Just noticed it reads " goes off the clock at 200kph", so I guess it does break a tonne! Can only imagine the acceleration though! YES PLEASE!!!

I bet that thing is unreal to ride, the amount of power it'll put down as soon as the throttle is pinned back! Drooling

I'm not a huge fan of the mito, but that makes it just far more interesting! Shocked

Got to agree, I'd like to get my hands on this one - It's just the size which is probably too small for me...bound to make the RS125 bikers somewhat suprised (and gutted).

Am I missing something here? It puts out 50BHP... Hardly earth shattering. It is nice and light which will help

50bhp in a bike which still looks like a 14.6bhp 125. Even detristricted it'd be about 25.

Suspect it has no real power band. Just nice smooth power. The engine is a motocross engine, and they can get that much power from a 250. The 500s were in a fairly low state of tune as any extra top end would pretty much be wasted.

Include the riders weight and the power to weight ratio would probably be about the same as an early 90s FZR600.

Still fancy it though.

All the best

Also, unless he's lightened it a fair bit, I suspect weight is more around 130kg dry or so.

My plan is still to put a 500cc mx engine in a GP250 chassis and road register it.

(When I get to that magical land of time and money Smile )

if you read the whole lot youll see that he mentions the fact that it has an awsome powerband and that he has done a lot to reduce the weight as hes thrown a lot of the old mito stuff out, and hes said it weighs around 100kg, i know he could be bullshitting but mito are very light as it is.

It will weigh more than 100kg, there is no way it weighs that, how can you make a bike weigh 30kg less by putting a bigger engine in, also how can you make a bike weigh 30kg less buy just using lighter materials............

30kg is a lot of weight to have to lose, id give it 130kg minimum.

Still would no doubt eat all the boys on their rs's nsr's and mito's, if only it was still registered as a 125, id love to buy that and see the look on my mates face when it eats his 35bhp tuned rs.

Hi

He also says it is "a pussycat to tickle along on the massive torque at low down revs". These engines are not designed for top end power as they have enough for off road use and having it fairly flexable is more use than a bit more top end power.

Weight wise Cagiva claim 121 for a stock early Mito. Assume that this one having the USD forks is slightly heavier.

However the Mito engine is a heavy lump. It would not surprise me if the KX engine is half the weight of the original 125 engine. 100 might be possible.

All the best

Keith

Yes but he doesn't actually say it weights 100 kg ts50x0, to quote him he says "At a guess I'd say it weighs in around 100 kilos"

Obviously hes never weighed it before but hes just trying to point out that its going to lighter than some other bikes.

It could put that through to the road very easily. 50BHp is not a huge amount when compared to the 150BHp my ZZR makes at the back wheel, or the 180BHp that some of the new breed of sports bikes produce.

Yeah but 500cc 2 stroke crossers arent built for power, there built for torque, plus power to weight ratio come in here too, how much does your zzr weigh 200kg? that mito i doubt weighs over 100kg and probably has the torque of a 1litre v twin.

Shocked

500cc 2 stroke Razz

My speedfight is 98kg and the mito isnt that much heavier so it is probably 100 - 120kg.

But a 2 stroke 500cc Cool That must rocket! It would smoke any 600 right?

I bet it sounds better than a mito 125 Laughing

[edit] its a shame its not still registered a 125 Wink [/edit]

A NS500 weighs around 110kg and makes 150hp. Ok, that was a full on GP bike, but tyre are way better than that in a straight line.

Apart from the really crappy/long life ones, tyres only start to slide when you're getting the power on while leant over.

Also, doubt it would 'smoke' a 600. It still has half the power, as well as two thirds the weight. Now you can tune them up to get a tad over 100hp I believe, then it would start to get interesting Smile.

In a straight line it would definitely lose out... the 600s front wheel will be skimming the road 'till about 50-60. The 500 will have less weight to keep the nose down (though less weight to accelerate as well) and will have to change gear way sooner.
