Italjet Dragster 300 Arrives in Malaysia, Offered in Exclusive Malossi and Gresini Editions
Okay, we’ll start by saying that we like Italjet Dragster (125 and 200) because it looks as if Lego designed it into a live-sized Lego Technic kit, that reveals all its mechanical parts, along with a centre-hub steering. Now we have more to cheer about as the Italjet Dragster 300 has arrived in Malaysia.
The Dragster 300 prototype was first shown off at EICMA, utilising the present Dragster 125 and 200’s platform. The bike enters the market in two special editions, namely the Gressini Racing Team Edition, and Malossi Edition, complete with the obligatory winglets.
