Motorcycle specifications MV-Agusta800 Dragster RC SCS 2025 Italy's rage

Over the years, the RC series, for Reparto Corse, has become an institution in the MV-Agusta range. The original F4 was the first to fall in love with it, becoming the muse of Superbikes, while other models have taken advantage of the opportunity to flatter their sporting side.

As usual, the Dragster 800 RC takes on the colors of the racing department: the dress is back in Italian colors, enraged by the presence of an SC Project muffler thanks to the racing kit. The welding work on the intermediate tube is simply superb, worthy of the best creations of the 2-stroke era.
Between the transalpine colors and the scent of battle, MV-Agusta no longer shows the 37 that symbolizes the brand - its number of world championship titles. A number that hasn't changed since 1974.

This devil is equipped with the SCS clutch - the "Smart Clutch System". A mechanism supplied by the Rekluse company to approximate the comfort of a semi-automatic gearbox. Basically, it combines a centrifugal clutch with electronic management to eliminate the need to use the clutch lever. The result is faster gearshifts, quicker starts and an extra weight of just 36 grams.
Not to be confused with an automatic or robotized gearbox. Shifting gears doesn't happen by itself; you still have to use the boot and selector.

a few special parts, a racing decor and we're in the mood. This bubbling special series is based on the 800 Dragster RR SCS. In other words, the meanest version of the Dragster, with a 3-cylinder engine spitting out 140 hp. These guys don't want to sit back and wait for their buddies. The racing kit supplied with the bike, once fitted, saves 8 kilos and boosts power by 10 hp. At its best, it boasts an impressive 150 horsepower for 160 kilos!
The package includes a matching exhaust system, dedicated ECU, and machined aluminum footrests and control levers,

to mark this special series, the manufacturer has added a few carbon parts, such as the front and rear mudguard supports, and the trim pieces at the base of the fuel tank. Too bad, though, that the superb spoked wheels of the standard version have been replaced by forged rims. With good reason: weight savings and less inertia when changing angles. The TiN-treated Marzocchi fork is fully adjustable, as is the Sachs shock absorber, while the seat is a bi-texture saddle combining leather and stitching.

like the RR, the Dragster 800 RC is loaded with electronics, including MVICS 2.1 management. It includes Ride-By-Wire, 8-level traction control, 4 riding modes working with engine management, traction control, throttle sensitivity, engine braking, torque curve, etc... Three are pre-programmed according to specific profiles (Sport, Normal, Rain) and one is completely user-configurable. The Quickshifter EAS 3.0 allows you to upshift and downshift without cutting off acceleration. The machine is also equipped with cruise control, inertial navigation system, adaptive cornering light, ABS cornering, TFT display with GPS and Bluetooth, Mobisat satellite tracker and Launch Control. The sporty chassis is still based on a tubular steel trellis frame connected to attractive aluminum plates (optimized for rigidity), Brembo radial 4-piston brakes around 320 mm discs, a planed rear end and a large 200 m rear tire.

mV-Agusta has ennobled three RC models, including this 800 Dragster RR SCS. To underline the model's exclusivity, it will be produced in a limited number of units - 300, certified on the fork crown and by a certificate of authenticity. But with an MV, who cares - it's the passion that speaks.
