hahahaa...that means 2 additional pairs of brake pads...

 

increased chances of a puncture...meaning an additional $90 michelin gold standard...

The 2 front wheels have 1 brake disc each.

X8/9 have a total of 3 brake discs right?

If so, MP3 has the same number.

Yup extra tyre, but the actual extra cost might not be so high.

With 2 front wheels, there is lesser wear, so the two front tyres last longer.

maybe not...

 

cos having 2 tyres will also increase your contact with the road...and increase your chances of a puncture...

 

anyway....any updates of its availibility?

Increased contact also means increased safety!

Piaggio reported to give S$300 rebate if you buy the 250cc version within 6 mths of getting your Class 2A, but 125cc will also be brought in [as reported in Motobuyer]

Rekindling this thread!

 

I chanced upon this italian bike mag that features the MP3

they have a really different way of testing it...

They push the MP3 to the limit on the tracks and comparing it to an X8

 

they tried these.....

i think i dun dare to do these even with a suit!

but this MP3 should be good to go round the Cameron corners...

 

Well Italians are nice to look at but i felt they have somehow improved quite a bit.

but of course, the words ECONOMIC still belongs to the Japs.
