12:14 - Run starting an efi bike. Having to touch the starter button on roll starts is a common EFI bike quirk. The ECU needs to know that you want it to start and needs to be 'woken'. The alternator will charge up the capacitor and the engine will start in the event of a flat battery. You need to get over your fear of the lack of a kick starter. I've owned two bikes now without a kick start including my new 300 SEF-R 6 DAYS Sherco and have never, in 340 hrs of riding, needed to kick start them. (you don't have a crank handle on your car, it's not required, same for the kick start) - unless it's an earlier KTM with the self destruct starter. 👍
I've got a 2013 and it is so good. Better than any of the 4 ktms I had had at that point in both handling and power. Heard they have even more power now. Good bike go buy one you won't be disappointed.
Great review on the Sherco. There's alot of great bikes many of us US guys are unaware of because they haven't really made alot of headway into the US market...yet I know you working on getting the Beta. Can't wait to get your take on it. so many times I hear you talk about shortcomings on other bikes. One of the things that sold me on the Beta was how well it was equipped. E start, kick backup, extra wide billet foot pegs, full factory F2F exhaust, billet triples, map switch, push button seat removal, rear fender grab handles, easy access battery and air filter, fully wired for street legal including horn minus plugging in the turn signals to the pre wired harness, and the list goes on.. My only complaint, the seat is like a 2x6. but hey, it gave me more incentive to be up on the pegs like I should. Thanks for the awesome videos as always.
I know. I feel very fortunate, i live near a former Husaberg dealer in Portland and an importer for Shercos in Bellevue WA. There is also a Beta importer here somewhere in either OR or WA. I have seen a Beta, rare birdy to see on the trail. I don't know if there is a GasGas or TM place around here.
i have tried that bike here in mexico and the engine does feel pretty good with the power delivery ,i felt really good twisting the throttle and keeping it on the high revs.
If you need full wrap enduro guards, (which I think would be good for the tight trail riding you do) I would highly recommend Cycra's probend handguards. I have these on my bike, and they are great. They'll save you many broken levers.
BTW, The list is based on the 300rr race edition, it also has an easily adjustable power valve and sachs closed cartridge forks which felt very stiff at first but after 30 hrs they are awesome. Don't cut yourself short if you can at all avoid it, go for the race edition. If you can't find one local, message me and I'll get you my contact to the dealer I went through and got a great deal.
I know there's a plethora of bikes on your list to hopefully work through, but take a look at the swm 300, speedy works bought the old husqvarna factory and are pumping out bikes much like the old husky's at a budget price. I don't think they're even being imported yet but an interesting bike.
Regarding the Sherco's 260 wet weight vs the KTM XC's 235 wet weight, I wonder if a better comparison is a KTM XC-W (or EXC, in 2017-18). The Sherco 300SEF has the lights, wiring harness, and a 220 watt stator and that equates to weight. Take the 2017 KTM 250 EXC-F's dry weight of 236 (generous) pounds and add 15-pounds (two and a half gallons) of fuel and they'r in the same weight class (minus those silly KTM mirrors). At the same time, the Sherco will leave an EXC in its dust. Perhaps the Sherco is more like a bored and stroked and Euro mapped EXC (that actually turns). Weight wise, perhaps the more racy (non-lighted) Sherco 300 SCR would be a little closer to the XC-F ?
While not sold on the idea of not having a back-up kicker (the current trend), if I were to purchase one, I would buy a rechargeable 12-volt lithium-ion back-up battery and carry it in my pack.
Clay Stuckey has always been a stand up individual. I was disappointed with the way GasGas management handled him! But looks like he has done way better for himself.
I think the ignition circuit of the bike isn't energized till the starter is thumbed. Yamaha has a similar system on their YZ***FX bikes. Since there is no key or run/off switch, the ignition would always be on unless there was some system that turned it on or off in the ECU.
Hey Kyle this is Rob from South Carolina actually just moved here from Southern California went from Desert to Woods riding big difference they don't have a KTM dealer up here so I had to drive to Georgia to get a KTM don't quite understand why they don't have a KTM dealer out here especially when you have all these Woods to ride him perfect for a KTM after watching your video on the Circo seems like a nice bike but I agree with you on these manufacturers not putting skid plate and not having a Kickstarter but both of my KTM that I've had have had kickstarter's I have a 2017 xc-w 250 by far the best bike I've ever owned went back to this two stroke after years of writing a four stroke and I would never go back to a four stroke still waiting to hear your opinion on the XC w250 you've done a lot of X sees but no X CW's after talking to several people I ended up going with the xc-w and one of those that I spoke to was Malcolm Smith Jr thanks for the great videos keep up the good work
Really great bike, I'm in loved it... How many hours do you have on the Sherco? Keep going with the updates every 30h so we can know what kind of issues we may deal with...
When your bump starting it if you bounce on the back of your seat as you release the clutch you’ll push you’re tire into the ground to give it traction to spin the motor over. I’ve had issues like that on a measly 125 and 150.
Sherco is popular in making Trials bikes so not a new company, about 20 years old now, but ya, not as popular to dirtbikes as they are known in Trials.
Excellent review. Oil changes look like a PITA, but not the end of the world. I am looking at 2018 300. My next dirt bike is gonna be my last one. Any idea on engine rebuild parts? I ride in tight single track and way too many rocks. My current bike is a KTM 350 sxf and it’s way too much. Thanks
