I felt it were time to finally ask this question and start a new topic.
Euros, Pounds, Dollars, ect... Whats the price on one of these?
I heard a rumor this weekend from a trials nut that it was around 6 to 7 grand new here in the states.
I thought i read some where that it was about 4000 euros.

I find it hard to find prices next to bikes at times in the trials world.

Yep...finding a "list price" is a challenge.

BTW, 4000 Euros = 5656.59 USD right now.

How can we get an accurate U.S. price if there isn't even an importer yet?

I expect the price to vary from dealer to dealer.

I am not sure if this is the case in europe or just the states but over here you can go to 4 dealerships and ask about the same brand new bike and have upto 1000 dollars difference from one to the other. The list price seems to be a bit flakey and you know that nobody is getting rich off of these things. Certainly not in the States.

I know a lot of people looking for the end of the season deal right now and can't find them. Examples i have seen are 3100 for an 01 gg 321??? 2500 for a 98 beta? Yet I have heard of 5200 for 07 gg's.

4 to 5 grand will knock the pants off of the other makes. But you have a huge trust gap to cross. The two year warranty might just bridge that gap.

I would hope that Sherco are successful in blocking these parasites, from sale or manufacture, they've spent a heap of money promoting and developing this FINE brand.
