Piaggio MP3

Post by 125erCrazy » Tue Apr 27, 2021 9:12 am

OK, open it up to the floor,

I've been offered a 2012 Piaggio MP3 300cc yourban (barn find! )

Price €1800

11253 miles, serviced at a dealers 2013/14/15 maybe 16 (paperwork missing at present)

Has been stolen/recovered in past but was literally a twisted steering column, dumped in the next road job, repaired.

Quick inspection all I can see wrong is bent front brake lever, headlamp bulb blown, handbrake doesn't always engage, nearside pillion footpeg missing. Slow puncture one front tyre.

Body panels pretty good condition for an ex London commuter.

New battery fitted last year & apart from the odd jaunt to turn wheels hasn't moved since 2016. Starts fine,engine sounds OK.

So I believe by 2012 Piaggio had sorted the ecu issues and water ingress. I believe head bearings where an issue but having been repaired would assume OK.

I cannot test ride due to my back so apart from the bleeding obvious (I think price is right) opinions from the learned herein please.
