July 30, 200719 yr Caby rep frameCeriani forks(Old indian word for Cadilliac) Dual mode switch(I only have 1) Bold new graphics with lots of WHITE(blood shows up better) Never fails, every time I have a spare mudguard they change the colors, oh well! Comes with new tires and a old kickstand off a Fantic or something! No RED rims, crap! Sorry cocked -up last reply. Is the rear shock still Olle and carb still Dellorto on the 250/290?
July 30, 200719 yr Sorry if this is old news. But I see that the MRS site has a downloadable brochure for the 08 range. It's in the 'news' tab. Does anyone know when these will be in the UK and prices?
August 5, 200719 yr The latest "08" info is now on the Sherco website. http://www.sherco-moto.com Wayne
August 8, 200719 yr Barry, nice pics, i think you will have one of those Shercos later in the year you will love it That's why he is having to buy his own van, he's not putting a sherco on my trailer .... With those tyres and wheel bearings I think I have the better deal
August 8, 200719 yr Looks like the forks are made to Sherco spec for sure! Near identicle on the outside to the Paioli's.I wonder if Barry got i left side pic of the 4T, wonder what carbie they are running on it? Did Graham ride the 4T? I see from their web site (www.paioli.com) that Paioli took over Ceriani in 1997 after the latter had gone bankrupt in 1980! I guess this is an opportunity for them to re-introduce the name. They seem to have either plastic covers or a black coating/paint on the sliders. Here's some Ceriani fork trivia: The original company that produced the Ceriani 35mm forks for road racing and moto-x (ARCES) was founded by Arturo Ceriani in 1964. The name ARCES stood for "Arturo Ceriani from Samarate" His son, Enrico Ceriani, was responsible for fork design and new projects. That company went out of business in 1978. In 1981 Enrico Ceriani was approached by a new company called Forcelle Italia to produce forks from his new designs under a licensing agreement. These were forks of 38,40, and 42mm diameters for road racing, endurance, and moto cross use. That relationship ended in 1987 when he accepted an offer to become a partner in another company. Enrico Ceriani passed away in 1995 after a lengthy battle with Leukemia, so for sure he had nothing to do with these Sherco forks. Steve Storz Storz Performance, Inc.

Sorry need to correct my own post, Enrico Ceriani died in 2001, not 1995 as I stated in this post. Steve Storz
