WARRANTY TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(According to Law decree 23/2003 on the 10th of July, covering Warranties on Consumer Item Sales)
Warranty terms of the manufacturer GASGAS Motos, S.A.
The company GAS GAS MOTOS, S.A. (hereafter referred to as “GG”), with this present document guarantees the consumer,
the purchaser of a vehicle manufactured by GG, that both the materials and the manufacturing are free of defects in
accordance with the highest standards of quality. Consequently, GG with this document guarantees the consumer (hereafter
referred to as the “purchaser”), in accordance with the conditions set out below, the repair, free of charge, of any defect
in materials or that might result from faulty manufacture that is detected in a new motorcycle within the period covered by
this Warranty and with no limit on the number of kilometres covered or hours of use.
Warranty Period
The period covered by this Warranty will begin on the day of delivery of the vehicle to the purchaser by a GG authorised
dealer, or in the case of demonstration models, on the date in which the vehicle is used for the first time.
The seller will be responsible for any unwarranted faults that become apparent within the period established in the Law
decree 23/2003 on the 10th of July covering Warranties on Consumer Goods Sold from the time of delivery and in accordance
with the Directive 1999/44/EC for other members of the European Community. For countries outside the European
Community, the Warranty Period will be determined by the existing regulations in those countries. Nevertheless, should
the fault appear during the first six months after the delivery of the motorcycle, it will be presumed that the said fault existed
at the time of delivery; from the end of the sixth month onwards, the purchaser must demonstrate that the unwarranted
fault existed at the moment of delivery. During the first six months subsequent to the delivery of the repaired vehicle, the
seller will be responsible for any unwarranted faults arising out of the repair.
Any defects detected in the product must be brought to the attention of a GG authorised dealer within the Warranty Period.
If the last day of this period is a Sunday or an official holiday, the Warranty period will be extended such that the last day
of the period covered will be the first working day after the Sunday or official holiday.
Those claims under Warranty for defects not brought to the attention of a GG authorised dealer before the end
of the Warranty Period will be excluded.

1.- GG shall have the prerogative to decide, at its own discretion, whether to repair or replace defective parts. Where parts
are replaced, ownership of the parts removed shall pass to GG without any other consideration. The GG authorised dealer,
to whom the making good of the defects has been entrusted, is not authorised to make any declarations that are binding
on GG.
2.- In case of doubt regarding the existence of a defect, or a visual or material inspection is required, GG reserves the right
to demand the return of the parts which are the object of a claim under Warranty, or to arrange an inspection of the defect

service rendered free of charge, are excluded from the effects of this present warranty. The Warranty on parts replaced
within the Warranty Period will end at the expiry date for the Warranty Period of the product concerned.
3.- Should it prove to be the case that a defect can not be repaired, the purchaser guaranteed shall have the right to the
cancellation of the contract (payment of compensation) or a partial refund of the purchase price (discount), instead of
repairing the motorcycle.
4.- Any claims against Warranty by the purchaser under the terms of the sale contract with the corresponding authorised
dealer shall not be affected by the terms of this present Warranty. Neither will this present Warranty affect those additional
contractual rights acquired by the purchaser under the general commercial terms and conditions of the authorised dealer.
However, such additional rights may only be exercised through claims against the authorised dealer.
5.- Should the purchaser resell the product within the Warranty Period, the duration and conditions of the present Warranty
