awilliams64 Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 I was able to ride the new 2012 sherco this weekend. I dont have much to compare it to, the only thing i have ridden is my 04 2.9 sherco, but what a difference! Bike was well balanced, had tons of power and just felt great. Thanks to Ryan Young for letting us have a go at his bike this weekend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtrials31 Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Yeah, it looks great, I haven't had a go on one yet, but I bet it's a ball. I know if I had a choice of a new bike, that'd be the one I'd get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geodet Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 I rode a 290 last week. First impression was how smooth the bottom end seems. I am not sure if it was just newness or if they really have finally sorted out the carburation and engine mapping. I liked the way they have neatly moved the radiator down, but now its out of the way they could have shaved off a bit of the bottom yolk to increase steering lock. Otherwise I am not sure I see the point. A very good looker - I want one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinell Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Oh really, and who sent it ? Surely not someone with a vested interest by any chance is it I think the point he's making is that he agrees with it, even if it's just the usual advertising blurb from a manufacturer?

awilliams64 Posted October 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 it is truly the best sherco yet.they have listened to the owners problems and done their best to solve the faults.the 290 is truly awsome.best bike on the market. i dont own a new sherco, but the reason i really like sherco here in the usa is the support and parts availability. I can call up ryan young products and have any part i need in 1-3 days. I get mine next day...also i see ryan regularly at trials meets and he is more than happy to answer any questions you may have or address problems. Seems like many of the newer bikes have alot of the same features. Support the bike company that has the best support in your area! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
