Vehicle Information
GAS GAS Contact 250 Dirt Bike (2015-2020)
The GAS GAS Contact 250, produced from 2015 to 2020, is a versatile trials motorcycle designed for technical trail riding and lower-class competition. It consistently featured a liquid-cooled, two-stroke, single-cylinder engine with a displacement of approximately 247cc to 248cc, known for its smooth power delivery and strong low-rpm torque crucial for trials riding. During its production run, the Contact 250 saw notable developments. In 2015, it was known as the TXT Contact 250, receiving updates to its suspension, cooling, exhaust, and electrical system. A significant evolution occurred in 2017 with the introduction of the Contact 250 ES (Electric Start). These ES models were designed as dual-purpose motorcycles, offering a blend of trials and trail riding capabilities, distinguished by features like a removable seat and a larger fuel tank for extended excursions. The ES designation, explicitly denoting the electric start system, continued through 2019. By 2020, the "Contact" name was phased out as a standalone model, with the lineage continuing under models like the TXT Racing 250, which maintained the 248cc two-stroke engine but saw no major platform changes despite new ownership.

Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Transmission Oil | Every 5 to 15 hours of riding, or every 1,000 km or annually. Initial change at 500 km, then at 1,000 km. | The GAS GAS Contact 250 is a 2-stroke motorcycle; engine oil is mixed with fuel. Transmission oil requires regular changing. This model does not have a separate engine oil filter. |
| Drive Chain | Clean and lubricate every 5 to 10 hours of riding. | This model uses a chain, not a belt. Regular maintenance is crucial for chain lifespan. |
| Spark Plug | Frequent inspection. Replacement recommended every 13,000 to 16,000 km for standard plugs, but more often for 2-stroke engines and aggressive riding. | Regularly inspect for carbon deposits and wear. 2-stroke engines may require more frequent replacements. |
| Air Filter | Clean and re-oil after every ride in dusty/muddy conditions, or every 2 to 5 hours of riding. | Check before every ride. Replace if damaged, worn, or if fit is no longer snug. |
| Coolant | Annual inspection. Replacement at least once a year, or every 2 years or 38,000 km. | Use high-quality, motorcycle-specific coolant compatible with aluminum radiators. |
Maintenance intervals may vary by model year and riding conditions. Always consult the official owner's manual for precise information.
