Overview
Introducing the 2020 GAS GAS TXT Racing 250, a motorcycle that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of trial riding. Designed and crafted in Spain, this bike is not just a machine; it’s a testament to GAS GAS's commitment to delivering high-performance trial motorcycles that cater to both competitive riders and enthusiasts alike. With its striking red, black, and white color scheme, the TXT Racing 250 stands out in the paddock, making it an eye-catching choice for riders who demand both style and substance. Its lightweight construction and powerful engine make it an excellent option for riders looking to tackle challenging terrains and obstacles with grace and precision. At the heart of the GAS GAS TXT Racing 250 lies a robust 247.70 ccm single-cylinder, two-stroke engine, engineered to deliver an exhilarating ride. With a bore and stroke measurement of 72.5 x 60.0 mm, this engine provides a perfect balance of torque and power for trials riding. The carburettor-fed engine utilizes a Keihin PWK 28 system, ensuring quick throttle response and superb fuel delivery, while the CDI digital ignition system enhances reliability and performance. Riders will appreciate the smooth power delivery across the rev range, facilitated by a 6-speed gearbox that allows for quick gear changes. The bike's lightweight frame, tipping the scales at a mere 67.5 kg (148.8 pounds), makes it agile and responsive, enabling riders to navigate tight turns, steep climbs, and tricky obstacles with confidence. The TXT Racing 250 is equipped with cutting-edge features and suspension technology that elevate its performance even further. The chrom-molybdenum tubular frame is designed for maximum rigidity and minimal weight, providing a solid foundation for the advanced suspension components. The front suspension boasts adjustable Race tech settings for both low and high-speed compression and rebound, while the rear suspension features an ÖHLINS hydraulic mono shock absorber with two-way adjustability. The braking system is equally impressive, with a single disc setup on both the front and rear, ensuring powerful stopping capability when it matters most. With a seat height of just 630 mm (24.8 inches), this bike offers excellent control and maneuverability, making it suitable for riders of various sizes. **
