Take full control of your GASGAS dirt bike with the new GASGAS+ app! Customize the bike’s power to suit your style, take full advantage of thoroughly tested and suggested suspension settings, and even log and analyze your lap times with our rider function powered by LITPro. Every feature has been designed to help elevate your riding ability to make you a faster, safer, and smarter rider. Put simply, installing the GASGAS+ app is just like having a factory race team mechanic inside your phone! The features within the GASGAS+ app are divided into: GENERAL FEATURES – Accessible by anyone and don’t relate to any particular bike OFFROAD FEATURES – These only work with specific GASGAS dirt bikes GENERAL FEATURES: • User profile: Manage your data, set your password, and add your details o Add and remove bikes o Add, remove, and edit the nickname(s) for your bike(s) o Always stay up to date with Over-the-Air (OTA) update function for your CUO o Connect a heart-rate sensor to the CUO o Finish the initial pairing process with your bike(s) OFFROAD FEATURES: • RIDER: Within this section of the app, which is powered by LITPro, GASGAS+ offers amazing insights into your riding. Record your sessions or races, download the details of everything relating to your time on track, then analyze your performance, compare laps, and compete with others on a virtual leaderboard. Please note, for this to work, the CUO and GPS must be connected to your bike. The RIDER feature contains plenty of cool features including: o Lap/Section/Segment time analysis o Side-by-side lap and fastest line on track comparison o Lap99 (theoretical fastest lap) analysis o Speed analysis: top, average, along each lap o Airtime analytics o Heart rate monitor integration (when using a chest strap or watch) o Virtual leaderboard and real comparisons within the community Up to 15 values can be selected for comparison inside the analyze feature, a maximum of two are visible at once! RIDER is only available as an annual subscription. A four-week trial period is available before subscribing. ENGINE: Personalize and change the mapping of the motor, within a predefined range, using the ENGINE feature. Using the app, you can easily fine-tune the launch and traction control, throttle response, engine braking, and even adjust the sensitivity of the quickshifter. But that’s not all. Pre-set engine maps based on terrain and wet or dry track conditions allow you to ride in confidence knowing that your bike is dialed-in with the perfect set up. Adjustability of the following settings are easy to do within the app: o Traction Control o Engine Braking o Throttle Response o Traction Control o Launch Control o Quickshifter Within the app you can save multiple set-ups based on different track conditions and engage the most suitable setting when you arrive at each circuit. SUSPENSION: Within the SUSPENSION feature there are two important functions – SAG Assistant and Suspension Settings. SAG ASSISTANT: Before you start riding, SAG Assistant helps you dial in the SAG on your dirt bike. After you’ve inputted your data, the app may recommend a change to the shock preload or suggest a new spring rate. For most riders, though, the correct SAG can be achieved with the standard spring. SUSPENSION SETTINGS: By using SUSPENSION SETTINGS, riders can create multiple, personalized suspension set-ups after inputting their weight including their riding gear. Once the rider has selected their skill level – Basic, Advanced, or Pro – as well as the Track Terrain – Sand, Soft, Medium, or Hard – they’ll be shown recommended settings, which can then be saved for future reference. OWNER’S MANUAL: When a bike is added to the Virtual Garage, the GASGAS+ app automatically retrieves the owner’s manual in the rider’s first language. This way, routine maintenance can be closely followed to keep the bike running sweet. Terms of Use: https://www.gasgas.com/legal-notices-and-terms-of-use
DOWNLINK

DOWNLINK is a sports telemetry camera. It records your ride and draws your speed, lean angle, G-force, altitude and route onto the video — saved into the file. INSTRUMENTS FOR EVERY ACTIVITY • Motorcycle: lean angle arc, deepest lean each side, G-force • Car / Track: route panel, cornering G, 0–100 and 0–60 timer • Bicycle: grade, elevation strip, climb and descent • Ski / Snowboard: slope, vertical drop, run count LIVE MAP The minimap turns with your heading, zooms out as you speed up and draws the road you have ridden over Apple Maps. Switch it off in Settings when a start or finish should stay private. ONE-TAP REEL When you stop, DOWNLINK finds the best moments in the telemetry — top speed, deepest lean, tightest hairpin — and cuts a 15-second vertical video: the route draws itself on the map, then each moment slows into its peak. Ready for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. RIDE SUMMARY AND SHARE IMAGE Top and average speed, distance, climb, route and place name on one page. Make an image of the ride with the route on the map, with the start and finish hidden if you like. HONEST NUMBERS Every value comes from this phone's own GPS, barometer and motion sensors. When a sensor has no reading, the display says SIM instead of guessing. Lean and G assume the phone is mounted upright; phone GPS updates about once a second — a good record of the ride, not timing equipment. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no ads, no tracking. Your videos and rides stay on your phone. Free: record with one activity and the Drive instruments. DOWNLINK PRO unlocks every activity, the ride summary, the share image and reels without the watermark with a single purchase. Screenshot and preview footage: A. Thiessen, roadstertouren, J.
