» Piaggio MP3 125: a three-wheels Scooter
(January 2007)

The innovative three-wheels Piaggio MP3
scooter now aims to conquer all youngests.
After catching the attention of older customers with both
versions of 250 and 400 cc it now shows itself even in a 125 cc
version.
Piaggio Mp3 is characterized over all by high safety and
exceptional stability, and this are very important
characteristics over all as far as young drivers are concerned.
Piaggio MP3 125 is powered by a 4 valves liquid-cooled engine.
This little Piaggio “hearth” is lightly renewed to optimize
power supply, which nows is more fluid.
Thanks to some tehcnocal changements, Piaggio MP3 125 is
supposed to guarantee an enhanced manoevrability.
We should remark also the 12 litres tank which allows a long
autonomy to Piaggio MP3 125, which is said to be around 300 Km.
For young riders
With the PIAGGIO MP3‘s three-wheeled design, it is no longer
necessary to use a centre stand to keep the scooter upright.
Instead, the scooter is equipped with a revolutionary
electro-hydraulic front suspension locking system that keeps the
vehicle upright by a simple press of a switch on the handlebars
that can be used when parked or stationary in traffic.
If the speed is between 23 and 10 kph (14 and 6 mph), the
butterfly valve is closed and the revs are below 3,000 rpm, a
sound and visual alert informs the rider that they can activate
this lock by a switch operated by the right thumb, and the MP3
becomes self-supporting. Then they no longer have to put their
foot down when at a standstill or use the central stand to park
the MP3, particularly since it is equipped with a parking brake!
The tilt mechanism is automatically released as soon as the
speed exceeds 15 kph (9 mph).
