Bike Test: 2021 GASGAS MC 125 Review

  • Before you start typing “It’s a red KTM!!!” take a breath, and read the next few sentences. Yes, the MC 125 is very similar to the KTM 125 SX, but there are some parts that are unique to the GASGAS that do give the bike it’s own flavor on the track, and are also aimed at saving you a few bucks at the dealership. The forged triple clamp and “mellower” suspension settings offer more comfort for the average motocross rider. Plus, the swing arm is from the Husqvarna, and the subframe is the aluminum KTM piece. Performance wise, the engine and frame are shared with the orange bike and feel the same on the track. Check out what Ping thinks of this two-stroke screamer after our first ride at Glen Helen Raceway.

    Great review Ping...everyone should own a 2-stroke 125/150. Whether you're racing in the 2-stroke championships or just dick-n around out on some trails they're a must have imo.

    Do you think converting this bike to a woods bike would be pretty simple? I'm really liking the look of this bike! Also is the suspension really alot more simple to adjust on wp air forks?

    • @aray493
      @aray493 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know it's late, but the wp air forks are very versatile. I ride a mix of mx and woods (2020 150sx) and I can change the suspension setup extremely easy depending on what I'm riding that weekend. I prefer my forks super soft in woods (like xr250 soft) and I can easily replicate that with them. Then if I run mx I can stiffen them up to handle hard landings quickly. I didn't like them at first but you really have to play with what feels good, rather than what the manual says. Recommend psi is like 150 ish if I remember correctly, I'm running like 110 on an mx track
