Those twin cans look so weedy.

Better to just get a RS250 and be done with it.

Putting a 350 power-valve motor in a Mito is a common thing on the continent, where Mitos are easier and cheaper to source. Apparently they go very well and have handling to match....look fantastic as well.

Sweet.

I think PB put a CR450 in a Mito frame a while back, that would be a little bit of fun to ride also.

However looking at that one I would like to know if the rest of the plastic fits as thats what makes a Mito. And a single disc on something like that, I wonder if a set of 916 (et al) forks fit?

Hmmmm... which would I take - a super tuned 'Prilla motor or the Yam one which won't break as much?

I had a RS125 that i like to ride properly. I thought it was best to let the top end go rather than rebuild it before as I had a 3rd party warentee that liked to pay for the rebuilds!! hehe. So i blew it up 3 times and had free rebuilds, this was in 2 years, cost me about ?300 in the cost of the 3rd party warentee over the 2 years. saved a packet!

When I finish being a student im going to get a rs250 or somthing similar and do the same thing, ride it till it dies and get free rebuilds!!
