ScooterStation announced the new model here;
https://moto-station.com/scooter-statio ... 350/394527
And it is the Bev engine.
Along with that , the 13"& 14" wheels and wet clutch it would be my choice if ever my trusty 250 has to be retired. During the wet winter months the MP3 is my go-to ride. My T Max being kept for rides in less inclement weather.
One of the best mods I made to the MP3 was converting the back wheel to a 14" from the later models.
Gives a slightly higher gearing and more comfort...important for us old chaps(83)
