Italjet Dragster Limited Edition Scooter Sold Out Before Launch

Italian scooter manufacturer Italjet unveiled a special edition version of the Italjet Dragster to celebrate the launch of the new scooter. The special edition version has been unveiled in a distinctive colour and graphics scheme, with black fairings and a magnesium gold-coloured frame. The Italjet Dragster was supposed to go into production in May, but now that seems to be delayed, and it is expected to be launched in September 2020, with the Limited Edition also arriving at the same time. But all 499 units of the Italjet Dragster Limited Edition have already been sold out, even before launch. The Limited Edition model will be available in both 125 cc and 200 cc engine options.

Only 499 units of the Italjet Dragster Limited Edition scooter will be made

The standard model of the Italjet Dragster will be available in three colours, anthracite, red and white; anthracite and yellow; or black and grey. The scooter employs an independent hub steering system that has a new front single-arm made from aerospace aluminium alloy. The front suspension is fitted with a horizontal fork, instead of traditional forks. The exposed trellis frame finished in glossy colours complements the radical design. The Limited Edition livery will never be repeated so the bike should be a unique collector's piece for a scooter that is expected to be as unique compared to conventional scooters available on sale right now.

According to Italjet, 90 per cent of all Dragesters produced will be for export markets, and the UK and Germany will be among the biggest purchasers in Europe. The Italjet Dragster will be available in a choice of 125 cc and 200 cc engines, with the 125 cc variant offering maximum power of 14.9 bhp at 10,000 rpm and peak torque of 12.5 Nm at 7,750 rpm. The 200 cc engine puts out 19.8 bhp of maximum power at 8,250 rpm and 17 Nm of peak torque at 6,250 rpm. Although the Dragster is considered for some Asian markets, including the Philippines, India is not considered for now.

A 1200 cc modern classic with similar design lines as Triumph's iconic Bonneville series, has reportedly been cleared for production. The bike was showcased as a concept at last year's EICMA motorcycle show, and from the looks of it, this is a model developed in China with the Triumph Bonneville T120 in its sights. The Brixton brand though is part of Austria's KSR Group, which imports bikes from several Chinese manufacturers, including CF Moto. And while the new Bonneville rival will be manufactured in China, the design and engineering has been created at KSR's design centre in Krups, Austria.

While there still doesn't seem to be a buyer for iconic British brand Norton Motorcycles which went into administration in January this year, the firm's 650 cc parallel-twin seems to be finding life in China. While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen. The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
