2006 GAS GAS Pampera 280 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
At the heart of the 2006 GAS GAS Pampera 280 trial motorcycle, GAS GAS pairs a 272.2 cc (16.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 76.0 x 60.0 mm (3.0 x 2.4 inches).
On the scales, the Pampera 280 measures 102 kg (225 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 930 mm (36.6 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,350 mm (53.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5.98-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
