2005 Buyer's Guide: Gas Gas


Gas Gas

While it may have only two ATVs to offer at this time, the Gas Gas Wild line of ATVs is pretty wild (no pun intended). The Wild 450 and Wild 300 are machines more suited to the sport enthusiast looking for something unique. These European racers come with a host of serious high-performance hardware (-hlins shocks, Maxxis tires, you name it).