If dirtbike companies are willing to remove the kick start to drop 2lbs they're for sure not gonna put HD tubes in bikes. They'd rather they're weight #'s be lower... unfortunately
Hey Kyle,, i am currently working with Clay to possible get a demo 2017 SEF-R 300 racing 4 stroke. How is the power delivery? is it like a light switch off and on in the tight technical stuff? or is it smooth, this is my main concern. i currently ride a Beta 300rr, and it's a awesome bike. i probably would keep both. how has the reliability been, and fuel mileage so far?
Hey Kyle I ride in Switzerland a Honda crf 250l. And now my radiator is gonne. The bike cost at new price 4970CHF. And for the new radiator they will over 700CHF. I find that strategy from honda very bad😕Sorry for the bad english😂
bhuizer5 dont think so, 2017 ktm 500exc is 109kg = 239.8pounds dry, add 10 pounds for the fuel = 250 pounds +/-, sherco is 260 pounds from Kyle measure, 260-250=10
The KTM EXC only holds 10 lbs of fuel? We're grasping at straws here, just saying 10 lbs lighter for the 500 EXC is a stretch. I bet the 500 feels like a tank on the trail compared to the Sherco, that's a lot of bike.
The sealed lead acid battery isn't a negative in my mind. I could lose the couple of pounds you save in a weekend of riding. The lithium batteries, while lighter and more powerful, need a special charger and don't perform in the cold weather. Lots of guys running lithium are kick starting their bikes in the frigid cold while folks running the good ol sealed lead acid just thumb the starter. About the only caveat is stay with yuasa brand batteries. They last many years compared to no name Chinese replacement batteries.
Fireballsocal I used a lithium battery in the past and in temps under 40°f it would crank slow for a time or two then be normal. ie push button engine turns over a couple times, let up, wait 10 seconds and push it again and it would turn over a little easier, wait, then try again and it would start. usually only the first time in the morning. Flawless otherwise. That was a ktm 530exc.
Fireballsocal can't remember where I read it but apparently you thumb the starter button on a cold morning and it will warm the battery (lithium) Wait for 30 secs then fire it up. I have earth X lithium and it has been flawless over 4 years.
As I understand it, it's not the trickle charge that's the issue but the desulfation on many of the modern smart chargers designed for lead acid, coupled with the charging demands of lithium. The desulfation mode will damage the lithium ion, not a big deal if you are just using a dumb charger. Worse though is that lithium likes to be between 60% and 80% charged. A standard charger will try to top off the battery. A lithium charger will keep the lithium battery happy. Again, not a big deal for most riders as you have seen from your experience.
Been curious about the sefr for a while but leaning beta at the moment 390rr 300rr or possibly xtrainer. Also hoping you'll get a hold of one of the new Husky te 300fi when they're available may stick with my 14 Husaberg fe501 till we see were those fi 2ts land.
Great vid! in 2017 no need kick... the cars come without kick and most of street bikes come without kick... its just old thinking... second the clutch lever is the same like ktm no need special parts
I have been stranded with a bad battery twice on different bikes in the past. Once, on a cold morning, the bike wouldn’t start and we had to pull it with a tie down off the back of the truck since we were in sand making bump starting a cold 4 stroke bike almost impossible. I have also had friends in my group with bad electrical connections where the e-start wouldn’t work after they got dirty, while we are 50 miles away from the truck. On one ride without a kickstarter, two of us worked for 30 minutes to bump start a bike. Keep in mind that all of these bikes were less than 2 years old. I can see that the industry is moving this way, for various reasons. Part of it is that the bike manufacturers don’t realize how far away from civilization we are taking these bikes. We aren’t at the track just a block from the truck! I just think it is a mistake to remove them given the real world experience that I have had.
Justin Bova it's a non issue. you can bump start it. and there is no reason to have a Kickstarter system with shercos. their starter motors are bulletproof. you can also purchase a little jump starter for the more paranoid people out there.
E-start doesn't feel as good though. It's so damn pleasing to give a solid kick from tdc and have a bike just fire up. I'll NEVER buy an offroad bike without a kick starter.
Justin Bova I've got over 65 hours on mine and have never had a problem starting it. I'm still on the original battery. I've also bump started it several times without an issue.
You pay for these? Wouldn't it be more accurate that all the people that help you and give you money are actually paying for the bikes too? Might want to clarify.
If you want to put it that way, then I'd have to also say the my full time employer at my day job pays for them :) I pay for them. 100% brother. The money I earn on RUclips and Patreon IS THE HARDEST money I have ever earned in my life. That is a fact. It's only a few dollars per day. I treat this like a part time job after hours. I put about 20 hours per week into this on top of my full time job. It is a sacrifice.
Cbr 600 but to add, in the off road world they're kinda like between the 750s and liter bikes of the street bike world with 450 and 500s being of similar stature in the off road world to liter bikes of the road world.
Man you should be sponsored by KTM by now! If I were you I'd try to get a serious bike brand sponsor that suits your riding, because YOU SELL BIKES plain and simple!
They only have so much money, so they sponsor racers at the highest levels of the sport. Despite that, they must realise that we are (35-60 year old men with disposable income) their bread and butter when it comes to sales. Maybe you'd have more luck with Yamaha or Honda. They're both literally 10x larger companies with image problems in the off-road space. I'd think Honda would be all over the family friendly, responsible riding stuff on your channel.

