Cagiva Mito gets Honda CRF450X engine revamp

This Cagiva Mito has been given a new lease of life thanks to a Honda CRF450X enduro four-stroke engine and 14 months of work by owner John Zainer.

Don’t be fooled by the near standard looks of the bike, this is a comprehensive engineering makeover that has taken a 30bhp two-stroke Cagiva Mito and replaced the motor with a 45bhp single-cylinder motor from a CRF450X with a total weight of 129kg.

You can read the full test in next week’s MCN out on Wednesday, January 12.
