But where is the most creative, imaginative, technically most advanced country in the world? (Ssshhhh I think it's Japan folks).
I do not doubt Joseph Paxau's engineering ability but against a team of like minded people can he come up with the better goods? The odds are stacked against him.
Being a sherco rider myself I cannot see that the sherco 4 stroke will be more powerful (bottom end power) and better designed than the mont (hrc) 4 stroke.
My opinion is based on the fact that Honda's resources are far greater than Sherco's and that in terms of research and development funds their budget will be bigger.
Also they have more experience in the 4 stroke field due to the fact they make many bikes already with 4 stroke technology.
Being a Sherco fan myself, I hope I am wrong, but I cannot see it.
Well I like my bike to have both good performance and be aesthetically pleasing also.
Pretty boring when everybodies bikes look identical. The sorts of things that would be good to change would be plastics, flywheel covers etc just to give your machine a customized look!
Your right it will not help you kep your feet up but you'll look good dabbing!
cheers r2w some pretty neat stuff on power craft. One problem, I can't read it!
sorry but i think the 99 is the best bike. I like the looks of the 99 and the bultaco thumbs. I have both a 99 & 2002. Technically the 2002 is better but I prefer to ride the 99.
The Mont has'nt really changed since 96 
Running In A New Piston
in Sherco
Posted
When I had my piston done I ran it at 30:1 for the first few hours keeping below half throttle (this is what was recommended to me by the mechanic)
and then after that ran it at 50:1 as recommended on the sherco website
