Hi Guys, well i have just sold my trusty 03 Sherco 290, I just got my best result in a local boxing day trial so I thought it's time to treat myself, I had no idea which way to go, I wasn't to keen on the sherco been 5 speed, massive step from 3rd to 4th so that sort of put me off the sherco's, Anyway I have dived in a bought a 2011 Beta 290, 8 months old and road registerd, I think I got it cheap

good on yer mate am thinking of a similar swap myself but to a 4t just out of interest what did you get for sherco as am about to sell same bike :icon_salut:

She was a clean one, I got £950 for it, I put it on ebay, they were fighting over it,46 watchers in 12 hours and 20odd questions, most asking what I want for it, i ended the listing early.

I was going to get an new ossa from appleyards £4999, but when I had chance of the Beta I couldn't see the ossa been £2000 better.

I toyed with a 4t but was told they have massive engine braking and can have a habbit or putting you over the bars if you shut off to quick dropping off rocks ect, completley different riding style, for me it was better the devil you know.
