Dear Mr Giovanni Castiglioni

I visited the Cagiva website and saw that Cagiva only makes two bikes, the Mito and Raptor. Since MV allready has the road bikes covered would it not be wise to expand into the dual sport market with the Cagiva brand ? After Husqvarna was ambushed by BMW things really took a turn for the worst  :mad: All we have nowadays are really old re hashed Japanese models and KTM clones. Please build us an new up to date light weight beautifull (Italian so that is a given) alternative. May I suggest a 250 -400cc class dual sport with a bigger brother in the 650 class. The 650 cc bike can have an adventurised sibling following in the foot steps of the Cagiva Elephant. Think back when the Cagiva reigned supreme winning the Dakar rally, the spirit and heritage is there ! I can gurantee you there are alot of people who will be interested in these models. I have even thought of names :

Cagiva Esplorare 250 / 450
Cagiva Doppio 650
Cagiva Avventura 650

Here is hoping for the best !
Ciao
