Overview[edit | edit source]
Cagiva Mito 125 Lucky Explorer
In 1995 the bike was restyled by Massimo Tamburini with similar lines to the
then new Ducati 916, a design he also penned. The similarity is
particularly visible in the front and rear fairings.
Basically a racing 125cc bike for the road, the Mito packages gorgeous,
big-bike styling, with a high-specification sportsbike chassis and engine. Its
single-cylinder two-stroke engine produces around 22kW (30bhp) - a typical
output for this class, but still impressive in bhp per litre terms at 179kW
(240bhp) per litre. The chassis is also typical, if well-appointed. A twin-spar
aluminum frame is more than stiff enough for the Mito's power, and the
upside-down front forks and rear monoshock are well-damped, if a little soft for
heavier riders. The gull-wing-type swingarm is copied from GP bikes, and allows
clearance for the large expansion chamber exhaust.
