Italjet Dragster LC50

Red

2003 '03'

8801km(5468 miles)

It was brought in October last year for me to commute to college on untill i brought a geared bike which i did in december and me being a typical lad i have been to lazy to put the dragster on ebay.

It had over 300 pounds worth of work done to it before i rode it

That included new front and back brake pads, new back tyre a second hand front arm, new battery,new spark plug, all new bulbs and starter motor wired up,

It only cost that little because my step dads mate is a bike mechanic and so i was able to get it done cheaply

it had a new stand on it 2 days after the mot wich cost me around 30 pound i think( check my ebay history i brought it brand new of ebay)

i have had to apply for a logbook and unfortuantley my mom filled in the form and she put on the application form that i brought it on the 5th of december for some strange reason.

The bike is unristricted but still has the standard exhaust, it is quick little bike im 6ft 3 and bout 131/2 stone and i used ot get just under 50mph and just over 50mph down a hill. I very rarely used to get to go flat out on it because it was all traffic that i used to go through. 

The bike was mot'ed 2 days before i was legal to ride it and the milage then was 7908 km so as u can see i did any hardly any milage on the bike before i got my new one.

The MOT runs out on 6th november 2008 and the tax runs out on 31st of october 2008.

The bike comes with a used but still working un-restricted doppler exhaust not fitted to the bike. It came with the bike but i just never got time to fit it because of the little time i got to rode it. it has surface rust but with a good scrubing and wire wooling it should come up million times better. that it self would of been over £120 to buy brand new

The engine is in perfect working order. It is the same engine as the first aprilia sr50 so there are loads of spares or tuining parts around for it. I believe that there is a malossi belt fitted as it has a malossi sticker on the belt case and my bike mechanic sed it had a race belt on there

I have just started it and took it for a small ride up and down my road(i have done this reguarly anyway to keep thimgs moving) and it started first time and it hasn't been started in a month. I rode it during the icy weather and minus tempratures and it would onli take a couple of goes with the electric start and if that didnt work then you could kick start it and it would go after a few kicks. but that is beacuase it was left in my backgarden every night if it was kept in a garage then i am sure that you wouldnt have any problems with it in the morning.

Bad Points

All mopeds have them there will be no getting away from that.

1. the battery has been relocated to under the seat and there was no battery cover so all i did was put a peice of cardboard over it but then one day it dissapeared but i have still put things in there and no problems have accored(so not realy a problem but i thought i had better tell you)

The the owner before last seems to have come off it on the one side, as a result there was some scratches on the side underneath the seat around the vent, I have chipsticked the scratches and they look much better but unfortuantley some of them are still visible and then some of them you have to look close to see them (i have pictured them below)

The Front Light on the one side sits a little lower and lose then the other side but this in no way affects the working of the light and it passed the mot this way so it can't be dangerous.

unfortunatley one day as i was riding home  the rear panel that covers the 2-stroke oil resivor blew off in high winds and i dont think i had pushed it down properly. i Brought a padded seat cover for it that are usualy on a 125 or a 180 dragster. also when the panel blew of it broke the hinge so you have to take out the back light cover and then unscrw it but it is a 2 minuete job to get to the 2-stroke oil. I have the orginale pannel but when i found it a car had run over it so it had split in half, I repaired it but you can still see the crack so i then brought the padded rear seat for it.

when i brought the bike it came with a key snapped in the under seat lock so all u need is something to slot in the keyhole so u can turn it but luckily you cant tell buy just lookin at the seat so it is still safe. 

last thing is that when i was going throught traffic a car decided to be a idiot and move over so i couldnt go through the traffic and i hit my wing mirror of the cars wing mirror and it has snapped the clips that hold it in position.

the most expensive price i have sen them for on ebay is £15 but i think you could get away with just superglueing it around the edge you can still ride it but the right hand wing mirror flips onto your arm and the throttle moves around a certian way and the controls move around also.
