I have an MP3500 and a 2003 Silverwing. They are different rides. I
am still getting used to the MP3, and I like the way the weight is
more evenly distributed than on the Silverwing. However, you can't
beat the takeoff and the smooth ride that the Silverwing has. Both
are fun. MP3 500 book says "manufacturer doesn't recommend riding
this vehicle on the freeway". I think it would be fine; it doesn't
seem to have any trouble with 60 or 65 on a highway. The verdict is
still out; I need more practice. See photos. Diane
