Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2014 CCM GP450, a remarkable contender in the supermoto category that embodies the spirit of fun, versatility, and performance. Born from the legacy of Clews Competition Motorcycles, this bike takes the essence of off-road ruggedness and combines it with street-savvy agility, making it a perfect companion for thrill-seekers and urban adventurers alike. With its striking design available in a palette of White, Black, and Red, the GP450 is not just a motorcycle; it's a statement on two wheels, poised to carve through city streets or tackle winding trails with equal finesse. At the heart of the GP450 lies a powerful 449.5cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that churns out an impressive 40.23 HP at 7000 RPM. This engine is engineered to deliver a spirited performance, with a robust torque of 42.80 Nm peaking at 6500 RPM, ensuring that every twist of the throttle translates into exhilarating acceleration. The bike's top speed of 145 km/h (90.1 mph) reveals its sporty nature, while its efficient fuel consumption of 4.50 liters per 100 km keeps it economical for everyday use. The sophisticated fuel injection system paired with electronic ignition ensures a smooth power delivery, making the GP450 a joy to ride whether you’re navigating urban traffic or hitting the open road. The GP450’s chassis and suspension are designed to enhance both comfort and control. With a lightweight 6082 T6 forged aluminum frame, the bike weighs in at a mere 130 kg (286.6 pounds), allowing for nimble handling and easy maneuverability. The front suspension features 47mm upside-down forks with adjustable damping, providing 245mm of travel to absorb bumps and imperfections in the road. At the rear, the cast aluminum swingarm complements the overall setup, with adjustable preload and an impressive 250mm of travel. Coupled with powerful braking systems—320mm front and 240mm rear discs—this motorcycle offers the responsiveness and stopping power necessary for spirited rides. **
Pros
- Lightweight and Agile: The low weight and well-balanced frame make the GP450 incredibly nimble, perfect for both city commuting and twisty backroads.
