What is? The Cagiva Mito! it's "all grown up" and sporting a 500cc Husky single. I agree with the writer of the article below that the Mito should be redesigned to resemble a modern MV rather than a Ducati 916.

I think it's about getting into the US market which they can't do with the current 125 2-stroke. At 133kg and 60hp, it'll be one hell of a ride, and harkens back to the days of the Bimota BB1 and Ducati Supermono.
