telecat Report post Posted September 11, 2015 Big disappointment to be honest but on par with the Sport going backwards 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

heavydabber Report post Posted September 11, 2015 Rumour is that they reverted to "conventional" locations for the fuel tank and airbox after "noticing" the performance that Scorpa were getting out of Sherco motors with that arrangement. They look ok to me though.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tony27 Report post Posted September 11, 2015 Black petrol tank is a major backwards step, have always liked being able to check the level at a glance on the older bikes 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hgas Report post Posted September 11, 2015 Very disappointing ,the existing design was a little bit different so why they've chucked it away and painted a scorpa blue is abit confusing, how long until they melt into one brand and come out with the sherpa!? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve_earle Report post Posted September 11, 2015 I liked the rear mounted tank, It gave the bike a more central weight, I was looking forward to the new Sherco but I feel they are not unique anymore. I might as well stick to the Beta and Hope Gas Gas comes back to life soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe all to do with the fact that both brands are now owned by the same man...? Bit of rationalisation maybe..? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatjacko Report post Posted September 11, 2015 Agree it looks like a backward step, driven by cost, having ridden a Factory 300, can't believe it's a power issue! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
motomofo1 Report post Posted September 12, 2015 Most everyone I've talked to who have ridden a '15 Scorpa and Sherco preferred the Scorpa. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
copemech Report post Posted September 12, 2015 I see differences in the frame and tank from the Scorpa pics. Beautiful bike, and being the luddite I will take the conventional fuel tank placement any day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
