Solid
build quality, a brisk engine and superior technology suspension
make the Italjet Dragster the most exciting of its kind.
Mind you, it won't come cheap in its present guise, and
the big question mark remains as to what engine Kinetic
finally decides as apt for a possible Indian version. Having
brought a scooter this exciting to our shores, one expects
a motor as fast as the one in this story. If and when that
happens, we won't sympathise with reade rs
writing in to grumble on grounds of price or mileage.
The Dragster has the potential to build a strong following
in India. It will also open up a completely new segment
on debut — sports-scooters — and who knows where
that leads?
TESTERS
NOTES
Switchgear as solid as it gets.
Cluttered floorboard looks cramped but is no cause for concern.
Seat looks thin but surprisingly offers ample support.
