Here's my 20 hour review.. bike never has felt heavy. Ridden multiple bikes in between mine on rides and you can't feel the difference. Motor is amazing, lugs up anything. I've never stalled it. I like the stock suspension but being 220 lbs it isn't right for me. Wish these manufacturers would look at their average customer base and realize we aren't all 175 lbs with gear.. sending my suspension in on Monday which I'm excited about! Being 6`2" I added 1" bar risers and put the handlebars in position 4 on the triples and feels perfect. Buy the swing arm chain guide tab protector immediately if you do hard Enduro. The wishbone on the Linkage on these shercos are higher up than the ktms we compared them to eliminating imo the need for a new skidplate with the linkage protector.. happy about that. Stock Michelin Enduro tires are fantastic.. actually buying another set. Suggest trying dropping the forks to the top line to get that higher speed stability. Turns on a dime still.. counterbalancer really is great.. rode cr500s for years so im not the one to ask about vibration.. overall quality of the bike is great.. keihin carb is outstanding. Much prefer it over tpi. Stock grips are actually pretty good.. Also always wire the stock grips on any bike... love the quick release seat. Air filter is a little bit of a pain to get in and out but not a big deal.. if you remove the tail light bracket assembly it will open two massive entry holes that flow dirt directly off the rear tire, up under the seat and right on the air filter.. seal those holes up.. Plenty of air gets in from the side panels anyway. I don't mean to hijack this review but I'm hoping I can maybe help out with someone's new bike purchase.. the hype is real on these factory bikes coming out..
Just recently started to really research Sherco Bikes in depth and ended up picking up an SEF300 Factory to go w my 21' KTM 250XC.....These are really well made and handling bikes...come w a ton of upgraded parts off the floor too. So far really happy w it....looking now to pickup a 300 2T. Expecting to have a great experience. Thanks for the review!
Got my 300 SE 3 days ago. Exact sentiments. Fix footpegs by wedging thin hard plastic behind to get camber...works perfect. If altitude is concern, put STIC block in the carb and ride anywhere on one jetting with airscrew adj. Only. Was surprised at vibes but soon as you ride they are gone. Great complement to my 250xc.
Excellent unbiased review, I'm not sure about the pegs after 11 hours on mine, but what you say about moving around is food for thought. My biggest issue with mine is the noisy front brake.. cleaned and fiddled around with it but still noisy. New brake pads I think.
Love the initial review. Half of the views may be from me haha .... how noticeable is the weight difference between your 250xc? What makes it feel heavier in your opinion? Any help is appreciated
Thanks! It only feels heavier when you need to pick it up, for example you get caught on a root and need to physically lift the back end up to get it over. When you are actually riding it's not an issue at all.
I have a ktm 2020 250xc tpi love the bike but hate the wp forks. I live and ride in the pacific northwest as well. My buddy owns a 250 sherco with k teck spring suspension and my God what a difference felt like I was floating! I'm ordering air to spring conversion with k teck. We shall see what a difference it makes.
@@PNWEnduro I said the same the same thing and had lots of air fork lovers trying to bash me over it lol. I wonder if they realize WP's best fork is a spring fork so WP obviously knows it too!
jumped on our 21 250se, turned back clickers 2. rejetted 3 leaner. 4800feet. bike handles like a dream, best suspension out there. thing hauls ass. KTm kilaaa
I rode one a few months back. I agree that the frame feels totally different than anything else on the market. It took me some time to get used to it. I loved everything about the bike except that I struggled to really grip the frame with my legs. It always felt like I was falling off the back. Definitely couldn't get as comfortable on it as I was the first time I threw a leg over a Beta. Instantly felt at home on the Italian beauties when we rode them together at the demo day together here in Ontario.
That's funny, I have a Beta 430 and had a Beta 300 before I went over to a Sherco 300 SEF (4 stroke). The Sherco is a blast and so nimble, it turns on a dime and switchbacks are so easy. I am having so much fun riding it that I may sel the 430 and get either a Beta 250 or a Sherco 250. I had many 300s in the past and want to try a 250 this time.
@@TorqueDorque I've always preferred 250's over 300's when it comes to smokers. The Sherco I rode was a 300 2T. So that could very well be why I didn't mesh with it as well. It was a great bike, I just couldn't get comfortable on it easily. I nearly bought a Sherco 250 2T before my first Beta but with the inconsistency of Sherco in Canada and how they're always changing importers I wen't with the Italian brand. I'm really enjoying them and just ordered what will be my third Beta in a row!
@@MyLifeIsSetApart Yeah I really love my Beta too. Had many brands but not sure I have been on any other bike that lugs like a Beta. I watched in interview of the head of Sherco and they are going all in for N.AM market. This is why they dumped that last distributor. I bet you start seeing more Shercos soon with a legitimate dealer network. I have to tell you that I am no where close to a dealer and it has not been an issue. There are some good dealers I can order from on the internet.
