GRAPHICS
Looking just like the full-size motocross bikes, the MC 85 is finished with the same style graphics. Applied to the all-red, ergonomic bodywork using in-mould technology, they’ll never fade, peel, or scratch. Topping off the look is the full gripper seat cover (in red, of course!) that features a unique texture for maximum grip for when you’re either sat down and hard on the gas or up on the pegs and attacking the track.
FRAME
Knowing how good the frames are on the full-size GASGAS motocross bikes, the clever engineers set about transferring all the good stuff over to the new steel frame on the MC 85. “The end result is a huge step forward from the outgoing bike.”
Even the red frame protectors are new. Instead of a smooth finish, they now have a textured surface to help kids grip the bike better with their legs, which in turn helps to reduce fatigue.
MOTOR
There’s a lot going on with the MC 85 motor for 2025! There are plenty of important revisions.
Together, a new cylinder head, spark plug, and ignition boost power and torque in the low to mid-range while updated jetting settings and a new exhaust make sure the bike still sings when up high in the rev range. The motor is now positioned in the frame a little differently as it’s rotated backwards three degrees from the same mounting point at the swingarm. “That might not sound a lot, but this really helps distribute the weight of the motor to balance the bike out and creates a much more engaging ride.”
Finally, thanks in large part to the new components and a revised manufacturing process, the motor is 120g lighter than the old generation.
BRAKES
A redesigned rear brake master cylinder eliminates the old, minor problem of riders feeling it with their boot while riding. For 2025, that little annoyance is gone. Otherwise, as the brakes are unchanged from the old model besides the new rear caliper bracket that’s been brought in to fit the new swingarm.
