Italjet and Givi just teamed up to give Dragster owners somewhere to put their stuff. The new rack and luggage setup covers the whole Dragster lineup, from the wild 700 Twin down to the smaller 459 and 300, so nobody gets left out.
The Dragster has always been a weird little mashup of scooter and motorcycle, which is part of why people love it so much. Riders get that fun, flickable scooter feel but with real motorcycle presence. Until now though, hauling gear on one meant strapping a bag to the seat and hoping for the best.
With this new Givi collaboration, owners finally get a proper mounting option. And according to the person who posted about it, the added luggage does not mess with the bike’s shape the way it might on other models. The comparison being used is insect wing cases, tucked in tight when not needed, then flipping open when it is time to carry something.
Whether that visual works for everyone is up for debate, but the practical upside is clear. More storage, zero drama, and it fits across the entire Dragster range. For a bike built around doing its own thing, this feels like a fitting way to make it a bit more useful without losing what makes it fun.
Owners of the Dragster 700 Twin, 459, and 300 can now grab a new rack and luggage setup from a fresh partnership between Italjet and Givi. The gear fits the whole lineup, so no model misses out on the upgrade.
The Dragster has built a reputation as a mashup of scooter and motorcycle, giving riders a nimble, fun ride with a bit more presence than a typical scooter. One tradeoff though, there has never been a clean way to carry gear beyond strapping something to the seat.
That changes now. The new luggage setup adds real storage without messing with the bike’s look, something that can be a problem on other models when racks and cases get bolted on. The shape has been compared to insect wing cases, folded in tight when empty and opening up when loaded, keeping the silhouette intact either way.
It is a simple fix for a common complaint, giving Dragster riders a practical way to pack their stuff while keeping the bike’s attitude in place. With the setup covering the full range, from the 700 Twin to the smaller 459 and 300, riders across the lineup can add the option without hunting for a model specific fix.
My two cents…
The Dragster’s always been that scooter cosplaying as a motorcycle thing, equal parts nimble and swaggery. Previously, hauling gear meant bungee cords and prayer. Not anymore. The new cases fold in like beetle wings, apparently, popping out only when loaded so the bike keeps its silhouette. Think less “soccer mom roof box,” more “Transformer with a backpack.” Practical upgrade, zero identity crisis. Dragster stays weird, just better organized about it.
