The name Cagiva comes from CAstiglioni GIovanni VArese.
Cagiva is an Italian conglomerate with many varied interests. At one point
they owned a basketball team, made locks for luggage, and even chewing
gum at one time. Apparently, the brothers Claudio and Gianfranco
Castiglioni who run Cagiva were big fans of motorcycles so in 1978 they
bought the
Aermacchi AMF Harley-Davidson factory
in Italy, and also Ducati.
At that time there was still a strong relationship with Harley-Davidson.
In 1986 they went on to purchase Husqvarna
Motorcycles.
In 1984 Italian rider Corrado Maddii was going to win the Motocross
125cc Championship but broke his leg in practice at the last event.
This would have been really huge as Suzuki had won this title every year
that it was in existence. All Maddii had to do was get a single point
to win. Cagiva took the title in 1985, 1986, and 1987. (Another correspondent
informs us that they missed out in 87 & 88 by just a few points)
Between 1991 and 1997 Cagiva partnered with CZ in the production of
a range of cheaper 125 to 200cc 2- and 4-stroke motorcycles, but the bikes
were not well received and the project was not a success.
In 1995 Cagiva entered a joint venture with Yanmar Marine.
Cagiva have also been associated with Ducati and MV Agusta.
Thanks to JasonACool, Niek Dijkman and Michael James for much of the
above.

subject: Cagva mito evolution125
Email: jackcuretono2.co.uk message: I have been given your web address to make enquiries regarding
a airbox restrictor which I have been told will give my bike a better performance.
There is also something under the tank and I am sorry I do not know what
it is, with two cables going to it. I have been told that when you rev
the bike this round thing with the cables attached should swivel back and
forth. It does not turn by itself. when I put a 8mm ring spanner on it
and turn it anti clockwise it increases my speed by a full 25mph but the
bottom end performance has sufferred greatly. could you give me a price
for the restrictor kit please and also advise me if it is easily fitted
by myself. Also this round thing with the cables attached could you please
give me any advise if it can be repaired or would I need to buy a new one
and if so what would it cost please. I am sorry I cannot be more specific
on this round thing but if it helps the two cables appear to work on the
same basis as a throttle twist grip with on and return. It also has a spring
behind it. It has a dome shaped object at the side of it which I suspect
(I could be wrong) is a motor. I hope this helps you, Lastly do you stock
a brake light switch and return spring for the rear brake please. Thank
you.

its a cagiva roadster 1994 125cc
i think the problem is that it needs an oil change and we were told
it was a four stroke but i think its a two stroke the spark plug is onto
of the engine
Images of Cagiva Roadsters indicate to me that
it's probably a twostroke. If the exhaust on yours exits from the barrel,
then it's a twostroke. If it exits from the head, it's a fourstroke. If
it is a fourstroke, it will have removable covers on the head to allow
access to the tappets. Ed.

the Italian rider Corrado Maddii who broke his leg. The next year Davey
Strijbos won the title and teh year after Pekka won it for them again.
Michele Rinaldi went on to be Italy's first World MX champion not Maddii.
Cagiva would also have been the first company to win the WC in their first

crap chewed out of it. Apparently a new one will set me back £445.00
plus VAT; about £520 I think. And that doesn't include putting the
new one in! Any help with info on a source that doesn't add the owners
