Unfiltered Exhilaration On The 2023 MV Agusta Dragster RC SCS

The 2023 MV Agusta Dragster RC SCS is the epitome of power, style, and cutting-edge technology.  At the heart of the Dragster RC SCS lies a three-cylinder, 798cc engine that churns out an impressive 140 horsepower with 12 valves and a double overhead camshaft and DLC tappet. The engine is cooled by separated liquid and oil radiators, ensuring optimal temperature even in the most demanding conditions. One of the most remarkable features of the Dragster RC SCS is its innovative Smart Clutch System (SCS).

This advanced technology allows for seamless shifts of the six-speed cassette style gearbox without the need for a clutch lever, making your rides smoother and more enjoyable. The Continental ABS system with Rear Wheel Lift-up Mitigation (RLM) and cornering function ensures safety at all times.

The Dragster RC SCS is a true work of Italian art, combining aggressive lines and a muscular stance which is complemented by the RC only paint scheme that draws attention wherever you go. The Dragster RC SCS features an ALS steel tubular trellis frame that provides a firm foundation for the bike’s performance. The front suspension is a Marzocchi upside down fork with a TIN aluminum treatment and anodized fork legs, while the rear suspension is Sachs single shock.

MV Agusta has packed the Dragster RC SCS with a range of cutting-edge features to enhance your riding experience. The advanced TFT dashboard provides clear and intuitive information at a glance, keeping you informed without distractions. Additionally, the Dragster RC SCS boasts a comprehensive suite of electronic aids, including multiple riding modes, traction control, cruise control and more to ensure optimal performance and safety.

As if all that wasn’t enough, MV has an optional Race Kit to make this model even more exclusive.  Opt for the SC Project race exhaust and you receive a special ECU mapping to take full advantage of its performance.  The clear clutch cover stands out visually and makes this limited model even more exclusive.  Performance is further enhanced by the roughly 18 pound weight loss due to this upgrade!
