix racing bikes. Other than my comment it was a very extensive review and discusssion and I enjoyed it a lot. I just wish that MP3 where available worldwide

I wish I could get one. At age of 70, I can not handle my heavy Harley Davidson it is two much load on my legs in city traffic jam of Dhaka city.

How much these

How much price

I getting Piaggio mp3 because i wear knee braces!

7000 euros are you kidding me ....they need to pull down the prices to atleast 5999.

I've got an mp3, and I have years of experience riding Scooters. Not sure it's a good idea for car drivers with no riding experience to ride any bike or trike without competent training!

You should test the braking distances and then work out how much money your life is worth lol

Here's an idea: have both guys ride both scooters. The guy on the Medley is going to base what he thinks upon what someone else thinks? And vice versa?? Stupid. Have both guys ride both. Who wouldn't want to know first-hand?? Do the whole review over again.
