Unveiling the All-New 2025 GASGAS MC 85
The GASGAS MC 85 has undergone a significant refresh for the 2025 model year, aimed at boosting low-mid–range torque while introducing an all-new frame and WP XACT shock.
Arrival in Australia
You’ll find the 2025 GASGAS MC 85 in Australian dealerships from August.
Target Audience
Recommended for youngsters aged between 11 and 15 years old, the new generation model has been developed with serious input from a global team of young test riders.
Wheel Options
As before, there are two options to choose from with the MC 85:
- One with 17”/14” wheels for smaller riders.
- Another with 19”/16” wheels for those kids who grow just that little bit quicker!
Key Upgrades and Features
All-New Frame
An all-new frame is claimed to offer improved stability and create a lighter feel through the turns. Frame protectors keep it looking fresh, too.
New WP XACT Shock
A new mounting point on the frame and slight reduction in travel create a more balanced and planted feel for improved traction and control.
Updated Motor
The engine development focus was on squeezing out more low to mid-range power and boosting torque. Changes include:
- A new cylinder head
- Ignition
- Exhaust
- Spark plug
- Settings inside the KEIHIN carburetor
- Revised airbox for increased airflow.
Enhanced Cooling System
New radiators, made by PANKL, keep the motor running cool.
Repositioned Motor
The motor is repositioned in the frame to help balance the bike out even more.
Sleeker Bodywork
The side panels on the new all-red bodywork are now even slimmer than before, allowing kids to move around much more easily.
New Shift Drum
Finished with a new coating for strength and smoother shifting.
Lighter Swingarm
Lighter in weight by 300g and positioned a little more level than before, thanks to the shorter shock and new frame. This leads to a lower back end for easier movement on the bike.
Redesigned Footpegs
Redesigned to prevent mud from building up for total control in all conditions.
Redesigned Airbox
With improved airflow for maximum performance.
Hour Meter
Records time spent on the bike to help you keep on top of routine servicing.
Conclusion
The 2025 GASGAS MC 85 is poised to offer young riders an exceptional experience with its new frame, WP XACT shock, and a host of other upgrades aimed at enhancing performance, control, and comfort. Available from August in Australian dealerships, this revamped model is ready to hit the tracks with unmatched style and power.
