Their aspect, in any case, is not at all to the enduro range. At first the new SM shows significant changes. The remarkable one is the wheels: the Supermotard wide tyres with low profile on 17’’ duraluminium rims.
These are high-performance tyres. A first glance also display aesthetic in the front mudguard, much and flat than the ones in the Enducross.
A closer look at the shows another significant the front brake calipers, two pistons in the smallest bike 50cc- and four in the rest, from competition and with big- diameter discs in the 50cc and 310mm in its larger The use of this high-quality material in the discs ensures the performance of the brake on tarmac.

GAS GAS ENGINE. WHY?
When GAS GAS deveolping their new enduro with their own 2-… engine, procedures were at once to commercialise it in Europe and the of the countries where the manufacturer
The research department started to different technical solutions to the production process, adapting the so that it would meet the EEC noise level regulation 9), which sets the maximum in 80 dB (A) at of the speed where the maximum is achieved (this corresponds to in third gear).
However, the difficult part of the regulation was for a engine to meet the emission (chapter 5). The European standards set the maximum levels at 8 g/km CO, 4 of unburnt hydrocarbons and 1g/km of Oxide per cycle.
For a 2-… engine to meet requirements it was necessary to fit the motorbike a catalyst in the exhaust pipe.
together with the fact the market welcomed the use of small or single-cylinder engines for their use in bikes and that more and countries were using the levels to stop 2-… from entering their was central in the decision to develop engines.
