2022 GasGas MC 250 Two-Stroke (Big Bore) Garage Build

Build: Scott McDonough
Some avid moto enthusiasts love tinkering in the shop as much as riding their bikes. Something about walking into the garage or shop and seeing your beauty of a build grow from infancy to a full-grown bike is similar to raising a child. Except that child will not talk back or spit up on you. However, this Garage Build might cost as much as a real human infant! I let Scott McDonough ride one of my GasGas MC 250 test bikes awhile back, and he liked it so much that he purchased one himself. This is his build.
