paul w Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 the 200 , in my opinion would be best. a really nice bike and will do all that a club trial can throw at it and wont get the pilot into trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proc Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 I used to have a 290 sherco and recently switched to a 200 gasser which i find a whole lot easier to ride it's a lot smooter on the power delivery, and my riding has improved with it being easier and more controlable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north_yorkshire_lad Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 125!! it will help to improve your techniques as you can't rely on power to get you out of trouble and despite what people say it will easily pull you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shercrazy Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 GO WITH THE 200! MY BUDDY HAS A 2000 SHERCO AND HE SWEARS BY IT! IT TRACKS WELL IN THE SNOW AND THE MUD, IT'S JUST AN ALL AROUND GREAT BIKE! IF YOU CHOOSE THE 125 I THINK LATER ON DOWN THE ROAD YOU'LL WANT A LITTLE MORE FROM A BIKE BUT THE 200 WILL BE PERFECT, I HAVE A 2.9 2006 AND THERE ARE WAYS TO TAME THE BIKE WITH REEDS AND JETS AND TIMING, OR A SLOW ACTION THROTTLE, I HAD A 250 BETA AND SWITCHED TO THE 2.9 AND MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS AND I'VE BECOME A BETTER RIDER, BUT IT'S YOUR CHOICE, GOOD LUCK..................................JOHN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnq Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 Go for the 200 great bike soft power delivery and forgiving, there will not be a great differenense in riding style from your current bike but if you go for the 125 your technique will have to be completly different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpa3 Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 200's are very good, especially in wet slippy conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
