S
herco will offer two
off-road two-stroke
models for 2017—the
250 and 300 SE-R Fac-
tory. The French/Span-
ish manufacturer will also
import three four-stroke
models: 250, 300 and 450
SEF-R Factory.
The SE-R Factory two-
strokes get all-new styling
and plastic, which is said
to be more durable. The
bikes also feature in-mold
graphics. They also get
higher-capacity fuel tanks,
modified chassis geom-
etry, frame reinforcements,
revised shock linkages,
larger-diameter axles,
stronger swingarms and
spokes and new grips.
In the motor depart-
ment, the 250 and 300
SE-R Factory models have
reinforced cylinder head
mounting, balanced crank-
shafts, updated V-Force
reed assemblies, more ef-
ficient and stronger pistons
and new cylinders.
The SE-Rs should be
available in the U.S. by late
August. MSRPs have not
yet been announced.
