Just wondering if anyone has reliable news on Scorp'as future. Is it going to survive or fail...there seems to be very little discusion and most of the "facts" are contradictory. The US importer really seems to be focusing on Sherco. Hate to see another brand go away.

Dont worry, they will be fine.

What they need is SALES SALES SALES, expect some good deals as they will churn the tin for the rest of 2009. Nice solid bikes, hampered by the lack of a full factory tuned model with a top 10 world rider on the books ,,, i think the will come through with stronger marketing of the longride into the enduro / trail market and aimed at the old school boys that want a bike that will be easy to handel rather than white knuckles 'R' us. fingers crossed for Scorpa

They wont have a problem selling the bikes, its a cash flow problem they have had as they expanded quickley recentley. The needed cash to pay there supplyers.

As I see it the U.S. importer has always focused on Sherco. I hope Scorpas become available here in the U.S. so we American riders can help them through their economic tough times.

I agree, I hope to see Scorpa make it through this. They need to get more bikes in the U.S. and get some top riders promoting them as well. World wise, get a few world riders to promote and ride the bikes. I don't think I've seen a world rider riding a Scorpa in a few years. That can't be good for sales. They are great bikes, I would have one if I could afford it. But they are not out there as much.
