Piaggio MP3
Believe it or not, a ZX14 rider is actually going to buy a 250cc 3-wheeled MP3 scooter from Piaggio. The suspension on the front two wheels works so well that I am certain that most motorcycle manufacturers will deconstruct an MP3 and test the concept for a standard motorcycle. Stability is enormous on many different street surfaces and braking is sensational due to 3 disk brakes. I aggressively leaned the scooter into corners with abandon and the traction was excellent. I jammed on the brakes as well and the bike just stopped without jitters.
I admit that power is anemic and not squeezing the left brake lever (where our clutch lever is) takes some getting used to, but this thing was a blast to ride.
Google Piaggio MP3 and you'll get lots of info.
I am NOT a Piaggio dealer.

Piaggio as a topic in a ZX14 stills smells like fried
