    I think it's probably a good thing for both Husky and MV-A/Cagiva
    however I'm upset to hear it at a personal level - it means the Mito
    500 is now dead :-( Explains why I've heard no more about it

    Well you could always "roll your own" ;-)

    Buy a mito, buy a dirt bike single cylinder 5 or 600 engine of a
    vintage newer than the Mito. Persuade Hammo to install it. Take it to
    engineer and get it approved. Register and ride away :)

    (which is probably what I'll look at doing, excepting the Hammo bit)
