1998 Cagiva Mito 125 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Cagiva for the sport motorcycle segment, the 1998 Cagiva Mito 125 features a 124.6 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 15 HP (10.9 kW) at 10,400 rpm while maximum torque reaches 12.5 Nm (9.2 lb-ft) at 7,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 7-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 120.4 HP per liter and a 2,650 rpm working window between peak torque (7,750 rpm) and peak power (10,400 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

On the scales, the Mito 125 measures 129 kg (284 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.6 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 760 mm (29.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops.