I have an opportunity to grab up at '21 300se right now with 300hrs on it. Im not worried about having to turn a little wrench. But, do i have to take it to a dealer for them to hook it up after the top-end rebuild? Also, is there a kickstart add on i can buy for it? Coming from the aircooled world, im nervous to get something that doesnt have a kickstart for those, FUBAR situations.
Awesome vid. Some of the footage for me seemed blurry. Something change? Or maybe it’s a crap connection. 🤷♂️ I’ve rode both. Personally prefer the xcw better. Seems more refined. That low grunt is def noticeable tho. Both sweet bikes nonetheless. Keep rippin my man
Pretty dark in the forested sections and steam coming off the melting ground in the clear cuts. Otherwise looks clear to me, check to make sure you are watching in 1080p.
"winter riding here" lol that awesome! kind of jealous. got a couple of feet of snow here. Greg what do you use for a go pro mount? just got the new hero 9 and have had a go pro since the hero 3 lol
Great review, the Sherco seems to have some really awesome enduro prowess ...but I'm a bigger rider and don't think I want a bike that feels smaller than KTM
I'm 6'3" and about 190lbs. I just picked up the 2021 SE 300 thinking it would be easier to make it fit like my KTM and I would get used to it. I have about 11 hours and struggling to feel comfortable on it. Other than that, I bet the bike would be amazing if it felt like it fit me. It lugs, and the suspension is awesome.
@@kikopkau At 6' 235lbs I've tried out a couple of smaller frame bikes and I never felt stable on them, they feel like riding with nothing under me to grip on too,
@@kikopkau ... I wouldn't give up on it I were you, Ki... The bike has too much awesomeness, I'm sure you'll jive with it sooner or later. Me, I'm just old & crunchy and don't like change ..... 😁
What are your thoughts on the clutch lever feel on this bike? Going through that single-trail, the bike looks like it changes direction really well, smooth! Beautiful trail, and some great riding too mate!
The seat height is about the same as my 250xc. As far as reliability, depends on who you ask. Some will say they have had issues while others go 100’s of hours trouble free. I know the 2020’s had some problems with the coils going bad but that’s been fixed this year.
I think the million dollar question is...Most of us are thinking that you are comparing this bike to a newer KTM/ Husky 300? When you make the comments of how light the bike feels or how well it handles...are you just saying in general (because its a 300) or are you comparing that to a KTM/ Husky? I had a '21 Husky TX300, and I'm very curious on how it compares to the SE300.
It'd be awesome if you threw in the bike weights too. Even if you're just rolling it onto a bathroom scale or two as long as you're using the same scales and procedure in each test/review I wouldn't care that you didn't have a pricey heavy duty one. It's the comparison between bikes that I'm most interested in.
You have to DM PNW for details. He likes to not mention the riding areas on the channel to respect local riders. Let's jus say that this location is in Southern BC within an hour or two of Vancouver :)
Sherecos are like the Lamy of the dirt bike world now. Id be afraid to fall over and scratch up a new 10K dirt bike. Been riding since 1980, doubtful ill ever buy new again. I was a good rider, these prices are insane though. Its now a rich mans sport that has a hard time attracting young riders...gee, wonder why? Envious you have no winter snow in ...BC(?). Summer rain keep it muddy all summer though?
I have the same question... since you've ridden both, interested to know which you would buy. Dealer has both and I'm going to pick up either the Gas Gas or Sherco this week...
Compared to the KTM the Gas Gas has different clutch (better), brakes, flywheel, mapping and suspension combo. Ride them back to back, they feel different.
KTM owns WP, they will never use competing brands suspension on their bikes. You say KTM is the best but WP sucks in the same sentence. I feel suspension is a huge part in rating how good a bike is.
@@PNWEnduro well i saw wp suspension in some shercos ,so i thought its was a partnerships, but actually wp has good suspension like cone valve it’s very expensive beyond my budget.
@@PNWEnduro Agree, how can a bike be the best ever, yet suspension it uses sucks.. All bikes i love, have good suspension.. I rode a WR 450 for s month, at first bikes was terrible, once set up for me, it was awesome !
@@mixalis6168 Yes a lot of riders really like the AER forks, myself included but I could probably ride a blown out '95 RM 250 and like the forks! Keeping the air pressure at recommended pressure for your weight and backing the clickers wayyyyyy off is the ticket for many riders on the AER. I have two first hand recommendations for Kreft but that is more $$$$ than I have right now for suspension.
I have a 20 sherco 300 and you barely notice the vibration plus I feel like the counter balancer takes a little off the low end grunt of an engine. Not a big deal at all
Is stock but rejected! Mix fuel is from last decade! And vibre like shit, after 2 hours don’t feel foots and hands! Next year, 2022 model gone a be conter-balance! 🤦♂️

