Introducing the 2009 Gilera GP800, a striking blend of power and practicality that redefines the scooter segment. Positioned as a premium offering in the market, the GP800 stands out not only for its robust design but also for its impressive engineering. With a bold aesthetic that commands attention, this scooter is designed for those who appreciate the thrill of riding without compromising on everyday usability. Whether navigating city streets or embarking on longer journeys, the GP800 promises a unique riding experience that caters to both style and substance. At the heart of the GP800 lies its formidable 839.3cc V2, four-stroke engine, delivering an exhilarating 65.5 horsepower at 7,250 RPM and a torque of 76.4 Nm at 5,750 RPM.

The double-cradle framework of high-tensile steel tubing provides a solid foundation, while the hydraulic telescopic front fork and adjustable rear monoshock suspension ensure a smooth ride over varied terrains. Safety is paramount, with double disc brakes both front and rear that deliver confident stopping power. Additionally, the electronic ignition system includes an immobilizer and a tilt sensor that locks out the injection pump under extreme conditions, offering peace of mind for riders. With a generous fuel capacity of 18.5 liters, you can enjoy long rides without frequent stops. **
