With GAS GAS's rich history in off-road competition, the MC 125 embodies the brand's commitment to performance, making it a sought-after choice for aspiring motocross champions and seasoned riders alike. Its vibrant red and grey aesthetics not only catch the eye but also signify the adrenaline-packed experience that awaits. At the heart of the MC 125 Cross lies a potent 124cc single-cylinder, two-stroke engine, delivering a thrilling combination of power and responsiveness. With a bore and stroke of 45.0 x 40.8 mm, this engine is optimized for high-revving performance, allowing riders to unleash their full potential on the track.

The MC 125 Cross showcases advanced engineering and thoughtful design, featuring a Deltabox frame constructed from cromoly rectangular tubing, which enhances stability while keeping the bike lightweight at just 92 kg (202.8 pounds). The front suspension boasts a robust 45 mm upside-down fork with 295 mm of travel, providing excellent shock absorption and responsiveness over rough terrain. At the rear, a progressive, one-piece aluminum swing arm further contributes to the bike's impressive handling dynamics. With a fuel capacity of 9.5 liters (2.51 gallons), riders can push their limits without the constant worry of running low on fuel during those exhilarating sessions. **
