Piaggio MP3 for sale

Passed WOF on 20/05/2020. Rego valid till 25/01/2020.
In excellent condition with very less kilometres run (just 16k). Well looked after with regular timely servicing from authorised workshops only. Couple of marks/scratches, which are hardly noticeable, nothing major.
I bought this bike after having several near-miss accidents on my previous 2 wheeled scooter and it has never let me down. It has marvellous rider stability. The 3 wheels/tyres grips the road even on wet conditions making it perhaps the safest bike on road.
It has one of the best braking in bike world thanks to the disc brakes on all the three wheels, making it the safest one on road even in wet and slippery roads. It also has additional parking brake on the rear disc brakes.
The front dual wheels makes the drive very smooth and extremely stable. Even on Motorways it drives excellent and with just half throttle it speeds to over 100kmph, with a max speed of 180kmph.
