Sherco has announced its premium range of trials bikes is heading our way, with the three-model line-up also seeing a 125cc model come to Australia for the first time.
Boasting new graphics and a new red cylinder head, the 2022 Sherco 125 ST Factory, 2022 Sherco 250 ST Factory and 2022 Sherco 300 ST Factory are packed with high-spec ‘Factory’ gear, like Morad aluminium rims, Tech forks, a Reiger shock, S3 Hard Rock footpegs, Michelin tyres, Braktec master cylinder and a Galfer brake disc.
All three models are based on the same tubular chromoly frame, while the 250 and 300 also now feature a taller second gear.
