2001 Cagiva Mito 125 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Cagiva's sport motorcycle platform, the 2001 Cagiva Mito 125 features a 124.6 cc (7.6 cu in) single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 14.1 HP (10.3 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 12 Nm (8.9 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 113.2 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 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 0.11 HP/kg (9.15 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, combined with a 1,375 mm (54.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 127 km/h (79 mph).

Within MotoLibrary's Cagiva archive, this model family spans 12 indexed model years from 1998 to 2009, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
