Let's ponder a little bit more deeper guys.... What could happen if a total blow-out of one of the 2 front tyre occurs?

 

Depends on what speed you're travelling at I guess....

 

If you're going on normal roads, chances are you'll still be more able to bring the MP3 to a controlled stop compared to a normal 2 wheeler.

 

But if you're going at high 100~120km/hr, it's hard to say..... :faint:

Even the smallest spark can start a massive forest fire...

Monitored the FC on several occasion and concluded that it's on an average of 27 km/l. Depending on usage, the highest I've achieved was a close 29. But most of the time, I rode with a pillion..... I'm going to do one more gauge on the FC again to achieve a final FC. I'll update once I get it. I hope this info helps you guys...

I did once a trip up Malacca with the MP3 250 and clocking about the same FC around 27km/litre. But diference is I am whacking the MP3 round 130kmh almost all the time at the NS highway. Not to be surprised I tried a few occasions on the 125cc version and is clocking about the same reading. Guess this is the difference the 250 makes with a FI engine.

 

for the tyre blowout scenario, i would like to think that the MP3 would make a difference as theorically, MP3 would have stay upbright but tends to veer one side similar to cars are behaving.

 

Sufie bro...u did a good job of updating actual information for MP3 lovers.

Keep up the good work

u riding burgman meh????

 

i am actually quite keen in the MP3 ... only thing i dun like is the lack of leg room. It is a far cry from x9 and other maxi scoot.

 

Yah, have been for the past 2 years what.... :p

 

As for leg-room, maybe remove the the rider's backrest for more space?

:sweat:

Totally agree.... The leg-room for an mp3 is a far cry from my previous X8 and some other maxi scoots. When I went for my test ride on the mp3, I find it a bit uneasy to sit my legs at 90°. This caused me to worry too at the beginning before geting the bike but I somehow go about keeping my heels right at the edge of the "foot-rest" with my feet sticking out slightly at an angle by the sides. Anyway it feels so comfortable though.

 

My opinion..... This way it feels so much sporty rather than feeling a bit nerdish..so to speak..
