2006 Malaguti SpiderMax GT500

A slight restyling was presented at EICMA in November 2007 and put on sale from December; on that occasion a second variant is also introduced, the RS 500 with a sportier characterization which joins the GT 500 model. The renewed Spidermax presents a new front shield with an unprecedented grille, new graphics for the instrument cluster and new 493 cm3 Euro 3 approved Piaggio Master engine which delivers 30.5 kW (41 HP) at 7250 rpm and 45 Nm of torque at 6000 rpm. The lateral chrome plating that characterizes the GT version is not present on the RS version. A weakened variant with 24.5 kW (33 HP) at 6500 rpm was offered for A1 license holders and drivable from 18 years of age. Production of the Spidermax RS 500 ends in April 2011 following the closure of the company.
