Mud 'n' Tar's Comments:

2009 will see a name change for the 450 / 515 from FSR to EC (Enduro Cross) to bring it in line with the two stroke models. Since the birth of their four strokes back in 2002, Gas Gas has continued its development that will see it to continue as a front runner in this highly contested category. For 2008 Gas Gas released a new battery-less fuel injection and in 2009 this has seen a mapping modification that will help deliver better throttle response, improved hot and cold starting and give smoother low rpm running.

The cylinder head on the EC450 has had the magic touch of the R & D department that will see a new combustion chamber design an increase in squish volume and an increase in air flow that will give an 8% power hike. A new head gasket has been developed that is now made of Laminar with a stainless steel internal layer for an increased resistance to high temperature as well as a reinforced cylinder. Additional fly wheel inertia has also been added to the flywheel to improve low speed traction.

Frame and suspension:

A completely new Sachs front fork has been developed in conjunction with Gas Gas R&D that will see the new 48mm forks fitted with external adjustments for compression, rebound and spring pre-load that will be coated with TiNolux on the forks to greatly reduce any friction in their action.

Rear suspension is taken care of by a Sachs rear shock with an increase in shaft size to 18mm, a new 25mm twin seal piston new compression circuit, larger shock body and adjustable length inserts.

New 21mm off-set fork clamps that will reduce wheelbase and improve high speed stability have also been introduced for 2009. Both radiators have been moved back for extra protection and to increase turning angle at full lock. Revised rear disc and calliper have also been modified for improved performance and feel.

The EC450 will be available from late August wile the EC515 should be available in late November.
