nigel dabster Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 So it runs like a sewing machine doesnt get too hot when ridden for a couple of hours and grips as well? I suggest you contact Paxau quick as I am sure he would love to know where the one that works is.......... Sarcasm apart if it works then great.

shercoben12 Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Oh right . I thought I saw that that oil was ok on another forum . Oh well! I was just looking through the new subjects and Am quite interested in the Sherco 4t trials and thought id take a look. The Eastbourne club (EDMCC) are holding a Good Friday trial at my local great bit of land in rush lake green. This is the coming Friday. All the local clubs are invited including gest. Start at 11.

castlegary Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 Hi castlegary not sure which post your referring to????? lol the sherco 4T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanman1950 Posted May 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Well three trials down!! and getting used to the 4T,first two trials were ok re starting easy peasy especially when cold as advised no choke,no throttle two easy kicks then a firm prod and away she goes even when hot until the last trial. Just changed from std plug to a Platinum one but on taking out the std plug looked as if running a bit rich,any idea ref setting for mixture screw. Thanks in advance....Pete.
