Goodness me these bikes are stunning. Trip back down memory lane with the sister bike to my very first motorbike
The 998S and the younger sister, who is surprisingly increasing in rarity, desirability and value with her Tamburini counterparts.
That Cagiva Mito... Oh my.... I lusted after one of these to such a degree that even now, they just give me the fizz... They have always been expensive and hard to get hold of though. I've had 2x RS125's, and possibly technically the better bike, but the Mito, just... Love..
Same story here @Phill748; I decided to scratch the itch in 2019 and its proudly been part of my stable ever since. In fact, I am still running it's engine in. Brought brand new, with 0 miles, from the once Cagiva (now KTM) official dealership in Athens, being left over old stock. In fact, the factory torque marks on the Marzocchi forks where the Brembo's are bolted on is visible in the picture. Insightful chaps to have registered, and then SORNed it immediately, in 2005 before the Euro 3 changes kicked in, otherwise it would have been condemned to a showpiece for all its life (can't register these things nowadays I am advised). It's so much fun to ride and, unlike the 998S, you don't need to worry about the temperature gauge all the time when driving in traffic.
Lucky git. Most of us wanted this bike as our learner 125 when we were kids but couldn’t even afford a C90
