Technical Overview
2023 Gas Gas SM 700 R Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Gas Gas for the super motard motorcycle segment, the 2023 Gas Gas SM 700 R utilizes a 692.7 cc (42.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 74 HP (54 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 73.5 Nm (54.2 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 106.8 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,000 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 898 mm (35.4 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,490 mm (58.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 13.5-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.1 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 329 km (204 miles) between fill-ups.
