MBK’s feet-forward luxury 125 shares everything but its name with Yamaha’s Majesty 125. Despite the scooter’s length, weight, and seat height, it is still very manoeuvrable. Dual piston Brembo callipers head a list of quality European components used, and rear disc brake adds to the stopping power. Well worth a test ride. (Tested as Yamaha Majesty T&G 2) & T&G 6.

The first thought that comes to mind when you see the new Piaggio MP3 is why? Until you’ve ridden one you’ll never truly understand; in a word it is sensational. The idea of bikes with three wheels isn’t a new one, but to have two wheels at the front acting on independent parallelogram suspension systems and actually being able to lean the scooter over to an angle of 40 degrees is just crazy!

MANUFACTURERS DESCRIPTION:
Fitted as standard on the Executive version, the sophisticated ABS-PBS braking system, combining Integrated braking + Power-assistance + ABS, outclasses every other competing scooter on the market by offering total rider safety and an astounding reduction in braking distances. This makes major impact in difficult conditions: poor road traction, changes in road surface, and situations many riders generally cannot handle.
The Executive version is also fitted with an Abus security chain which is anchored to the chassis of the bike within the storage compartment, and can be used to secure the bike to a railing or lamppost.

MANUFACTURERS DESCRIPTION:
The new Satelis 125 Compressor is a congestion-busting vehicle in every sense. It is exempt from the London Congestion Charge and will keep ahead of the traffic in any city with ease thanks to its super charged engine. Yet it is legal for leaner riders aged 17 and over because a 125cc engine powers it. The key to its performance is a compressor and the Satelis is the first Maxi scooter to be equipped with one

The C1 has been shown to be safe enough for most countries to sanction its use without a helmet. Not here though, where it loses its main attraction. People will buy the C1 just for that badge. Three different versions are available with different spec levels. No longer in production but still available, lookout for discounted models. Tested T&G 1, comparison T&G 4.

New from CPI is this 125cc version of their long running 50cc. Offers extremely good value for money not only because of the attractive price but also due to the standard two year warranty. Subsidied TPF&T is also available at a cost of £199. Hurrah for the Hussar!!

If you were cruel you could say that this is Kymco’s first really nice looking scooter. Uses Kymco’s liquid-cooled four-stroke, but has to pull 128kg so performance is relaxed rather than sporty. A large, comfortable machine with good spec and fine handling. Down-sides: tight helmet bay and mediocre price. Upside: 0%, 2 year finance package.

The smart-looking SYM Shark brings the Taiwanese manufacturer 125 offerings up to date in technology terms. The four-stroke engine boasts reasonable performance. The flashy rim-mounted disc brake works fine, as well as looking trick. A rear disc brake (Shark 125R) has been added. With a flat floor and fair sized helmet bay the Shark is practical enough. Tested T&G 4.
