Vehicle Information
GAS GAS EC 250 Dirt Bike (1989-2025)
The GAS GAS EC 250, a renowned 2-stroke enduro dirt bike, has been a staple for off-road enthusiasts from 1989 to 2025. Throughout its long production run, this 249cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder model has seen significant evolution while maintaining its core identity. Early models (1989-2019) primarily featured a carburetor fuel system. A major technological shift occurred from 2021 to 2023 with the introduction of Transfer Port Injection (TPI), followed by Throttle Body Injection (TBI) from 2024 onwards, alongside a brand-new frame and bodywork. Key chassis updates also took place in 2005, 2007, and a complete overhaul in 2024, reflecting its continuous adaptation. Various trims like "Racing" and "Cervantes Replica" offered enhanced components, while the "E" designation indicated electric start. The 2025 model notably shares its platform with KTM and Husqvarna, highlighting its modern design. FAQ:
