Overview

Introducing the 2016 GAS GAS TXT Boy, a finely-tuned trial motorcycle designed to empower young riders and aspiring champions alike. Positioned as a premier entry-level model, the TXT Boy offers an excellent blend of performance, control, and lightweight agility, making it the perfect companion for budding riders looking to conquer challenging terrain with confidence. Crafted in Spain, this motorcycle carries the legacy of GAS GAS, a brand renowned for its commitment to quality and performance in the world of trials. At the heart of the TXT Boy is a robust 49.38 ccm single-cylinder, two-stroke engine that delivers impressive power while maintaining lightness and nimbleness. The bore and stroke dimensions of 40.0 x 39.3 mm ensure efficient combustion, while the Dell´Orto PHVA14 carburettor, with its reed valve intake, guarantees sharp throttle response. Riders will appreciate the variable electronic ignition that optimizes performance across a range of conditions. The 2-speed gearbox allows for easy preselection while standing, giving riders the flexibility they need to tackle both steep ascents and technical descents with ease. With a remarkable weight of just 42 kg, the TXT Boy feels like an extension of the rider, delivering an exhilarating experience during practice or competition. The TXT Boy's features elevate its performance further, starting with its lightweight chrom-molybdenum tubular frame that enhances rigidity without compromising agility. The Marzocchi front suspension with 140 mm of travel and the hydraulic Sachs rear shock with 190 mm of travel work in unison to absorb impact and provide superior handling on varied terrains. Braking is equally impressive, thanks to the single disc brakes paired with 2-piston calipers at both the front and rear—ensuring responsiveness and control when maneuvering through tricky sections. The bike is available in an eye-catching red and black color scheme, appealing to young riders looking for style as well as substance. **

Pros

  • Lightweight & Agile: Weighing only 42 kg, the TXT Boy is easy to handle, making it ideal for young and novice riders.
  • Powerful Engine: The 49.38 ccm two-stroke engine provides excellent power delivery for challenging obstacles.
  • High-Quality Suspension: The advanced front and rear suspension systems ensure superior handling and comfort on varying terrains.

Cons

  • Limited Fuel Capacity: The 3.00 liters fuel tank may require frequent refueling during extended rides or practice sessions.
  • Kick Start Only: The absence of an electric start may be less convenient for some riders, especially in tricky situations.
  • Targeted at Beginners: While exceptional for entry-level, more experienced riders might find the power and features somewhat limiting compared to higher-end models.
