New Italjet Dragster

Italjet Dragster

The aesthetic of the New Dragster does not leave any doubt on the aggressive character of a sport scooter.
The essential and unmistakeable line immediately arouses pure emotion and once in the saddle you will discover a power and an absolute manageability.

The dragster is intended for al those who love sport scooter with all the energy of a technological advanced engine and a fighting spirit of a futuristic design.

Every detail is designed for maximum visual effect: the front square and essential, the headlight narrow and low, the shield narrow and strictly matt black, the special frame and the hyper technological suspension make the Dragster unique, despite all the attempts to imitation.

For those of you who are new to the Dragster, here's a run-down of the Dragsters main features:

Instant visual appeal - designed using computer technology the essentially Ducati-inspired open trellis frame gives the Dragster its distinct character and sets it apart from all other Scooters. Built upon the trellis frame sits the radiator mounted in the nose of the bike. And the bodywork itself makes the Dragster look more like a sportsbike than a scooter.

Total control - what's initially striking about the Dragster is its suspension configuration. Engineers at Italjet have developed what they call the independent steering system (SIS). This involves the front hydro-pneumatic suspension positioned horizontally as opposed to the twin-fork configuration on most Scooters. This gives the Dragster a unique advantage in allowing greater manoeuvre-ability as the forces acting on the suspension are transferred away from the front wheel towards the center of the bike thus enabling greater control on bends and on bumpy surfaces.

The handlebars have also been placed at a slightly lower position meaning that the riders weight is slightly to the front of the bike again allowing greater control over the steering.

Goes like the proverbial - with a weight of only 107 Kg (125cc) and 109 Kg (180cc) means that the Dragster remains agile in order to provide brisk acceleration, 0-60 mph in 6 seconds (tuned) certainly gives the 'big bikes' a run for their money.
