"The Pampera sized against a regular size enduro bike, in this case a Gas Gas EC300 enduro. Many people have been asking about the size of the new Pampera in relation to typical MX/Enduro motorcycles. I had the opportunity to compare a new 250 Pampera and EC300 Enduro and am pleased to present to you these photos. In the left side view photo, the Pampera doesn't appear much smaller than the enduro motorcycle. This is because it is in the foreground and closer to the camera. In the rear view photo the difference can be clearly seen. Both motorcycles are 2002 models. All full size two cycle enduro motorcycles made by GasGas share the same chassis. I used the EC300 model as it was the same color as the 250 Pampera". Jim Snell.
Check out the Pampera in action! Trials champions Geoff Aaron and Jess Kempkes love the Pampera, and former National #2 Mark Manniko loves it so much he bought 2 of them so he can ride with his Wife. Here's a couple of video clips:

The Pampera is available in 2 sizes for 2005, a 250 and a 280. The 280 model has plenty of power for higher elevations. The only difference between the two models is the engine capacity. The Pampera has been fitted with the highest quality components available. The Marzocchi forks, and four piston brakes at both ends allow the bike to be ridden over some very serious terrain, as can be seen in the video clips. Another major attraction of this machine is the price! The quality/price ratio is incredible.

Without question this machine has opened up a category in the market for seriously capable machines that are not intimidating or difficult to ride. With the low seat height and friendly engine, the Pampera truly can do it all!
