What Is It?

The Piaggio MP3 400 is a premium three wheeled maxi scooter and is powered by a Euro 5 compliant liquid cooled 399 cc single cylinder engine, producing 34.9 bhp at 7,000 rpm and maximum torque at 5,500 rpm. 

Features include:

• Steel tubular frame
• Automatic CVT gearbox with belt final drive
• Dual 258 mm wavy discs up front with single piston calipers
• 240 mm disc at the rear with single piston caliper
• Continental ABS system
• Steel braided brake lines
• Front suspension with 85 mm travel
• Adjustable dual rear shocks with 102 mm travel
• Traction control
• Dual analogue + LCD dash
• LED indicators, taillight and DRL
• Centre stand
• Bag hook

The front wheels can be locked when upright, below 5 mph and indicated by a few beeps, to keep it steady at the lights or when parked. It auto-releases the lock when you set off. The advantage of two front wheels and fancy suspension is increased grip in the corners and while braking.

For storage there is a large underseat compartment and a glovebox above the dash with a USB port.

The 5-spoke 13" front wheels take 110/70 tyres and the rear 14" a 140/70.

Accessories include a 50 litre top box with pillion backrest, 37 litre top box, 30 litre topbox, 42 litre panniers, tall screen, comfort seat and connectivity.

Colours: Black, white, grey, blue

MP3 stands for Piaggio bike with three wheels and due to the distance between the front wheels it's classified as a trike so it can be ridden on a car licence. The foot brake applies the front and rear brakes.
