Celebrating fifty years of red, white, and blue Agusta goodness, this new variant is limited to 300 units. Each piece of pretty sports the new livery, plus a hand-stitched ‘America Special Edition’ script on the saddle, a host of componentry via a Special Parts Kit (SPK), an aerodynamic carbon-fiber wheel cover, and a laser-engraved serial number on the top triple clamp.

The SPK, by the way, includes a transparent clutch cover for the iconic SCS automatic clutch (developed with Rekluse), as well as the welcome addition of an Akrapovič titanium sports exhaust + dedicated ECU.

All that cheddar means the Dragster RR SCS America is capable of a very nice 148hp @ 12,800rpm – up a full 8 ponies from the Dragster RR SCS’s 140hp @ 11,000rpm (via MV Agusta’s press release on Roadracing World).

Very nice.
