Overview

Introducing the 2009 GAS GAS EC 450 FSR, a prominent contender in the enduro-offroad motorcycle scene. Renowned for its rugged design and exceptional performance, this bike is tailored for serious off-road enthusiasts who seek both adventure and agility in challenging terrains. With a striking color palette of red and white, the EC 450 FSR not only stands out visually but also promises to deliver an exhilarating riding experience that is characterized by its impressive engineering and innovative technology. At the heart of the EC 450 FSR lies a powerful 449cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that is designed for optimal performance in demanding environments. With a bore and stroke of 97.0 x 60.8 mm, this bike packs a punch, offering robust torque and responsive acceleration that make navigating through trails or tackling steep inclines a breeze. The electronic fuel injection system (battery-less EFI) ensures reliable fuel delivery and efficient combustion, while the liquid cooling system maintains optimal temperatures during extended rides. Coupled with a 6-speed gearbox, the EC 450 FSR allows riders to seamlessly shift through gears, maximizing control and adaptability on diverse surfaces. The chassis of the EC 450 FSR is a testament to GAS GAS's commitment to quality and performance. Built with a Deltabox frame constructed from Cromoly D tubes, this motorcycle boasts both strength and lightweight agility, tipping the scales at just 118 kg (260.1 lbs). The 45 mm upside-down Marzocchi front fork provides 290 mm (11.4 inches) of front travel, absorbing shocks from rugged terrain with ease, while the one-piece aluminum swing arm and Sachs rear shock deliver a smooth, progressive response to obstacles. The dual braking system, featuring a 260 mm front disc and a 220 mm rear disc, ensures confident stopping power, even in the most challenging conditions. **

Pros

  • Powerful Engine: The 449cc engine offers strong acceleration and torque, perfect for tackling various off-road challenges.
