April 18, 201115 yr If you have a new Sherco or have not yet pulled it apart, check the airhose connection to the carb. I found mine had not been installed incorrectly (whether by the factory or subsequently I don't know) and the adaptor collet was distorted. As a tip install the airhose to the carb BEFORE attempting to install the carb. It's a bit of a squeeze getting the carb and airhose into place but a lot easier than attempting to install the airhose when the carbys in place.

Really, reading between the lines here, I am not quiet sure if this is good or bad. It either means you got a new bike, or have taken up new bike prep to support your drinking habit!

I suspect that the previous owner hadn't touched it mechanically. No damage had been done and it's the sort of prep that we should all do. Actually I was cleaning out the carb and decided to check things out and it sort of snowballed from there.
