2016 GAS GAS EC 450 Raid Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around GAS GAS's enduro - offroad motorcycle platform, the 2016 GAS GAS EC 450 Raid utilizes a 449 cc (27.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 95.0 x 63.4 mm (3.7 x 2.5 inches).
On the scales, the EC 450 Raid measures 127 kg (280 lbs) dry.
