MV Agusta Dragster RR SCS America.
The "America" versions of MV Agusta models pay tribute to the United States, the land of the free, adventure, epic journeys. And, naturally, racing.
1973 saw the launch of the iconic 750S, flaunting the American flag's colours to highlight the importance of this specific market. Many years later, in 2004, the "America" name became associated with another model, the Brutale 750. This motorcycle created the sports naked segment. 2012 saw another four-cylinder steal the scene: the Brutale 1090 RR America. This model was the most powerful naked ever produced by MV Agusta up to that point.
Five years later, in 2017, a new platform was introduced, which gave birth to the three-cylinder Brutale 800 RR America, which stood out for its combination of design, performance, and engine technology. This model was followed in 2018 by the Dragster 800 RR America, an exclusive limited edition model of only 200 units.
2023, MV Agusta celebrates its most important market with a new, exclusive 300-unit edition of the new Dragster RR SCS America. The uniquely numbered special edition model, available only in North America, is part of this market's strategic vision and emphasis for the future of MV Agusta.
This new Special Edition stands out with its dedicated colour scheme that, like its predecessors, recalls the colours of the US flag and is enhanced with a dedicated seat with hand-stitched "America Special Edition" wording.
The attention to detail is seen in the aerodynamic carbon-fibre wheel cover, complete with the dedicated colour scheme, and on the fuel tank. The individual unit number - from 001 to 300 - is laser-engraved on the top triple clamp.
The accompanying Special Parts Kit includes the transparent SCS clutch cover, dedicated motorcycle cover and a certificate of authenticity. Among the parts available as accessories is the Akrapovič titanium sports exhaust with dedicated ECU, which increases maximum power to 148 hp at 12,800 rpm, further emphasising the motorcycle's aggressive character.
Based on the renowned Dragster RR SCS, this unique motorcycle combines exciting performance with premium technical components, including the SCS automatic clutch developed in collaboration with Rekluse.
The Dragster RR SCS America combines extreme attention to detail with the technical base of a super sports bike. The compact and powerful in-line-three engine coupled with the SCS as mentioned above 3.0 clutch, which eliminates the need for the clutch lever, and the MotoGP-derived counter-rotating crankshaft and removable gearbox, are solutions that can only be found on MV Agusta models.
The electronic Ride By Wire twist grip includes counter-rotation, recently introduced to the range. It improves control and feeling mid-turn, making for a more progressive cruise control deactivation. The advanced six-axes inertial platform allows the rider to fully exploit the traction control, front-lift control and ABS with a cornering function.
The eight-level adjustable steering damper adds to the dynamics and safety of the Dragster RR SCS America, even at high speeds. The braking system is designed to ensure extremely powerful and safe deceleration thanks to the dual 320 mm front brake discs with four-piston Brembo radial callipers.
The 5.5" TFT display is straightforward to read in all light conditions and benefits from updated software.
The dashboard interfaces with the revolutionary MV Ride App, offering a variety of customisation and connectivity features. Lastly, the Mobisat anti-theft system with geolocation offers all Dragster RR SCS America's owners piece of mind, knowing that their Motorcycle Art will always be very well looked after.
The Dragster RR SCS America will be available exclusively at select MV Agusta dealerships across North America.
