Overview

Introducing the 2019 GAS GAS EC 250 Six-Days Chile, a motorcycle that embodies the spirit of competition and adventure. Designed for enduro and off-road enthusiasts, this model is part of GAS GAS's limited edition series, celebrating the Six Days Enduro event held in Chile. This bike is not just a machine; it’s an invitation to explore the untamed wilderness, offering a combination of lightweight agility and robust performance that will delight both seasoned riders and newcomers alike. Its striking red, blue, and white color scheme pays homage to its racing roots, ensuring you not only ride with confidence but do so in style. At the heart of the EC 250 Six-Days is a potent 249.30cc single-cylinder, two-stroke engine that delivers crisp power and impressive acceleration. The engine’s design features a bore and stroke of 66.4 x 72.0 mm, allowing for a spirited performance that is both responsive and exhilarating. The carbureted fuel system, equipped with a Keihin PWK 38, ensures that every twist of the throttle translates into an immediate burst of power, while the six-speed gearbox provides seamless gear transitions. With a liquid cooling system keeping the engine at optimal temperatures, riders can push their limits without worrying about overheating. The bike’s relatively lightweight construction at just 105 kg (231.5 lbs) enhances its nimbleness, making it a joy to navigate through tight trails and rocky terrains. The GAS GAS EC 250 Six-Days is loaded with advanced features that elevate the riding experience. Its durable chrome-moly steel frame provides the backbone for stability and control, while the KYB front suspension, with its 48 mm forks and AOS system, absorbs shocks with precision. The progressive rear suspension, combined with an aluminum swingarm, offers a smooth ride over uneven surfaces. Braking is equally impressive, with a robust 260 mm front disc and a 220 mm rear disc ensuring quick stops and reliable handling in challenging conditions. Additionally, the bike boasts both electric and kick-start options, allowing for flexibility and reliability in any situation. Overall, the 2019 GAS GAS EC 250 Six-Days Chile stands as a testament to innovation and performance in the enduro segment. Whether you’re racing through rugged trails or embarking on an off-road adventure, this motorcycle is engineered to provide an exhilarating experience that resonates with the spirit of exploration.
