If thats where things are going in Spain I'm done.:mad:

I guess I'll wait until I see one perform before passing judgement. I'm not that excited about another 250f but the sidevalve fourstroke that GasGas was working on awhile back would get my attention. Just my two cents. Jim

The sidevalve has been all but killed. The trials guys dont want 4Ts and the guy who designed the engine has gone to work for MV Agusta.

Look at the funky carb on it. Back in 06 GG made a 200 "Hobby" which was basically a parts bin bike made up of crappy parts. This looks like a newer version of it.

The only way I could see that bike being successful is if it has a 32" seat height and is priced under $5000.

Looks like some bargain basement entry level ride. A perfect way to tarnish the Gas Gas name. What are they thinking?

Assuming the motor is reliable it looks like a nice step up from a crf 230. If it is priced about the same. Not a fan of the made in China motor though.

This is a bike that an importer in South America asked GG to build. They can sell a lot of them down there at this price. It isn't meant to be a "performance" unit but an economical dual sport.

That makes sense to me, maybe if they had named them 'Fast' and not used the GasGas name would've been better. I just hope the 'pumpkin' guys don't get a hold of these pictures, they'll not 'spin' it in a good way. As long as my 2T stays pure I'm good with it. :D

Gotta love that Bing carb.:(
