Hi I'm asking 10,000 Euros and it has done 26k.

Hey Whi are you selling it?

Inferior. In a word. I have seen them, handled them and very inferior in my opinion.

Absolutely. Yes. And way more stable in the wet !

I am definitely counter steering. In fact I think I will set up the cameras top and bottom and show this on some tight twisties out here.

I have 2 Sincetop mounts, both work really well.

The GPS is not up to date as it has speed limits that are not correct and turns that do not exist (one way streets for example). I wouldn't cal it sophisticated by any stretch of the imagination and I certainly wouldn't pay for it when there are better FREE apps out there.

@@TenerifeRider Good to know, thanks for the info!

Thanks, appreciated.

I think you'll like. I was hooked from day 1 on my old 400cc.

Hi Top speed 160 Kmph and very stable.

I get the same at 120 Kmph but I am getting the wheels balanced soon to solve that.

I'd have to check but certainly less than 100€. It's only an oil & filter change and revision.

@@TenerifeRider thx a lot :)

they do yes.

I'm about the same age and I'd agree.

62, and contemplating the same. Going to hire one of these on holiday, and see how it rides. Looks very good though...

@@philg7889 let us know...

I'm 54 and my first step into scooters after 30 years was a Suzuki 200 Burgman . I ride it like I stole it. It handles the mountains so well that only my skill level keeps me from going faster. I upgraded to a Can Am Ryker and is does not disappoint but it doesn't lean and it gets 24 mpg so I don't ride it much. I added a Suzuki Burgman 650 which I sold after 5 months and nearly wrecking it. It's too heavy to lean even though it was blazing fast. I just test rode a 2010 piaggio 500 and it did not disappoint. Not quite as fast as the 650 burgman but I am considering a new 530 because I need the traction and all the fancy bells and whistles that can keep me safe. I never fully trusted the 650 in the corners like I do on the 200. I couldn't do any better on the 650 outside of coming out of the corner. I may need some knee pads for the 530. They should call this thing the wet pavement and traffic killer.

Thanks. I'll be doing more about the features os the scooter soon so feel free to subscribe.

Glad you liked. I wasn't even aware of how long it was until I rendered it but decided to keep everything in as it really is worthwhile watching for anyone who is thinking of buying or who owns a Piaggio MP3 530.

Glad it was helpful!. The ONLY way that can happen is if you lock it, walk away and leave the ignition on. Another way (and I have seen a video of this) is mounting from the right with the ignition on as your knee can catch it. Whenever I am showing the controls to anyone I always say "DO NOT TOUCH THAT BUTTON".

Thanks for sharing!

Regarding the clock. I cover that in the review video I made... th-cam.com/video/agtSlDNAs8w/w-d-xo.html

It really is quite economical... th-cam.com/video/Z9riumH8mIw/w-d-xo.html

That's interesting actually. I didn't know it did that. Thanks.

Enjoy. Any questions just ask.

@@TenerifeRider For the last days I have driven the first 300 km with my 530 hpe.. Before this one I had the Peugeot metropolis 400i for a year. I do like the piaggio. It is stronger and feels more sturdy on uneven roads.The only thing I don"t like. It gives a lot of motor vibration. at idle and slow speed. I hope that will be better when it gets driven in. Did you also notice that ? ps I used your video again. I wanted to reset the trip computer . And it did not work out with the book. So thank you again. Greetings Wim.

@@wimaroI find in comfort mode it rides smoother at lower speeds and opens the throttle more gently. I did a video here on the different riding modes that might help: th-cam.com/video/Z9riumH8mIw/w-d-xo.html

You're 100% right. You would think more thought would have been put into this pretty fundamental application. Once paired it works well enough. I like the fact that I get notifications of calls and a partial WhatsApp message letting me know whether I should stop and take the call or not. However, the navigation app is like something out of the 90s and I never use it.

@@TenerifeRider Its very true, i see now its useless ... Would youi have an advice for fixing a phone in a handy way (i mean for the eyes !!) I have issues with the heat here and there, it heats up too much and then it puts the screen off. I hoped so much i could mirror Plans or Google Maps on the screen, but, no !! And a second unrelated question, if you don't mind, i hace a Neotec helmet without audio system and don't want to spend lots in buying the full fledged one, is it possible just to buy an audio that fits into the helmet and connects via bluetooth ?

The mounts I use are Sincetop@@tangistanguy attached to the mirror stalks. The phones never get too hot in that location and are shielded from the wind and rain a little which helps. Regarding comms: I do not use one as I tried and found it distracting. Sorry I can't help on that.

@@TenerifeRider Thanks a lot !!

I know and it lets you know JUST how heavy it is if you forget in a turn or while manoeuvring. I dropped the 400 parking one time and once it passed that point of no return I just had to get it down as smoothly as I could.

Thanks ✌️

No. Absolutely not. I do roughly 2,500 - 3,000 Km a month and it's inevitable that I'll come across idiots but they rarely catch me by surprise like the guy in the motorhome.

And as if by divine intervention the exact thing happened to me today. Video to come.

Probably. You can't see on camera but I zoomed in later and they looked down the road I was on and like most drivers didn't do a 2nd check before entering the roundabout. I have a 530cc scooter but from the front it just looks like a 125 so it's kind of understandable that people pull out.

Good question. For the front shot on the handlebars on a 70cm selfie stick. For the trucking (side) shot on the stand And for the suspension shot on the nose right at the bottom but that was a tight squeeze.

We run guided tours here and yes, the roads are far better than the UK.

I am indeed.

I disagree. I was already on the roundabout, came on 3 junctions earlier.

​@@TenerifeRiderThat roundabout has 2 lanes, you were in the inside lane, he merge onto the outside lane. As he was already merging onto the outside lane did you only change lanes.