Other EFI equipped bikes "wake up" with movement. My '10 FE 450 Husaberg is like that. It bump starts just fine w/o having to tap the starter button.
I've got a 2013 and it is so good. Better than any of the 4 ktms I had had at that point in both handling and power. Heard they have even more power now. Good bike go buy one you won't be disappointed.

my 2005 sherco 450 has a kickstart... lol 12 years ago they got it right. I'm rebuilding the top end on mine right now.
That sound is medicine for the ears
BTW,
The list is based on the 300rr race edition, it also has an easily adjustable power valve and sachs closed cartridge forks which felt very stiff at first but after 30 hrs they are awesome.

A street legal version would be awesome! Beta 390 or hopefully SWM 300 next.
Great review Kyle. Thanks for all the hours you put in to bring that to us.
Good review! Had a look at the Sherco dealer last weekend. Very impressed with the bikes
The kickstarter was never removed. The smaller Sherco 4Ts never had them. My 2009 did't have one.
I know there's a plethora of bikes on your list to hopefully work through, but take a look at the swm 300, speedy works bought the old husqvarna factory and are pumping out bikes much like the old husky's at a budget price.
I don't think they're even being imported yet but an interesting bike.
The brakes levers comes the same like ktm.. you can order everywhere , also the wp component and the brakes
Regarding the Sherco's 260 wet weight vs the KTM XC's 235 wet weight, I wonder if a better comparison is a KTM XC-W (or EXC, in 2017-18).

Weight wise, perhaps the more racy (non-lighted) Sherco 300 SCR would be a little closer to the XC-F ?
He loves KTM's too much.
Wr 250 f comes with a few of the things sherco does, like skidplate stock with the bike, trip meter, and such

You do the best dirt bike reviews on RUclips. I'd really like to see a 150 xc w and a like older 125 or 250 mx to enduro conversion
We'll have to see about that bike. It's high on my priority list, but I have a Sherco 2 stroke and a Beta 2 stroke on my list before the KTM 150 XC-W
Hey Kyle this is Rob from South Carolina actually just moved here from Southern California went from Desert to Woods riding big difference they don't have a KTM dealer up here so I had to drive to Georgia to get a KTM don't quite understand why they don't have a KTM dealer out here especially when you have all these Woods to ride him perfect for a KTM after watching your video on the Circo seems like a nice bike but I agree with you on these manufacturers not putting skid plate and not having a Kickstarter but both of my KTM that I've had have had kickstarter's I have a 2017 xc-w 250 by far the best bike I've ever owned went back to this two stroke after years of writing a four stroke and I would never go back to a four stroke still waiting to hear your opinion on the XC w250 you've done a lot of X sees but no X CW's after talking to several people I ended up going with the xc-w and one of those that I spoke to was Malcolm Smith Jr thanks for the great videos keep up the good work
My 2008 Husqvarna WR250 has a seat that comes off like this one. Very easy to remove!
Really great bike, I'm in loved it... How many hours do you have on the Sherco? Keep going with the updates every 30h so we can know what kind of issues we may deal with...
The 2019 Factory editions now come with Kayaba suspension front and rear. 👍
Thank you very much for all the detail, excellent review.
Kyle, I think the issue with bump starting is the fuel pump. Tapping the starter will wake up the FI. I could be wrong though.
Lovely bike but couldn’t agree more with your opinion, great videos mate!
When your bump starting it if you bounce on the back of your seat as you release the clutch you’ll push you’re tire into the ground to give it traction to spin the motor over. I’ve had issues like that on a measly 125 and 150.
You look like Spider-Man from the back with that gear on
Nice review Kyle. Thank you.
There's no return throttle cable on there, no wonder it works so easy.

