30/09/2000 presentazione
ufficiale a Lecco
The weight reduction of the new Sherco comes
together with important quality controls of all the
parts, some of which have taken place at the Idiada,
the Centro de Tecnificación de Tarragona, where the
pollution testings have been carried out. The
improvement in the quality of the Sherco starts at the
very beginning of the manufacturing process of all its
parts, which undergo strict quality tests before they
enter the production chain in the Caldes de Montbuí
factory. This reduces the probabilty of mechanical
failure to a symbolical minimum.

Riding a Sherco has become an even greater pleasure.
Now the riding is more relaxed and safe thanks to its
balance and manageability, together with the elastic
and powerful engine. With the new weight layout,
together with the lower weight, the centre of gravity
of the the motorbike has changed, bringing along an
important increase in stability even with the
motorbike standing still. This, together with the
freedom of movement of the rider, eases your way to
overcome any obstacle without any effort and with the
maximum safety.
