GasGas has revealed a comprehensive revamp of its MC 85 motocross bike, setting a new benchmark in the youth motocross segment.
Every component of the MC 85 has been meticulously refined, resulting in an entirely new generation of two-stroke dirt bikes designed to deliver a class-leading motocross experience.
This holistic makeover ensures the MC 85 retains its position as a dominant force in its category, empowering young riders to refine their motocross skills and cultivate a lasting love for the sport.
Let see upgrades of the 2024 GasGas’s – Suspension: The bike boasts a revamped suspension system with a new WP XACT shock featuring reduced travel for enhanced handling on rough terrain and a lower ride height. This is accompanied by a lightweight swingarm for increased agility.
Engine: The focus for the 85cc engine lies in improved low-to-mid range power. This is achieved through a combination of a new cylinder head, ignition system, exhaust, and spark plug.
To guarantee optimal performance and cooling, the carburetor has been returned, airflow has been improved, and new radiators have been installed. The engine’s placement within the frame has also been adjusted to achieve better weight distribution.
Aesthetics: While not extensive, the visual updates incorporate slimmer body panels that contribute to a more streamlined look. The graphics have been redesigned to match those of the adult GasGas models, all while retaining the brand’s signature red color scheme.
GasGas has revamped its MC 85 motocross bike for young riders, aiming to provide a competitive and user-friendly machine. The most notable upgrades include new, self-cleaning footpegs and an hour meter to simplify maintenance.
These features, along with the existing two wheel size options (17/14″ and 19/16″), make the MC 85 a great option for young riders looking to refine their skills.
While pricing hasn’t been officially announced, it’s expected to be slightly higher than the 2024 MSRP of $6,299 plus freight. The MC 85 is one of 17 motocross models offered by GasGas, catering to riders of all experience levels.
