WIND IN THE P38 2026 GasGas Off-Roaders Feature New Look T he 2026 GasGas motocross and off-road models, including cross-country and enduro, feature a new distinctive look. They get a few technical mods as well, but it's their updated looks that take precedence. Most notable across the 2026 line are black anodized Excel rims, replacing the old-school silver ones. Red seat covers are swapped out for a full-black gripper seat, with Neken handlebars and bar pads also in black, highlighting the styling updates. And of course, the bikes feature fresh graphics. Besides the aesthetic updates, all bikes now have updated fuel-line protection caps that are said to improve durability and prevent dirt from entering the connector. All the 2026 two- strokes feature rerouted wiring harnesses for bet - ter reliability, with all enduro models now coming with a radiator fan. The 2026 MC 50, MC 65 and MC 85 (which is available in two wheel-size options) feature sev - eral technical updates as well, including revisions to the triple clamps and cooling system. Plus, the MC 50 and MC 65 are now equipped with im- proved forks for a plusher feel. All motocross models return for 2026. There will be two enduro models, the two-stroke EC 300 and four-stroke EC 350F. The only cross-country model for 2026 will be the EX 300 two-stroke. Availability and pricing have not been an - nounced. CN When it comes to the 2026 GasGas motocross (MC 450 pictured) and off-road model, the big news is—black rims! The EX 300 two-stroke is GasGas' only cross-country model for 2026.
