Performance

The MC 85 packs strong low-to-mid torque and excellent top-end pull, thanks to a controlled exhaust valve and precision-engineered cylinder. Paired with a smooth 6-speed transmission, young riders can push harder with confidence.

Handling

A high-strength steel frame and WP XACT 43 mm USD fork deliver planted straight-line stability and sharp turning. At the rear, the WP XACT PDS shock keeps the bike controlled over bumps and big hits. Wide ergonomics and slim bodywork ensure easy movement while riding.

Braking

Powerful front and rear disc brakes provide consistent stopping performance. A compact rear master cylinder design helps prevent contact during aggressive riding, while a new adjustable brake lever gives younger riders improved comfort.
