February 3, 201610 yr Hello to all, Yesterday I have purchesed my son a Sherco 125 2012. It still haven't came home but we are both already happy about it like it is. After Scorpa and now Montesa this the first Sherco in our garage. I wanted to ask what are the experiences of those who are owning one? Satisfied? Is there any known bad points we should know? Any necessary pre adjustments we should do? Bike is in a very good condition so I hope it will serve for next few years without problems. Thanks!
February 4, 201610 yr Not sure where you are located, but if the bike has been run on the ethanol laced fuels I would install the Viton seals from Splatshop now as a preventative measure to protect the main bearings.
February 6, 201610 yr It seems most of the fuel in the US and UK are blended with ethanol, which leads to early deterioration of the stock nitrile seals. I estimate 2-3 years average life.
