Hey guys! Due to very little response from this new thread. I would like to invite all of you guys to make some noise and check out if there are any events upcoming in our Singapore Tuas circuit. Most importantly this new thread will also serve as a place for all of us to talk about anything that relates to racing, techniques, brakings, taking a corner...etc etc.

 

The scooter scene is still very small in Tuas unlike the Yamaha cubs. So i would like to promote this new thread for some of you guys here whom always wanted to know more about scooter racing and also where and when to watch. The upcoming race will be on 1st of March and it's open category.

 

If you are interested, you can post some of your enquiries. Our guys here are very friendly and willingly to reply your post.

 

Your support will be much appreciated.

Good luck bro for your 2A. MP3 brakes just the same as any other bikes on rainy days. Just have to be more careful. I managed to hit a top of 135km/h.

30+kg sounds like a lot of weight difference to me!

[kimoze]

trust me..i tried handling both .. to me no diff as u are not carrying the bike per se .. just handling it . 30+kg will only make a diff in the fuel consumption ..

[contrarian]

No difference in handling is not the same as no difference in weight.

30+kg more but with more power, yes the additional power compensates for the additional weight, but yes also it is much heavier.

[Brembo]

MP3 400 ie Maroon with rewrapped Brown seat

Original Reg date 29 Oct 2007

the 14inch LT (stands for large tread) will not hit singapore that soon cus that is manufacture specially for France at the present, cus there they can ride the 125cc with car license.

 

presently there will be no change for the MP3, just that the 250cc has stopped coming in and we will continue to sell the 400cc...

[kimoze]

Correct, but he wanted to know if there is a difference in handling, not carrying or even whether if its has more power...

[kimoze]

Piaggio MP3 Hybrid set for sale this summer

 

http://www.autobloggreen.com/2009/02/19/piaggio-mp3-hybrid-set-for-sale-this-summer/

 

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autobloggreen.com/media/2009/02/piaggio_mp3_hybrid_580.jpg

 

Piaggio has said that a new hybrid version of its MP3 three-wheeled scooter will debut in Italy and Spain later this summer. We'd wager a guess that the €150 million in low-interest loans from the European Investment Bank to Piaggio late last year spurred on the vehicle's development somewhat. The new hybrid scooter will reportedly be capable of about 12 miles using nothing but electricity, but the MP3's single cylinder, 250cc 125cc gas-powered engine will be able to kick in and provide extended range when necessary. Regenerative braking is also included in the package.

 

The MP3's electric motor should also provide a usable boost in performance, especially at low speeds, all the while promoting fuel mileage that could be as high as 140 miles per gallon. A lithium ion battery pack will be used by the MP3 Hybrid, which will take up to 4 hours to recharge and likely accounts for a large portion of the scooter's expected price range of €8,000 to €10,000 when it goes on sale later this year in Europe.
