Production years: 2010, 2011
Available for purchase only in Canada, the 2011 MY Piaggio MP3 Sport 500 is a more sporty version of the big-bore MP3 500. As opposed to the base model, it boasts a more aggressive overall design, with edgier lines and a better overall performance, thanks to clever tweaks in the engine and its innards. In addition, it comes with a special, Titanium paint scheme, that is sure to make this machine stand out, no matter where one decides to ride it.
In the tech/engine department, it sports the same engine and CVT as the base model, the differences lying in the suspension system, which have been replaced with more performance-oriented ones.
