** The MBP is a fascinating blend of the Triumph Tiger 1200 and the Suzuki V-Strom 1050. It has a majestic body and a muscular countenance, with 19 inches (48 cm) of front wheels and 17 inches (43 cm) of rear wheels.

The aluminium frame is even more distinctive: the V2 engine with a displacement of 997 cc produces an impressive 7,750 hp at 90 rpm and 5,000 Nm of torque at 95 rpm. However, this is not a Chinese copy of the Japanese model, but a masterpiece of domestic independent research and development.

The aluminium chassis consists of a long aluminium swingarm and shock absorbers at the rear, like a muscular athlete ready to go in the backcourt. At the front, a reboundable USD fork is like a nimble tentacle that leads the way forward, and the steering head has a travel of 160 mm, ensuring driving stability and handling.

The axle is 1,582 mm thick, which complements the distance implied by the swingarm and together forms the solid foundation of the car. With 120 70 ZR 19 at the front and 170 60 ZR 17 at the rear, the tyres are designed to ensure both driving comfort and top speed. And Brembo subsidiary JJuan's braking system is even more powerful, providing the vehicle with excellent braking performance.

It is also equipped with Bosch ABS and fuel injection systems, and the seat height is relatively low. Only 820 mm, while the dry weight of 235 kg is in the range, but far from lightweight. Especially since the MBP fuel tank has a capacity of 22 liters, the ready-to-use weight of the T 1002 V should be around 260 kg.

The MBP T 1002 V is rich in equipment with LED lighting, TFT display with 7-inch diagonal, Bluetooth, illuminated switches, driving mode, cruise control and tire pressure monitoring system. The price should be in the more than 90,000. After all, it has not yet been listed in Europe, and it will be sold for 12,000 euros.
