Advantages: Looks great, Nice sound, Performance, (over 7,000rpm anyway!)

Disadvantages: Crap tickover, Hard to get into neutral first time, No fuel gauge

I brought my 2001 Cagiva Mito 125 in stunning bright yellow 3 months ago for £1450 from a dealer which was a great deal. It is in very good condition with only a few small marks that can be expected from a 4 year old learner bike. The bike still has the standard can but is fully derestricted and I've had nearly 100 from it - am tempted to get an arrow exhaust as it would do near 120 so ive been told. Also would like to get a tinted windshield as the standard one goes a manky colour and tinted ones look great but are pricey! I've been really pleased with the bike so far and haven't had any problems with it fingers crossed! Its a very nice bike (the best 125 I my opinion, the RS125 is very good but it can’t match the Mito) the only complaints I've had are that its hard to get into neutral first time and its needs to be revved up when cold before it can idle but then after a ride the tick over is quite high - very annoying. Its not too bad on fuel although it doesn't have a reserve or a fuel gauge - there is a low fuel warning light but comes on and off and is pretty useless. I've managed about 260km from a tank and there was still some petrol left. The petrol you use does affect the performance of these bikes (like any 2-stroke) Shell Optimax is the by far the best - even standard Shell/BP petrol doesn't perform that well. The only over small problem is that the seating position can become uncomfortable on longer journey's. The positive things are its looks, the great performance especially over 7,000rpm it goes crazy!, it makes a good sound for a 2-stroke even with the standard can and has a useful amount of room under the rear seat which is always handy. People always say Italian bikes are unreliable but from my experience if you look after a 2-stroke bike, use it regularly and use the best petrol and oil it should be a trouble free fun experience! I’ve done nearly 3,000 miles in 3 months with no problems!
