With its sleek, aerodynamic design and iconic Cagiva styling, this bike not only turns heads but also offers a thrilling ride that is both accessible and exhilarating. At the heart of the Mito 125 lies a nimble 124.63 ccm single-cylinder, two-stroke engine, renowned for its peppy performance and spirited acceleration.

The bike’s dimensions, including a seat height of 760 mm, make it accessible for riders of various sizes, adding to its appeal as a great entry-level sportbike. Another standout feature is its electric starter, which adds convenience and modernity to this classic machine. With a fuel capacity of 14 liters, riders can enjoy extended journeys without frequent stops, making the Mito 125 not just a track-ready bike but also a capable companion for weekend rides. **
