Review
The 2017 GAS GAS TXT Racing 250 E 4 is a trials motorcycle designed for experienced riders who demand a machine capable of tackling challenging terrain. The 247.7cc single-cylinder engine provides responsive power delivery and ample torque, crucial for precise control when navigating obstacles. Weighing in at 67.5 kg (148.8 pounds) and featuring a 650 mm (25.6 inches) seat height, the bike offers excellent maneuverability. The 2.5-liter fuel tank keeps the weight down, prioritizing agility. The front suspension consists of TECH forks with 39mm aluminum bars, providing a balance of suppleness and control. Braking is handled by a single front disc with floating discs and four-piston calipers, offering reliable stopping power in demanding situations. A 6-speed gearbox ensures the optimal gear is always available, whether climbing steep inclines or navigating tight turns. This motorcycle is aimed at skilled trials riders seeking a machine that is both capable and user-friendly. Its responsive engine, nimble handling, and reliable braking system make it a suitable choice for both competitive and recreational riding. The adjustable suspension allows riders to fine-tune the bike to their preferences and the terrain.
