2002 GAS GAS SM 400 FSE Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in GAS GAS's super motard motorcycle lineup, the 2002 GAS GAS SM 400 FSE utilizes a 399 cc (24.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 47 HP (34.3 kW) at 9,940 rpm while maximum torque reaches 43.2 Nm (31.8 lb-ft) at 6,570 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 117.8 HP per liter and a 3,370 rpm working window between peak torque (6,570 rpm) and peak power (9,940 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 900 mm (35.4 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,475 mm (58.1 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 9.5-liter (2.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
