2008 Piaggio MP3 500 Scooter Review Read the full scooter review at Motorcycle.com. www.motorcycle.com This is not your grandma's scooter, to say the least. The three-wheeled MP3 goes around corners like a motorcycle thanks to some innovative engineering and looks like a cross between a grasshopper and a transformer. If Darth Vader had a scooter, this would be it.

It's amazing that it has taken this long for someone to think of it...The Piaggio MP3 LT is a scooter that you can ride with just a normal (car) driving license. How? Why? You might well ask...well, it's a three-wheeled scooter.
