You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 34.205.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:44, 30 September 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

==Company history==
In 1973, Narcìs Casas and Josep Pibernat began operating a [[Bultaco]] motorcycle franchise in Salt.<ref name="Gas Gas History 1985"/> With the financial demise of the Bultaco factory in 1979, Casas and Pibernat began importing Italian [[SWM (motorcycles)|SWM]] motorcycles until 1984 when the manufacturer ceased operations.<ref name="Gas Gas History 1985"/>

Casas and Pibernat then embarked on a programme to manufacture trial motorbikes for sale in their shop.<ref name="Gas Gas History 1985"/> Gas Gas began manufacturing trial motorcycles in 1985, [[enduro]] and [[motocross]] motorcycles in 1989, and [[all-terrain vehicles|quads]] in 2002. The name Gas Gas literally means "to gas it" (to accelerate, give it the gas, turn the throttle - to go faster.) The Gas Gas founders have, at times, expressed misgivings about the chosen name as it causes confusion outside Spain. Others have joked that Gas Gas are so good that they had to name them twice. The slogan "Gas Gas = Fast Fast" was used by the US importer, GasGas North America, from 1999–2002 to try to help people understand the unique name.

In 2014, Gas Gas merged with Spanish motorcycle manufacturer [[Ossa (motorcycle)|Ossa]] and was ultimately acquired by the Torrot Group in 2015.<ref name="Gas Gas Motos, SA and Ossa Factory, SL join forces">((cite web |url=https://gasgas.com/us/news/gas-gas-motos-sa-and-ossa-factory-sl-join-forces/98/481 |title=Gas Gas Motos, SA and Ossa Factory, SL join forces |publisher=gasgas.com |access-date=29 March 2020 ))</ref><ref name="Gas Gas and Ossa Merge">((cite web |url=https://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/gas-gas-ossa-merger/ |title=Gas Gas and Ossa Merge |publisher=asphaltandrubber.com |access-date=14 May 2019 ))</ref><ref name="Classic Motocross Iron: 1971 Ossa 250 Stiletto">((cite web |url=https://motocrossactionmag.com/classic-motocross-iron-1971-ossa-250-stiletto/ |title=Classic Motocross Iron: 1971 Ossa 250 Stiletto |publisher=motocrossactionmag.com |access-date=29 March 2020 ))</ref>

In 2019, Gas Gas was purchased by Pierer Mobility AG with links to [[KTM]] motorcycles.<ref name="KTM Buys Gas Gas"/><ref name="KTM Buys Gas Gas Well 60 Percent of it at Least"/>

==Championships and riders==
[[File:Ggpaddock.jpg|left|thumb|Gas Gas trials paddock, Duluth, Minnesota, 2004.]]
In 1993, Gas Gas succeeded in luring the multiple [[List of motorcycle trials champions|world trials champion]] [[Jordi Tarrés (motorcycle racer)|Jordi Tarrés]] away from [[Beta (motorcycle manufacturer)|Beta]] and he promptly won three successive world trials championships (1993, 1994 and 1995) for Gas Gas.

More recently, Gas Gas won the Trial Outdoor World Championship twice (2005 and 2006) with [[Adam Raga]]. It has also won the Trial Indoor World Championship in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 also with Raga riding.<ref>[http://www.trialonline.org trialonline.org]</ref><ref>[http://www.indoortrial.com/ indoortrial.com]</ref>

Gas Gas has also been successful in the [[World Enduro Championship]]. [[Paul Edmondson (enduro rider)|Paul Edmondson]] won the 125cc world championship in 1994 and the 250cc class in 1996, [[Petteri Silván]] the 250cc and the overall championship in 1999, and [[Petri Pohjamo]] the 125cc class in 2003.<ref>[http://we.abc-wec.com abc-wec.com]</ref>

In 2006, British Enduro Champion [[Wayne Braybrook]], riding a Gas Gas, was one of only two riders to finish all 80 miles of the [[Red Bull]] [[Last Man Standing (motorcycle race)|Last Man Standing]] event. 126 other riders did not finish the race.<ref>[http://www.redbulllastmanstanding.com/ redbulllastmanstanding.com]</ref>

It was announced that Gas Gas would field a one rider team for the 2021 [[AMA Supercross Championship|Monster Energy Supercross]] season. [[Justin Barcia]] rode the #51 Troy Lee Designs/Red Bull/Gas Gas Factory Racing team bike to a win in the season opener at [[Houston]].

The brand has competed in the [[Dakar Rally]] with [[Laia Sanz]] (2012 and 2021), [[Daniel Sanders (motorcyclist)|Daniel Sanders]] (since 2022) and [[Sam Sunderland]] (since 2022). Sunderland won the [[2022 Dakar Rally|2022 edition]].

==Importing==
Gas Gas bikes are currently [[import]]ed into many countries in [[Europe]] and around the world, including [[Australia]], [[New Zealand]], [[Canada]], [[South America]], [[South Africa]] and the [[United States]].<ref>[http://www.gasgasmotos.es/eng/db/dis.htm gasgasmotos.es] ((webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080128150843/http://www.gasgasmotos.es/eng/db/dis.htm |date=2008-01-28 ))</ref>

==Models==

===Enduro/off-road===
[[File:Mc250-2005.jpg|right|thumb|2005 MC 250 [[Motocross]] bike.]]
While the ''[[Gas Gas EC|EC]]'' ("Enducross") and ''MC'' (motocross) models are shipped worldwide, Gas Gas has manufactured specialized models for the United States [[off-road]] market. The ''XC'' ("Cross Country" produced from 1999–2002) and the ''DE'' ("Dealer Edition" produced from 2002–2006) models were successful attempts to customize the product to the US market.

The ''FSE'' and ''FSR'' are the fuel injected, four-stroke [[enduro]] bikes similar in appearance to the ''EC'' models.

Prior to 2007, each color on the ''EC'' model line represented the [[engine displacement]] range of the motor.
* ''Yellow'' – 125 cc and 200 cc.
* ''Red'' – 50 cc, 250 cc, 400 cc and 450 cc.
* ''Blue'' – 300 cc, 450 cc.

In 2007–2009, the company standardised to the colour red for all displacements and models. As of the 2010 model year, all standard EC models are black with red and white accents. The "Six Days" edition uses white plastics with red, yellow, and black accents. The "Racing" models are white with black and yellow accents.

===Trials===
The ''TXT'' models are specifically designed for trials riding. The ''TXT'' trials model line also used a similar color code to the '''EC''' line. ((Citation needed|date=May 2022))

===Quads===
[[File:Gas Gas Wild HP 240.jpg|thumb|2005 Gas Gas Wild HP240 Quad]]
The Gas Gas [[all-terrain vehicles|sport quads]] are sold under the ''Wild HP'' brand and come in two-stroke and fuel-injected four-stroke models.

Prior to 2007, the ''Wild HP'' line of quads were available in a choice of blue or red regardless of displacement. Beginning in 2007 the ''Wild HP'' line standardized to black.
