Piaggio Mp3 500
The Piaggio Mp3 500 has a top speed of 160 km/h, produces 40 hp and weighs 271 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
Piaggio MP3 500 adalah bagian dari keluarga MP3 yang diperkenalkan oleh Piaggio pada tahun 2006, menampilkan sistem miring tiga roda yang inovatif dengan dua roda depan untuk meningkatkan stabilitas dan cengkeraman. Varian 500cc diperkenalkan sekitar tahun 2011 sebagai opsi perpindahan yang lebih besar yang menargetkan pengendara yang mencari lebih banyak kinerja di jalan raya sambil mempertahankan platform roda tiga miring yang unik. Ini terkenal karena dapat dikendarai dengan SIM mobil di beberapa negara Eropa (tergantung pada peraturan setempat) dan karena suspensi depan jajaran genjang canggih yang memungkinkan condong melalui tikungan seperti kendaraan roda dua tradisional.

Apa yang Harus Diketahui Pembeli
Unique Three-Wheel Stability
The MP3 500's patented dual front wheel system provides car-like cornering stability and can be locked upright at stops, making it exceptionally confidence-inspiring for new riders or those returning after a break.
Watch the Tilt Mechanism
The hydraulic tilting lock mechanism is the most common trouble spot — owners report it can leak or seize over time, and repairs can be costly, so always test the lock function before buying used.
Strong Resale Value
The MP3 500 holds its value better than most maxi-scooters due to its niche design and loyal following, but high mileage examples can drop sharply in price, making them excellent used-market bargains.
Generasi & Spesifikasi berdasarkan Tahun
Mesin silinder tunggal 493cc asli, ujung depan miring tiga roda, MP3 kelas 500 pertama diperkenalkan.
"Konsep brilian, tetapi 262kg tidak pernah membiarkan Anda melupakannya."
Saya menghabiskan hampir 8.000 km pada MP3 500 tahun pertama dan ujung depan roda tiga yang miring benar-benar melakukan apa yang diklaim Piaggio - trek trem basah dan garis bundaran yang dicat yang akan membuat kendaraan roda dua mengerut hanya menjadi suara yang tidak relevan. Model single 492cc ini menarik dengan bersih dari putaran rendah dan 40hp jujur cukup untuk perjalanan kota ke pinggiran kota, meskipun kehabisan nafas di atas 130 km/jam dengan cara yang terasa menyesal daripada mendebarkan. Bobotnya adalah masalah yang jujur: menyaring melalui celah perkotaan yang ketat membutuhkan komitmen nyata, dan jika Anda parkir di sesuatu yang lebih lembut daripada landasan, Anda melakukan deadlift satu orang untuk mengeluarkannya. Bagian depan itu juga memberi Anda rasa aman yang salah di tikungan yang dalam — cengkeraman ada di sana, tetapi geometri menghukum koreksi yang terlambat dengan kelambatan yang membuat pengendara baru lengah.

Ulasan Pembeli Bekas
"Brilliant urban weapon if you budget for its unique maintenance demands."
$4,500-$7,500 usedThe MP3 500 is genuinely brilliant in traffic — that third front wheel isn't a gimmick, it's transformative. You can filter through city gridlock with stupid confidence, and the leaning lock mechanism means you can plant both feet at red lights without toppling this 280kg beast over. Maintenance costs are where used buyers get burned, though. Those front suspension linkages need regular attention and specialist knowledge, and finding a dealer who actually understands the system is harder than it should be. Mechanically the 500cc single is bulletproof if serviced properly, but always check the front suspension pivot bearings — they're expensive and overlooked. Storage is genuinely useful, running position is comfortable for hour-plus commutes, and the brakes are excellent. Avoid anything without full service history on those front forks. Budget an extra $500-800 contingency for front-end work regardless.
