Overview

Introducing the 2011 GAS GAS EC 250 4T, a remarkable machine designed for those who crave the thrill of enduro and off-road adventures. This bike stands out in the competitive landscape of trail-ready motorcycles, combining lightweight construction with robust engineering. With its sleek black, red, and white aesthetics, the EC 250 4T not only makes a striking visual impression but also embodies the spirit of adventure that GAS GAS is known for, proudly manufactured in Spain. At the heart of the EC 250 4T is a powerful 249.30cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers a perfect blend of power and control. With a bore and stroke of 66.4 x 72.0 mm, this engine is designed to provide a responsive throttle and an exhilarating ride on challenging terrains. The liquid-cooled setup ensures consistent performance, while the Keihin FCR-MX37 carburettor optimizes fuel delivery for impressive acceleration. Paired with a smooth 6-speed gearbox, riders can seamlessly shift through gears, making it easy to tackle both steep ascents and fast straights. The hydraulic multidisc clutch provides a light pull and excellent modulation, enhancing overall control. The EC 250 4T boasts a sophisticated chassis and suspension setup, designed to handle the toughest trails with ease. Its Chrom-Molybdenum frame is both sturdy and lightweight, offering exceptional agility. The Marzocchi 45 mm upside-down front forks provide an impressive 295 mm of travel, while the aluminum swingarm and Sachs hydraulic mono shock absorber at the rear offer 310 mm of travel, ensuring an absorbent ride over bumps and obstacles. The bike's braking system features a pair of wave discs—260 mm at the front and 220 mm at the rear—ensuring confident stopping power when you need it most. With a seat height of 940 mm, the bike is accessible for a range of riders, making it a versatile choice for both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike. **
