Gilera's profilation of this bike |
The new Nexus 250 SP is the ultimate expression of Gilera´s passion for performance. The Nexus 250 SP combines the amazing chassis from its larger brother with the latest fuel-injected engine and a fresh new style. The central air-intake and lower front fairing give it a more aggressive look, and the 14´ wheels and 250cc QUASAR engine give the package the performance credentials it deserves. As with its larger brother, the Nexus 250 SP offers performance and style but not at the expense of practicality. With a generous underseat compartment which can hold a full-face helmet, a well-padded seat and an adjustable windscreen the Nexus 250 SP can not only hold its own with smaller sports scooters around town but it can compete with the very best on the motorway. |
