telecat Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Big disappointment to be honest but on par with the Sport going backwards 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jreilly Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Sure does look like the scorpa but makes sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavydabber Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Rumour is that they reverted to "conventional" locations for the fuel tank and airbox after "noticing" the performance that Scorpa were getting out of Sherco motors with that arrangement. They look ok to me though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony27 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Black petrol tank is a major backwards step, have always liked being able to check the level at a glance on the older bikes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hgas Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Very disappointing ,the existing design was a little bit different so why they've chucked it away and painted a scorpa blue is abit confusing, how long until they melt into one brand and come out with the sherpa!? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_earle Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 I liked the rear mounted tank, It gave the bike a more central weight, I was looking forward to the new Sherco but I feel they are not unique anymore. I might as well stick to the Beta and Hope Gas Gas comes back to life soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe all to do with the fact that both brands are now owned by the same man...? Bit of rationalisation maybe..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatjacko Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Agree it looks like a backward step, driven by cost, having ridden a Factory 300, can't believe it's a power issue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motomofo1 Posted September 12, 2015 Report Share Posted September 12, 2015 Most everyone I've talked to who have ridden a '15 Scorpa and Sherco preferred the Scorpa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copemech Posted September 12, 2015 Report Share Posted September 12, 2015 I see differences in the frame and tank from the Scorpa pics. Beautiful bike, and being the luddite I will take the conventional fuel tank placement any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
