Another friend of ours bike, this time it's the João Gomes' Cagiva Mito 125 with 7 gears.
This Cagiva Mito was already engine tuned, but smoothly tuned, here's a photograph of it's last appearance side-by-side with his father Manuel Luís Gomes' MV Augusta 750 F4 1+1: |
At that time, the Mito had a smooth engine tuning, with only 12 200 rpm in charge, having in account the reliability of this engine.
Therefore, the engine output predicted that time, was about 40 hp in a reliable dyno, the confirmed real velocity of 180 km/h in 7th gear (210 km/h in the instruments) with secondary transmission 14 - 41 |
|
The engine tuning was already made, now it was time to get the Mito 165 into LuFo's workshop to assemble the engine on the chassis.
I helped João, and took my Seat Ibiza and tow to take the Cagiva to LuFo's workshop, nice, the Mito was already rolling, even without the engine eheh :)
Here's a picture of the engine already assembled and tuned, with the VFORCE YZ 250 carbon reed, Yamaha TZR 50 flywheel & electric part adapted and the Keihin PWK 41mm using stock Cagiva Mito 125 intake manifold. |
