Overview

Introducing the 2011 GAS GAS EC 250 2T Six-Days, a true contender in the realm of enduro-offroad motorcycles. Designed specifically for the International Six Day Enduro race, this machine is a testament to GAS GAS's commitment to performance, durability, and rider-focused innovation. With a lightweight frame and powerful two-stroke engine, the EC 250 2T stands out in a competitive market where agility and reliability reign supreme. Whether you’re tackling rugged trails or navigating through technical sections, this bike is engineered to elevate your off-road experience. At the heart of the EC 250 2T is a robust 249.30cc single-cylinder two-stroke engine that delivers an exhilarating ride. With a bore and stroke of 66.4 x 72.0 mm, this engine offers a perfect balance of power and responsiveness. The liquid cooling system ensures optimal performance even in the most demanding conditions, while the Keihin 38 mm carburettor, featuring reed valve intake, provides smooth throttle response and optimal fuel efficiency. Paired with a 6-speed gearbox and a hydraulic multidisc clutch, riders can expect seamless gear transitions that enhance overall control and performance on varied terrain. The EC 250 2T is equipped with an advanced chassis and suspension system that underscores its off-road capabilities. The Cr-Mo tubular frame provides a robust yet lightweight structure, ensuring optimal handling and stability. The front end features a Sachs 48 mm aluminium up-side-down fork, offering 295 mm of travel, while the rear is complemented by an Öhlins 888 hydraulic mono shock absorber with 310 mm of travel, providing exceptional comfort and traction on uneven surfaces. Braking is equally impressive, with a wave floating disc setup that allows for precise stopping power, ensuring riders can tackle steep descents and sudden obstacles with confidence. **
