    Sherco Help!

    VNBS125TR6A0 after that the numbers are exclusive to your bike

  4. I think it comes down to, if you got it! use it! I understand some clubs are restricted to a small area of intense rocky terrain, other's have less intensity but a greater area to cover, many times I have been told by riders when they hand in their last card "that loop was a blast". If you are used to riding what I call the parking lot trial, then that is probably your preference, but when you can go to places like western Canada, Washington, Oregon and ride long loops with steep climbs and downhill, parts of the trail harder than some of the sections, it is a blast. If you enjoy the parking lot trial, should those who prefer a long loop be restricted to that type of event ? Isn't variety the spice of life ? In a way this topic is no different than which bike is best, it's great to have the choice, and the same is true for the type of event, which would you rather have! a long one or a short one.
  5. This is a gem!! it's ok to move the rock, but not wash it

    Three!! but our lad had a ride on it, that's all it took
  8. He only uses a wok hear they are worse.
  9. I tried the Keihin RE, didn't like it, big flat spot in the middle just when you wanted it. Would like to know what jetting is in your carb and any other mod ? Didn't mount the ign module under the carb, and the new coil where the ign module was placed did you ? I did!! I'll try post a pic . Got nudged down the line RE 500, seen you lurking so I thought I would re post, would like to know any info on your carb. Cheers, ishy.

  11. I hope they stick with it!! cure the starting, I agree! that it should be easy to start for any rider all of the time. in the sections, has many have said, it is a great trials bike. Some mention EFI, on the 3.2 with the power it's got, I think it would be too vicious, I think they can cure it with the right carb setup, hope they do!! because I think it's the best riding bike yet. And in the 06 frame with shorter swing arm, it's even better
  12. It does have the same clutch and feel as the two stroke, the power is very strong, but can be worked off the trottle at low RPM, on the loop you can pull fourth on anything and just work the trottle a blast to ride on the trail as you mention no need to shift. I rode the Mont, in the SSDT, that also is a blast on the trail, it will pull taller gears, wet climbs on the moor in Scotland, were easy on the fourstroke, when some had come to a spinning halt, it just kept on pulling, the more it lugged down, the better it gripped. The Beta has only it's looks to go on at the moment, not many have thrown a leg over it, I was told by someone who did give it a test ride that it was a wonderfull bike to ride, has you can see on the forums, you have to be 100% spot on because people who have not even ridden the bike, can give a detailed report on why they think it will be no good, even when they have no clue. The 3.2 being hard to start, cost Sherco!! and I would think it will be hard for them to get back the ground they lost, Beta are playing it close to make sure they don't fall into the same hole, too many keen to shout foul! sad thing is, they might end up with the brand they were shouting foul about one day, and wonder why the resale value of thier old bike is S1-1ite, what goes around comes around.
  13. The first batch of Sherco 3.2's to hit the UK and some early demo that RYP got over here, were real pigs to start, later bikes seemed a lot better to start, and after fitting the upgrade kit, they start well. I can see why you are p****d Dixi, if you lost five grand, but your experience isn't that of every 3.2 owner, you say it can't be started reliably, I say it can.
  14. Give the tyke a chance, still got bum fluff on his head, Caroline will slapp his ass and send him to bed wi no supper, job e'll be sorted.

    Do you think they just go down the local riding area and park the bike on a rock, for photo shoot's, did anyone hurt thier finger saving your Grannies wheel chair when it got a bit of a tank slapper on.

    It must grip well, he could get any more stiffer legged and further forward than that

    Just looking at that image, anybody tried cutting a piece of front innertube and sliding it over the rear shock, secure it with a couple of zip ties, should keep it nice and clean
