Default 2010 Sherco 300F...nice

It's actually a 290 but really sweet. 6 speed with FI and light weight. From what I read they can be purchased through the trials bike dealers.

This is the racing version that comes with Ohlins forks and other blingy stuff.

RYP?


Sweet looking bike. That'd be like having a TM only with a lot less pink.

Its their own motor, been in development a few years. I'm guessing its just a big bore version of ther 250. Amazing how Sherco, a small company as well, blew right by GasGas as far as the the 250F is concerned. If you have ever seen a Sherco 450, the motor looks a lot like a KTM RFS. Never saw a 250 in the flesh.

Wait to you see the price of the 300. Holy cow! Still not worth it in my book...

Sherco has the FI thing really dialed. Read any reviews and it's just about perfect in operation. No glitches from bottom to top. The bikes are very very nice with wonderfly smooth motors and great attention to detail. The 300F is based off their little 250 motor and right on par with the KTM for lightness.

Now hold your breath.....If you want one of these little 300F's it'll cost you almost $10.5K to get it to your door. Bikes have to be paid for up front in full (either dealer or you) to RYP and then it's special ordered from the factory and will take 2 months to get to RYP here in the States and then maybe another week to the dealer for delivery. Yes, the trials bike dealers can order them and according to the one in NH I asked about this bike the parts and warranty support from RYP is outstanding. Exclusive club for sure to own one.
