nhuskys Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 That vintage Sherco 125 is a little down on power compared to a newer 125's But probably a fine bike to start on. Airbox/fender fit can be a problem, as airbox can deform a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwb5151 Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 Watch the side bearings in them, the side bearings went on me which resulted in piston slap but still ran well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveevo71 Posted January 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 It will probably be better to be down on power for a complete beginner..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only had it a couple of months. When the bearings went it had piston slap afterwards. But i still rode it with the piston slap, I was going to get the engine fixed but changed it to a 2011 sherco.
