wickedwoody Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 I like many of you on this site have seen photographs of the prototype side valve gas gas 4 stroke from the Milan bike show. However does anybody know when Gas Gas are going to put these into production and when the general public in the UK will be able to buy them?

jse Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 My guess is that it's designated as a 2009 model. The new 09' models are usually available around October 08' on this side of the pond. Adam is testing a new lightweight frame with lots of carbon fiber goodies on it and tons of space around the engine to make it really easy to get at. Currently it's got a two-stroke in it, but the mountings appear to almost exact between two to four stroke from what I can glean from the photos. Sure whould make the various models easier to manufacture , and most of the chassis parts would probably fit both engines. If they use that frame, I would imagine the four-stroke could weigh just about what the current two-stroke comes in at, considering the prototype four-stroke has that magic name, "Magnesium", cast into the engine cases. One way or another, it will be different and appears to be totally focused, engineering wise, on Trials only. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larstrialinfo Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 I think also in september/october. When they release the bike now, and the bike is ok, they will sell less 2-stroke bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
