Thumbs up 2014 GasGas 450 Rally bike.

This will satisfy my adventure bike itch.

I suspect this is where all the R&D resources have been spent. Why? Don't get me wrong, I love me some Rally and that bike is Bitchin' to the Nth degree. In fact I'm building up my WR with a little rally style fairing. But why put so much into a bike that you can't sell to the largest market, the US? Who is even going to ride it? They just let their ace pilot walk for KTM a month before Dakar???

I would rather them make good on warrantying (sp?) the 2012 eff ups than piss away resources on a one off bike that nobody will buy, nor will any rider win on.

Alas, this is GasGas though, it is the way they roll...

What's up with the Ohlins shock.......Reiger shock sticker on the bike?

Other than that.....the bikes looks very cool!

The more I look at it, the more Iproduction based it looks, rather than a "on off"Raid Rally bike.
Euro market sales?

My guess is that they had the photographer already booked

Same guy that left the Ohlins on set the rear brake pedal height ...

If I had to have a big four-stroke, this would fit the bill.

Pardon my ignorance, why can't this bike be sold on your (the US) market?
