Overview

Introducing the 2010 GAS GAS MC 65 Cross Country, a spirited competitor in the cross-motocross category that has captured the hearts of young riders and racing enthusiasts alike. With its Spanish roots and a focus on performance, the MC 65 offers an exhilarating entry point into the world of serious off-road racing. Designed for those eager to tackle challenging terrains, this lightweight machine is tailored to provide an unmatched combination of agility, power, and control, making it a favorite among budding motocross stars and weekend warriors alike. At the heart of the MC 65 is a robust single-cylinder, two-stroke engine with a displacement of 65.00 ccm (3.97 cubic inches). This engine is engineered for spirited performance, delivering a lively powerband that thrives in a variety of off-road conditions. With a bore and stroke measuring 45.0 x 40.8 mm, the bike accelerates smoothly and responds intuitively to the rider’s commands. The 6-speed gearbox ensures that power is always accessible, allowing for seamless transitions between tight corners and open straights. Coupled with liquid cooling and a well-tuned carburettor, the MC 65 maintains optimal performance even during intense ride sessions, ensuring that young riders can push their limits with confidence. The MC 65 is not just about power; it’s about precision and control. The chassis features a 35 mm upside-down front fork with an impressive 250 mm travel, offering superior handling and stability over rough terrains. At the rear, the one-piece aluminum swingarm with a progressive shock absorber provides an additional 210 mm of travel, allowing for a smooth ride even on the bumpiest trails. The braking system, equipped with 180 mm single discs at both the front and rear, ensures reliable stopping power, giving riders the confidence to navigate tight turns and steep descents. With a seat height of 945 mm (37.2 inches), this bike is designed for young riders who want to feel in control, while the lightweight design—tipping the scales at just 55.0 kg (121.3 pounds)—enhances maneuverability, making it an ideal companion for aspiring racers. **

Pros

  • Powerful Engine: The 65cc two-stroke engine delivers an exhilarating performance, perfect for young riders looking to develop their skills.
  • Lightweight Design: Weighing only 55 kg, the MC 65 is incredibly manageable, allowing for quick handling and maneuverability on the track.
