Used Yamaha TRICITY 300 TRIKE for sale in Maidstone
Yamaha Tricity 300 2024
The Bike you can ride on a car Licence!
The Yamaha Tricity 300 is a leaning three-wheeled Maxi Scooter that offers one key difference to the firm's other three wheelers,it can be ridden on a car licence. Legally, the tracking width between the Tricity 300's twin front wheels mean it is a trike (an ‘L5e’ if you want to get nerdy about it), so you don’t even need to take a CBT, let alone pass a bike test, to get behind the handlebars – just so long as you have a full car licence.
In technical terms, it’s an Yamaha Xmax 300 fitted with a modified version of the tilting, tandem-fork front end from the Tricity 125. Yes, it leans when it goes round corners. No, there’s no clutch or gears. Yes, it feels fairly similar to a normal scooter once you’re on the move, other than having more front-end confidence.
Brakes have a peculiar setup. Each of the Tricity’s 14-inch wheels has a 267mm disc and a single-piston caliper. Squeezing the right-hand lever operates the front brakes, while the left lever operates all three. Squeeze both levers together and you can feel the interconnectedness in the system. Alternatively, you can use the footbrake – a small pedal near your right foot – which also triggers all three brakes.
And, no, you don’t have to put your feet down when you stop – at least, not once you’ve got the hang of pressing the new ‘Standing Assist’ system button at just the right time. Pressing this locks the Tricity’s tilting mechanism (though not its suspension), meaning you can keep your feet up on the running boards without falling over. It’s designed for you to come to a stop, put your feet down, push the button then bring your feet up off the floor. But it can also be triggered below 6mph, so after a little practice it’s possible to lock it just as you come a stop, meaning you never have to put your feet down. You can disengage it manually with a double-tap, or simply open the throttle and ride away as it unlocks automatically. Locking the tilting mechanism also makes the Tricity easier to move around at walking pace – handy for getting it in or out of your garage, or pushing it back out of a parking space.
Other confidence-inspiring features include ABS and traction control, plus a parking brake to stop it rolling away. There’s keyless ignition, a centrestand and a 12-volt lighter-style power socket by your right knee. The huge 43.5-litre storage compartment under the seat is big enough for two lids.
This bike comes with some fantastic features:
- 292cc single producing 27.6BHP ULEZ Compliant. - Ride on a Car Licence L5e - ABS and Traction Control for all weather safety. - Keyless ignition for enhanced security - Massive 43.5 Litres underseat storage - 580 Miles with 2 Owner FSH. All books and keys - Yamaha Warranty Until 9/7/26.
Ride away within days!

Laguna Motorcycles Limited (which include multiple trading names: Laguna Motorcycles, Laguna Performance Centre, Laguna Triumph, Maidstone Honda, Maidstone Harley-Davidson® and Kent Motorcycles) is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Laguna Motorcycles Limited (which include multiple trading names: Laguna Motorcycles, Laguna Performance Centre, Laguna Triumph, Maidstone Honda, Maidstone Harley-Davidson® and Kent Motorcycles) to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.
We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.
Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.
Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.
All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required. Please see our complaints page for our complaints policy and regulatory complaints.
