I had the 180cc 2 stroke in 1999 and it went like a rocket with a pmf exhaust pipe. Loved it. Unfortunately it got stolen 4 times which I retrieved 3 times but not the last theft. I used to hear it occasionally being ragged around the exhaust note barp barp barp… The one that got away. Shame….

I bet my Yamaha Aerox 155 would see this Italjet off at the lights, which is all you need in a city scooter. I have to admit the Dragster looks better, though.

Some of the metal finishes and fasteners succumb to the elements really quickly at the coast, depending on conditions and level of user care. At a price like that, one would expect the use of manufacturing materials less reminiscent of a Chinese scooter. You'd never ever know, when it's flirting with you on the showroom floor, but leave it in the rain a few times in the first year or 2 of ownership, and see.

It looks good but you would of thought they put a 15 bhp engine in it instead of 12 bhp as every bit of power counts when its only a 125

I don't agree with your comments on performance. As an owner of a dragster it's much better than anyother in it's range. All that said it also is an igon for style that you can't find aswere.

04:14 “adding a further R250,000” 😂 Anyway, great design and might make sense in a congested European town somewhere where style matter more than substance but to me, underneath all the bells and whistles, it’s still just a scooter…sold at a price that can get you something 2nd hand (or possibly even new) which has both style and sunstance

Performance stuck in the past? When shall people realize a 125-200cc four stoke never have and never will have any direct power. It is a myth that the old 125-180cc two stroke scooters had extreme power as well. They had the same top speed but slightly better accelration at the cost of fuel economy. These kind of scooters have a top speed in reality of 100-110 km/h, thats it…….
