Overview

Introducing the 2023 GAS GAS MC 450F, a standout contender in the cross-motocross segment that promises to elevate your off-road adventures. With a price tag starting at US$ 10,199, this motorcycle is designed for those who demand performance and agility, whether on the track or in the wild. GAS GAS has crafted the MC 450F to blend cutting-edge technology with a robust heritage, making it an enticing option for both seasoned racers and weekend warriors looking to conquer the toughest trails. At the heart of the MC 450F lies a potent 449.9 ccm engine, boasting a bore and stroke of 95.0 x 63.4 mm. This powerhouse utilizes an advanced fuel injection system managed by the Keihin EMS for optimal performance. Riders will appreciate the smooth power delivery and the incredible torque that comes from this liquid-cooled engine, perfectly paired with a 5-speed gearbox. The wet, DDS multi-disc clutch with Brembo hydraulics ensures precise control and effortless gear changes, allowing riders to tackle steep climbs and sharp corners with confidence. With a weight of just 100 kg (220.5 pounds) and a ground clearance of 370 mm (14.6 inches), the MC 450F is nimble and responsive, making it a joy to navigate through challenging terrains. The MC 450F doesn't just excel in power; it also offers sophisticated features that enhance both performance and rider comfort. The central double-cradle-type frame, made from 25CrMo4 steel, provides durability while keeping weight to a minimum. The WP XACT-USD front suspension, with an impressive travel of 310 mm, and the WP XACT Monoshock rear suspension with 300 mm of travel, ensure that riders can absorb the toughest bumps with ease. Stopping power is equally impressive, with robust single disc brakes at both the front (260 mm) and rear (220 mm) that deliver reliable performance when you need it most. The electric starter adds convenience, while the striking red and white color options ensure you turn heads wherever you ride. **
