I have just brought a Gas Gas TXT Pro which was advertised as a 270cc so how do I know which model it is please.

Oh its a 2003 model

Usually the cylinder will have "GG28" cast in it, on the left side, I think.

Or, look at the VIN number on the headstock (behind the headlight) and it will be "VTRGG2803......". The chassis numbers up to 2003 have the following code:

Example: VTRGG 2800 0200 9955

VTR = International manufacturers code. VTR = GasGas

GG = Trial model (Company code to identify model EC = Enduro & MX, FS = Four Stroke, WD = Quads)

2800 = "28"0 model, year 20"00"

0200:

02 = Manufacture month. (2ND month) February.

00 = Year of manufacture 2000.

9955 = sequential chassis number (9,955th built in this year.)

Cheers.

Thanks for this I have just looked and its a 250, it was advertised as a 270. I wanted the more powerfull bike because of my 15st weight. I will call the guy tomorrow as I think being a 250 I have paid too much for it

I have a 280 Pro and am close to your weight at 14 stone, and have riden the 250 and found it quite nice, with enough power to do whatever I had the guts to try. The lighter weight of the Pro offsets displacement to a degree and if you are starting out in Trials, I would think the 250 just about perfect.
