2014 Sherco 2T & 4T 300's... quick test ride

Decisions decisions....yep ride the sherco and the KTM/husky and see what works for you.... I won't lie I like my 15 tc 250.....but reality check they are all realiable and what works for me may not work for you....a good dealer with good parts availability mean lots to me.good luck!!

I rode my SE R 300 in shitty weather through tight single on the weekend. It was raining, slippery and very tight but so much fun on the Sherco.
I found traction everywhere in mild map and I’m sure I was on the best bike for the conditions.
Next day’s ride was open terrain suited to a dual sport big bore 4T. It handled OK, I just flicked on wild map and hung on tight. Fun!

i call shenanigans. inside infomation!^

ps dont count ya chickens mate they not here yet

Hmmmm, six 2015 Factory edition only bikes for the whole of Australia isn't exactly what I'd call a model release.
And besides, I reckon you owe me a beer for helping you out of the bush

I might get a run on Ian's demo next week

Haha yeah, good point. Pulling smelly socks off my busted legs is worth at least 6 beers.

I wonder how far away the 2016 450's are?
They'd want to keep a couple demo bikes around till they turn up.

Well, IF they're dates are to be believed, I've heard September....
I've heard that before though

Ihave small problem guys....i own fe 350 -14 and ridden it over 100hrs and quite happy with it after suspension,exhaust etc.mods
Im switching new bike this summer and sef-r 300 factory is top of my list☺,i dont have to chance to test ride shercos because dealer is far away
Im 98kg 184cm, amateur class rider and like to extreme/trials type of riding sometimes with my buddies.
Which bike would suited me best? I saw that 450 factory is coming also...

Tommy, the 300 SEF-R is a good choice. They're very agile, easy to ride and have the right type of power for technical riding. It's slimmer and will perhaps "feel" smaller than your FE350. They have enough power but won't have as much as your 350. Just a little less on top end. At 98kg you'll want to put in heavier springs.

I haven't ridden the 450 unicorn so can't comment on that.

With some luck I'll get to ride the 450 Factory thisweekend.
My personal view on the 3004t is it lacks power (in racing version anyway) I haven't ridden the Factory one with better pipe and mapping.
Great nimble bike but you have to work it to keep it moving. The new WR250F engine is a better thing I my opinion.
Sherco is a better handler in the tight stuff

Ok,thank guys!factory version is what im interested,because full akra,mapping and map switch.
Any experience on that bike?

I rode the factory.

Tommy have you ridden a txc310r (or powered-up te310r)?

Power is similar but delivery is smoother on the Sherco, Husky has little more hit.

The Shercos have a reversible throttle cam for enduro/mx. It's best flipped to the quicker pull (mx) for little better throttle response in low rpm.

Boogie, i have ridden husky tcx 310 stock model and i liked it☺
There is nothing wrong with my fe 350 after all mods and hours of testing,but my next bike is something different.

That bike is well sorted. I know 9000 seems a lot when thinking USD but it's a bargain in AUD will all the goodies. It almost swayed Dangermouse away from his beloved valve train and got him mixing gas

Almost....... but not lol
We'll talk again after I've ridden the 450.