New brake pads I think.
Thanks for posting the review on Throttle Junkies, great review!
Thanks bud!
Amazing to be able to live near these trails and ride pretty much year round.
We are spoiled.
The Rubbermaid Vibe test. Love it!
Nice review of the Sherco, thanks!
Nice review. Love KTM but nice to have other options. Thanks man!
Man the Sherco’s look mint! 👍🏻 especially on those sweet PNW trails.
They are the best looking bikes right now imo.

Great review, thanks.
Curious how the turning radius is like? Any clearance issues with the radiators? Removable steering stops?
Turning radius is pretty good, not quite as sharp as the KTM but still good. No clearance issues and yes removable steering stops.

could you give some input between the sherco and beta 200rr, as far as handling and nimbleness in single track ? thanks and keep up the great videos
The 200rr feels light due to it being a small bore but the turning radius is terrible so that make it feel less nimble.
Ok, when are you picking up yours? Sweet ride, how was the clutch modulation compared to your bike? Absolute sweet bike 🏆
Clutch felt fine to me. Perhaps slightly harder pull.
What pegs you running on your Sherco? You mentioned you would switch if you purchased
Flo Motorsports.
Pretty sweet bike!

Wow so nice on the trails.
Thank you. Any chance you could get your hands on the 4-stroke version as a comparison?
The dirtbike channel has several videos wirh the 300 4T
I’d love to try the 300sef, not many around though.
Did you compare Sherco steering geometry with the XCW and TE?
Maybe that's why it's feels shorter and more nimble.
I still think ktm/husky turn sharper at full lock.
@@PNWEnduro - No, I meant rake and trail geometry
I have not looked up the specs but I’m sure they would be different.
Map update you mentioned? It's a carb bike. Not possible to adjust fueling like that. Map updates on say a KTM TPi bike for sure.
These come with GET ecus that are programmable
It seems behaviour - smaller frame and suspensiins, very similar to the beta 300?
Built to gnarly single tracks?
This is a great bike for gnarly single track.
Are we going to see you riding a sherco in the near future?
You may find out soon!
Question for you, you rode the 250SE earlier, what do you think of the power in the 250 vs the 300? Thanks!
I prefer the grunt of the 300 but that 250 motor is really fun to ride.
What is your opinion about this bike vs Betta 300 2021? Sherco are better or not???
"winter riding here" lol that awesome! kind of jealous. got a couple of feet of snow here. Greg what do you use for a go pro mount? just got the new hero 9 and have had a go pro since the hero 3 lol
I use the ProShot chin mount.
what oil and premix ratio are you using on the sherco? looks like a real fun ride and interesting bike
Not my bike, I think they run 50 or 60:1
The overall consensus on Sherco forum and FB is to run 50:1. Castrol Power 1 comes highly recommended
Have you tried to Chris Birch Astra series yet? If so what bend did you prefer
Yes, this Sherco had the Birch series. I liked them as well, not sure which I prefer.

I don't post locations publicly but if you contact me on social media I can let you know.
@@PNWEnduro alright thanks for the info
3:10 is the map update for the 2 and 4 stroke or just 2
Not sure if it’s for the 4t as well, I’ll have to ask the dealer.
Thinking about getting one, one guy I talked to said they are tall and have reliability issues.
What's your take?
Thanks
The seat height is about the same as my 250xc. As far as reliability, depends on who you ask. Some will say they have had issues while others go 100’s of hours trouble free. I know the 2020’s had some problems with the coils going bad but that’s been fixed this year.
Did you hit Sherco Power trail on that Sherco?
If you were to own this sherco or the gasgas ec300 which would you choose?
Both good choices, you will find out what I picked soon!
So will this be your next bike? Seems to be a much better package over Beta and KTM.
