I know I'm kind of hijacking this thread and we haven't really answered the original question that started this thread...

But, from what I can tell, the EC50boy and MC50 have Franco Morini motors with Gas Gas specific modifications. I know my EC50boy is a Morini with Gas Gas mods. The EC50boy also has a Gas Gas frame.

The MC50 has what appears to be a Conti RX 50 frame and "Gas Gas-ized" Morini motor. The MC65, as pointed out by bergerhag, is similar to the Conti 65 with a "Gas Gas-ized" motor (Morini as well?).
Does anyone know if Derbi and Conti use a Morini for the 65?
Gas Gas has obviously modified the motors to "Gas Gas-ize" them.

I'm just guessing, but my bet is that the EC and SM Rookies have Gas Gas frames and Gas Gas modified Morini motors in them as well.

This is all conjecture and speculation based on wrenching my EC50boy, flipping through parts books and photos, but it's more than we have now.

Plus, all my drivel may get us a MiniGasser forum.
