2024 Italjet Dragster 700 Twin Fully Revealed
The 2024 Italjet Dragster 700 Twin was teased a couple of times previously, and has finally been revealed in its entirety.
It is easy to see that it will be aimed at the Yamaha TMAX 560 and Honda Forza 750 in terms of performance, but the Dragster 700 is a stripped down and purely sport model without the frills of run-of-the-mill scooters. In fact, the Italjet’s chief said that he does not want to call it a “scooter.” Hence there is no forward and underseat storage spaces, footboards, and large windscreen.
The 68hp, parallel-twin, liquid-cooled, DOHC, 4-valve per cyclinder engine is sourced from Benelli and mated to a manual six-speed transmission, as standard. It is way more powerful than the TMAX’s 47 hp and the Forza’s 58 hp.
As we mentioned earlier, the higher spec Factory Edition includes Öhlins suspension, Brembro brake calipers, Akrapovič exhaust, and a black/gold livery. Common components for both standard and Factory Edition versions are underseat exhaust, Marzocchi USD forks, adjustable rear shock, 15-inch wheels, twin front disc brakes, Öhlins steering damper.
Italjet had opened the bookings for the Factory Edition since 12 July and will last until the last day of the EICMA 2024 show, or if all 700 limited units had been soon prior to that.
And finally, the price. the standard 2024 Italjet Dragster 700 Twin version will cost around €12,900 (RM 65,688.64), while the Factory Edition costs €14,900 (RM 75,872.50). These prices will of course be jacked up so much higher due to taxes and duties if the bike makes it to Malaysia.
