sherco 125 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 i am impressed by the 4 storke scorpa as its well nice but has any body seen one before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomant Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Does anybody have the low down on the specs for this machine? I really want to know how much it weighs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 I would guess that the motor weighs about 4kgs (8lbs) heavier than a 2t, rest would be much the same. But it looks a big old lump not like the 4rt would like to see them side by side. They did say we would get them February didn't they?

atomant Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 I have to say that its looks are stunning. It has fine lines and looks well engineered. Im definately going to test ride one when they arrive ! Any idea what they cost? and does it bloody start !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essex rider Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 on an american website it said $9000 so i guess about the price of a 4rt or maybe a bit more. Im guessing they will start as they have a yammy engine and these always start! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barcota Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 What American web site quoted $9000 for the SY 250f? The Montesa 4rt is around $7500 and the Sherco 3.2 is a couple of hundred dollars more. The SY price is quite high from what one would expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essex rider Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 come to think of it, the websit may have been australian! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DGShannon Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 (edited) Any "Amercian" website you may have seen wouldn't know the price, because the US and South American Distributor doesn't know yet. If you want the specs we do have, you can see them here: http://www.scorpa-usa.com/ScorpaUSA/SY250F/SY250F.htm Making unfounded statements (such as new bike prices) is always a bad plan, as there is always some goofball somewhere who picks it up, and starts spreading it around as fact.

munch Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 yes, and if you ever owned a wr 400 or 426 as i have, im not sure you would be praising yamaha starting either!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikespace Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Im guessing they will start as they have a yammy engine and these always start! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ever ridden an XT500? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munch Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 its not all bad!my wr 450 starts fine with a kick or push of the button but as ff says more parts = weight plus that engine is a screemer not torque based. so we all wait to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essex rider Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 firstly thanks for calling me a goofball and also the only yamahas ive had were the motox ones up to 400 4stroke and all started reel easy so sorry about that comment if some dont. Hopefully there will be some internal pics/diagrams so we can see if there is much of a flywheel, on the video on another link some guy stalls it so im guessing its the same or a the rider hasnt been on many 4t bikes so wasnt used to it. as for the price im sure if you contact the importer he may be able to help you out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the artist formerly known as ish Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 What American web site quoted $9000 for the SY 250f?

subira Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Nice pic of Everts testing it on TMX Page 3 - notice the manual decompression lever on the clutch side and the size of the rear sprocket has increase IMHO. Look out SSDT rockery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Perhaps they haven't changed the gearbox then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
