MOTOR
MOTOR
Built to be compact. Built to be lightweight. Built with the latest 2-stroke technology. These three important attributes combine to deliver awesome performance and guarantee day-long fun! And just like with all of our trial bikes, the TXT RACING 250 motor packs a serious punch, mixing low weight and high performance to ensure a next level riding experience. |
CYLINDER HEAD
It's a simple looking part but the exact shape of the TXT RACING 250 cylinder head plays a significant role in ensuring rider-friendly power that can be used to tackle the toughest sections. Ensuring the best engine performance, the cylinder head features cooling ducts to keep temperatures down. |
CYLINDER & PISTON
Ensuring it delivers strong, torquey power each and every ride, the TXT RACING 250 features a professionally engineered cylinder and piston with specifically designed intake and exhaust ports to make the motor the best in its class. A high-performance forged piston is fitted into the 72.5 mm bore, guaranteeing maximum performance and durability. |
CARBURETOR
Giving our 2-stroke motors all the fuel they need for a wide spread of smooth, strong power is the Keihin PWK 28 mm carburetor. |
EXHAUST SYSTEM
A stainless-steel front pipe and rear silencer maximize the power and torque from our compact 2-stroke motors! Both components are low in weight for uncompromised handling yet high in strength for incredible durability. Our engineers also worked on a compact silencer endcap, which reduces the risk of potential damage. What we didn't change is the well-known and loved easy-access design, which allows super quick and simple silencer packing changes, as and when needed. |
TRANSMISSION
The lightest gearbox of any trial bike on the market and another patented GASGAS part! The 4/6 system allows riders to select from six gears when there are only four gears on the internal transmission shaft. It's this kind of tech that just shows how advanced the TXT GP bikes are, especially as the gearbox is low in weight and the unique design allows for super compact crankcases. |
CRANKSHAFT
The TXT RACING 250 crankshaft is key to the motor delivering great traction as well as helping give the bike it's much-loved handling. Perfectly balanced to deliver optimized inertia, its low weight and positioning within the crankcases ensure riders can rely on instant power and enjoy a super agile ride. To increase durability, we use a closed main bearing made by SKF with the strong connecting rod using two needle bearings. |
CRANKCASE
Designed so that the internal parts and shafts within the motor are carefully positioned to boost the bike's overall handling characteristics, the gravity casting process used to make our crankcases ensures they are super lightweight and extremely tough. Ensuring an improved seal, we use a central locating pin and a central seal. Also, the clutch cover includes the clutch master cylinder, further highlighting the overall compact nature of the motor. |
CLUTCH
Release all the torque and power you need with just one finger thanks to our super light BRAKTEC hydraulic clutch! The reliable system is designed to ensure even wear for smooth operation and exceptional performance at all times. Consisting of three Kevlar friction plates, two steel plates, and a Belleville spring design, hours and hours of maintenance free riding is guaranteed. |

PARTS
KICKSTARTER
A reworked kickstarter guarantees improved strength and reliability while the reworked shape of the starter finds an optimal final stop on the footpeg. |
BRAKTEC BRAKES
For complete control, trial specific BRAKTEC brakes are fitted with the monoblock 4-piston caliper and 185 mm NG waved front disc delivering unrivalled performance and accurate braking in all conditions. Together with a 2-piston caliper and a 150 mm NG waved disc at the rear, the overall stopping power on the TXT Racing range is next level. A smoother profile front brake lever also offers a more comfortable feel. |
FAN AND RADIATORS
The seriously clever integrated cooling system on our TXT Racing trial bikes is further improved with a redesigned fan that increases air flow and reduces sound. And with the radiator neatly tucked away between the aluminum engine mounts, the whole system is well protected from crash damage for continued 2-stroke performance. |
WHEELS
They're built to last. Strength and reliability combine to create high performing wheels that will stand the test of time. With a CNC machined hub connected to the cool, black anodized aluminum rims from MORAD with lightweight spokes, this wheelset is capable of soaking up the hardest of hits. Up front, the aluminum axle is low in weight, high in strength, and plays a huge part in ensuring the front-end has a lightweight feeling. |
TIRES
Michelin's super-light X11 tires connect all our TXT RACING bikes to the rocks, mud, and obstacles beneath them. The best in the business, they feature super-pliable knobbles, which together with low pressures offer exceptional grip. |
IGNITION/ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
HIDRIA ignitions generate stronger power, which stabilizes idling and creates a cleaner response from the bottom end. Depending on your riding style and weather conditions, the handlebar mounted map switch allows for a choice of two ignition curves, which can be selected for tailored power in every section. |

STYLE
BODYWORK
Restyled and red, red, red! What's really cool about our graphics is that they're embedded into the bodywork making them super durable. The fresh look is applied onto our slim, ergonomic plastics, which ensures unrestricted movements and allows riders to perform at their very best. As all trial riders hit the deck from time to time, all bodywork is made from a special blend of Polypropylene, which is super flexible and returns to its normal shape after impact, even if bent 180 degrees or more! |
HANDLEBARS & GRIPS
Strong, lightweight, and tapered Neken handlebars are fitted with Renthal grips for the best in both strength and comfort. With the bars clamped into the handlebar clamps made of forged aluminum the entire front-end of the TXT Racing range is super stable with a familiar feel for a confidence boosting ride, time after time. This provides improved stiffness and better feedback to the rider plus we increased protection by adding a bar pad. |
AIRBOX
There aren't many bikes that have an airbox with a such a clever design, but ours do! Not only does it house the top-quality Twin Air filter, but the overall structure also plays a vital role in allowing our trial bikes to be super slim. With easy access to the airbox, filter changes are made quick and easy with just one bolt securing the filter in place. |
FUEL TANK

HANDLING
FRAME
Strong, but with just the right amount of flex. That's how we build our trial frames, using tubular, 1.5mm 25CrMo4 chrome-moly steel for exceptional levels of rider feedback! Using advanced manufacturing processes, each one is crafted with laser cutting and robot welding. The end result is frames that are incredibly durable and ensure true trial performance. Weighing just 6kg, all frames are complete with a robust GASGAS-red powder coating. Lateral hangers made of forged aluminium connect the steering head zone with the large skid plate, that better protects the engine, lower frame rails, and linkage. |
CNC MACHINED TRIPLE CLAMPS
Super cool and guaranteed to ensure front-end stability! Our silver anodized CNC machined triple clamps not only look the business, but they're incredibly lightweight and play a huge role in delivering precise handling. |

To prevent unwanted bottoming, an adjustable spring and End Stroke adjustment can be found inside the left leg, while rebound can be fine-tuned on the right-side fork leg. Connecting the forks and ensuring positive rider feedback from the front wheel is a lightweight, 160-gram aluminum axle. |
SHOCK ABSORBER
Making sure our TXT Racing line-up retains its best-in-class performance across all classes and displacements, a TECH shock is fitted. Delivering the highest levels of comfort and, most importantly, amazing rear wheel traction, with its adjustable rebound damping all riders are able to dial in the shock to suit their riding style and ability. |
SWINGARM
Slim, lightweight, and super-strong! Cast from a single piece of aluminum, the swingarms fitted to the entire TXT RACING range are manufactured with proven rigidity and optimal flex, to soak up the biggest of rear wheel hits with ease. |
FOOT PEGS
To improve comfort on the bike, the footpegs have been fully redesigned with an increased surface area closer to the frame. This unique design including a fixing bolt which is completely hidden in the frame allows riders to grip the bike more efficiently which enhances control considerably when compared to previous models. The same tried and tested special micro-casting process is retained for continued low weight and maximum grip. |
