On September 1, 2022, GASGAS pulled the covers off of its limited edition 2023 RX 450F Replica. Crafted in celebration of Sam Sunderland’s history-making 2022 Dakar Rally win for the storied Spanish brand, this bike is more than just a graphics package. Instead, it’s packed with high-performance features, and ready to go take on some rallies of its own straight from the factory.
The 2023 GASGAS RX 450F Replica is powered by a strengthened, more robust version of the liquid-cooled, 450cc single-cylinder engine with bore and stroke of 95mm x 63.4mm, which also powers the MC 450F. A 44mm Keihin throttle body handles the air/fuel mixture, and a Keihin engine management system keeps everything running smoothly. Both the Brembo hydraulic clutch and the six-speed gearbox have been strengthened, and there’s a Pankl connecting rod and piston installed as well.
