Introducing the 2004 GAS GAS Pampera 250, a spirited contender in the cross-motocross category that seamlessly blends agility with performance. As a motorcycle designed for off-road enthusiasts and competitive riders alike, the Pampera 250 stands out with its lightweight chassis and nimble handling. With GAS GAS's commitment to delivering exceptional off-road experiences, the Pampera 250 is a bike that captures the essence of adventure, making it a popular choice for those who thrive on rugged terrains and challenging trails. At the heart of the Pampera 250 lies a robust 247.70 ccm single-cylinder, two-stroke engine that delivers exhilarating power and torque. The engine's bore and stroke dimensions—72.5 mm and 60.0 mm respectively—ensure a responsive throttle with a punchy mid-range, capable of tackling steep inclines and gnarly descents with ease. The liquid-cooled system maintains optimal temperatures even during grueling rides, while the 6-speed gearbox allows for smooth transitions across varying terrains. Riders can expect a thrilling performance, whether they are navigating tight forest trails or cruising through open fields, making the Pampera a versatile companion for any off-road adventure. The Pampera 250 is equipped with a frame crafted from an elliptic profile Cr-Mo tube, providing a perfect balance of strength and lightness at a mere 102 kg (224.9 lbs). Its Marzocchi adjustable hydraulic fork up front, paired with a variable progressive rear suspension, ensures that riders experience excellent shock absorption and stability on rough terrain. With a ground clearance of 320 mm and an adjustable seat height of 930 mm (at the lowest setting), this bike accommodates various rider sizes, enhancing comfort and control. The single disc brakes at both the front (240 mm) and rear provide confident stopping power, ensuring safety on descents and in tricky situations. **
