Cagiva Planet

The Cagiva Planet is a great bike, looks wise and performance!

To just clear up the mix-ups in here... The Cagiva Planet uses the EXACT same engine as the Cagiva Mito, it is not de-tuned, as they both use the 73037 cylinder with the same porting. (Newer mito's)

I have reached 85mph on my de-restricted Planet (In gear five) and it had more to go. The only way that a Planet is made slower than a Mito is in the sprocket sizes, the planet's sprockets are setup for better acceleration whereas the mito is setup for top end.

They do however have different powervalve boxes, of which the Mito one opens earlier giving a different powerband.

This bike was the love of my life. The most beautiful machine in the world (aside from a real monster). You get respect from everyone, cars, other 2 stroke riders and even the ducati snobs will salute you as you ride past.The Cagiva Planet handles brilliantly, has excellent brakes and suspension, the lights are top notch. It has a nice wide back tyre and the exhaust manages to convert the tinny sound of a 2 stroke into an acceptable warble of something much more powerful.

i just bought this bike and i love it it handles like a dream and goes like a rocket looks like a big bike feels like a big bike can leap from lighs and most other road traffic accllerates well. It hates the cold takes ages to warm up but then again it is still after all a two stroke.

id say the Cagiva Planet is a great first bike if you feel confident if not something a bit smaller may be in order but id buy and keep most certainly.

I have had a 1999 Cagiva Planet for the last 14 months, in that time due to the last owner not looking after her too well, I have had to spend a lot of time tweaking, and replacing (clutch, sprockets, chain and exhaust).

Now with a race can, race plug and soon race carb reeds, I'll be the blur in the distance!

I love this bike, I should have got one sooner... she flies!

THe Cagiva Planet handles like a much bigger bike, it feels like a bigger bike, and is the perfect bike to start on. I had three bikes before the planet, just to get about, but this was the machine that made me fall in love with riding! I now have a 919cc hornet (and have ridden a range of other big bikes). Although I have not had a Cagiva planet for quite some time, I still have fond memories, of that brilliant little bike. For me that was where my obsession all began.

I have a 2001 Cagiva Planet. I don't know if they made some slight improvements that year but it runs smooth as silk. I'm keeping it 'till my cold dead hands are pealed from the grips (and with the speed it goes, that may be sooner than I think). I LOVE MY BIKE!

The Cagiva Planet is a great little bike I had a 94 model mito it was best handling, fastest, best looking 125 I've had or seen for that matter.

Only thing I was worried about the engine going pop but it never did till the day I sold it, a guy who bought it seized it up on his way home.

I bought this bike 2nd hand in Belgium (I live here) for about 1600 ' . We needed to replace the piston rings (cegments?), I also removed the basic restriction in the exhaust.

After this I tested my bike's speed, I was in 5th gear at 140km/h and he had many more to go further in 6th, so for me personal it's an awsome 125cc bike.

Also very good brakes and good movement with the bike. good in corners and enough power for driving in the city.

Good bike to start with, not to expensive, still enough power and good movement, fast and good brakes. I love the bike from the moment I saw hem, still loving the looks and it still drives well.

The Cagiva Planet is fast and handles very well and it looks cool. Everyone say's it looks like a big bike. It has great breaks and is easy to pull a stoppy. Wheelies are a bit harder but the Planet does them and does burnouts too. Its very easy to ride and filter through traffic and my top speed was 155kph (about 95mph). All in all... probably the best 125 out there but does not like the cold very much.

Rides like a dream lots of power for a 125 real eye turner people cant help but look. Good looking mint brakes mint shocks lots of shape mint petrol cap. Cheap to run easy to work on.
