Kinetic makes (a little) progress (finally)

Indian business website Sify reports Kinetic Motors is seeking $15 million from investors to fund its production and development of Italjet scooters. It’s about time, the deal was announced two years ago. The first Kinetic Italjet, the 170cc Millenium (the name was already dated when Italjet introduced it in 2000), is due later this month, with the Jet Set (c. 2001) to follow in June. One wonders when they’ll get around to re-introducing the more-than-a-decade-old Velocifero, let alone the Dragster.
