Hot on the heels of the announcement by Piaggio that it will be releasing its MP3 250 three-wheeled scooter in the near future, comes the announcement from sister company Gilera that it has a monster 500cc version in the wings.
Called the Fuoco (fire), the very butch-looking beastie runs a 492cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled, fuel-injected four-valve powerplant claiming 40 horses at 7000rpm. It claims a top speed of over 150km/h while meeting Euro 3 emission standards.

By all reports these twin front wheel designs have phenomenal cornering grip, and this one just might appeal to the performance nuts out there.

They're still a long way from making it to Australia, but watch this space…
