inchhigh Posted January 31, 2016 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Hi I'm thinking about buying the new 250 what does owners think of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_earle Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 They are fantastic and until Gas Gas comes on sale, the new Sherco is a great bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirdabalot Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I don't own one but the old model will be better in deep water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inchhigh Posted February 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 The airbox does look like it would get a lot more mud and water in it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topline620 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I have a 2016 300 and the air filter element stays a lot cleaner than my old Gas Gas Pro did,and it's a great bike (in my opinion) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabber Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 The air filter is a pain to get at if you have large hands. (get your wife/girlfriend to change the filter element ). I've put some open cell foam in front of the airbox which seems to stop any loose mud etc getting in there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htrdoug Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Haven't ridden my 2016 250 enough to get the filter dirty but in every other aspect it is a step above the rear tank bikes,turning at full lock it just feels totally composed,engine pulls noticeably stronger(Thinking about adding flywheel,but will put in more time on it first) Suspension better than a 2011 or 2010(I don't have enough time on 2012-2015 to fairly judge) Very happy I upgraded(And was able to pass my 2011 250 on to a new rider) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lineaway Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 I`d by the Scorpa. The new Sherco looks like an old bike. The Scorpa just is more eye appealing for the same bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worldtrialchamp Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 not blingy enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
