Positioned in Cagiva's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2011 Cagiva Mito SP525 features a 124.6 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 12.1 HP (8.8 kW) at 9,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 11 Nm (8.1 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 97.1 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (9,000 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 SP525 measures 129 kg (284 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (10.66 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.
