MV AGUSTA is pretty well known for crafting incredibly imposing machines, so in celebration of the opening of the Sloan Avenue store 3.0, MV Agusta commissioned a special one-off creation: the Dragster London Special.
The exact specifications of the bike remain a mystery, it’s not noted whether this is a beefed-up version of the Dragster or just a standard 798cc triple with added flair. That’s not to say there’s anything standard about a base-model Dragster, mind.
Key elements on the London Special are the prominent Union Jack shown on the side panels and centre-stage on the tank, with colour-coordinated frame, wheels, leather and alcantara seat with red stitching & London skyline print on the tank.

Visible monuments on the tank decal are the London Eye, Big Ben, Tower Bridge, the Shard and even the Gherkin! The pictures accompanying the release from the MV Agusta Facebook page were all taken in and around the streets of London, even one taken in the centre of the road (of what I’m guessing is Oxford Street) with two buses going past. You know what they say about London buses…
The MV Agusta Trepistoni engine is a Euro 5 approved triple, providing 140 bhp and plenty of thrills. If you’re interested in finding out about the Dragster, have a read of our latest article on the new 2021 Dragster and Brutale RR models.
Could this be the start of a few country-based colour schemes from MV Agusta?
Since dealerships are now opening back up in the UK, you could probably find this limited edition motorcycle in the Sloan Avenue 3.0 store, may pop down there and have a look myself. Wonder if they’ll let me ride it?
