It reminds us of the Paiggio MP3. Under a development concept of a Cornering Master, the MWT-9 mounts a 3-cylinder 850cc engine on a seamless and dynamically styled body. The exceptional cornering performance provided by the twin front wheels and the bank angle maximized by the outward positioned front suspension forks enable a high level of performance that lets the rider go freely through twisty roads with ever-changing road surfaces and dotted with tight curves in succession.