I would like to see how this compares to the KTM 250XCF.
Ktm seats only have 1 bolt to take the seat off but that system is way easier still 👍🏻
That dash computer is identical to what comes on the husky TE and KTM Xcw and possible some beta models
Hey Kyle,,
i am currently working with Clay to possible get a demo 2017 SEF-R 300 racing 4 stroke.

Nice video dude! Do you think the bike can handle 65-70 mph speeds on road/highway without problems?
Nice video! Keep it up!
How is this bike holding up after 1 year of riding? Engine? Bearings? Plastics etc? I think this bike is awesome but I am still skeptical.
Hey Kyle
I ride in Switzerland a Honda crf 250l. And now my radiator is gonne. The bike cost at new price 4970CHF. And for the new radiator they will over 700CHF. I find that strategy from honda very bad😕Sorry for the bad english😂
great review! will you review and get your tought on the ktm 500 in the future? 10 pounds lighter than this sherco!
cadwarrior i wanna see 500 exc review too!
I don't have it in my plans for the next 6-8 months... Could be later though.
10 lbs lighter with a full tank of fuel? I think you are getting wet weight (w/fuel) and dry weight mixed up.
bhuizer5 dont think so, 2017 ktm 500exc is 109kg = 239.8pounds dry, add 10 pounds for the fuel = 250 pounds +/-, sherco is 260 pounds from Kyle measure, 260-250=10

hey man you should do a review of that stand if you haven't already.
Are you going to review a beta RR? I've got a 17 300 standard, I love it. Looking forward to your review if you do one
Waiting for you to test a Beta, they also have one button release for the seat.
Beta coming soon.
That's cool, no return throttle cable.
Great review.
Many Shercos in europe...
Wich cam do you use for your films?
The sealed lead acid battery isn't a negative in my mind. I could lose the couple of pounds you save in a weekend of riding.

Yeah, it's the cold the lithium doesn't like. In colder weather, they are even more temperamental I've heard.
I charge mine with a normal charger. As long as its not on trickle charge you should be fine
Fireballsocal can't remember where I read it but apparently you thumb the starter button on a cold morning and it will warm the battery (lithium) Wait for 30 secs then fire it up. I have earth X lithium and it has been flawless over 4 years.

Cool bike! I love exotics
Great! Keep it up!
I think i might buy myself a Sherco SEF-R 300
After this i totaly changed my mind cause i ride a yz250f 🤷♂️but it has enduro stuff on it
i know this is a dirt bike channel but how do you think this bike would handle as a supermoto on the street
beta 300rr incoming? great review.
@dirtbikechannel/ kyle brotherson, the beta 390 or the 300RR would be killer!
Beta coming soon.
Great videos. I'd love to see your take on dual sports. converted or factory.
you should look into the beta 390rrs and the swm sr300r .
Been curious about the sefr for a while but leaning beta at the moment 390rr 300rr or possibly xtrainer. Also hoping you'll get a hold of one of the new Husky te 300fi when they're available may stick with my 14 Husaberg fe501 till we see were those fi 2ts land.
Great vid! in 2017 no need kick... the cars come without kick and most of street bikes come without kick... its just old thinking... second the clutch lever is the same like ktm no need special parts

With a 20 grams booster on the backpack you will have warranty and its cost 20-50$
totally agree, we haven't had hand cranks on cars for a while now
Love these videos!!!
no kick starter and you can't bump start it? Seems to be a huge issue to me
Justin Bova it's a non issue. you can bump start it. and there is no reason to have a Kickstarter system with shercos. their starter motors are bulletproof. you can also purchase a little jump starter for the more paranoid people out there.
E-start doesn't feel as good though. It's so damn pleasing to give a solid kick from tdc and have a bike just fire up. I'll NEVER buy an offroad bike without a kick starter.
Justin Bova I've got over 65 hours on mine and have never had a problem starting it. I'm still on the original battery. I've also bump started it several times without an issue.
Resto do you buy a car without a hand crank? While I do like a backup kicker I think they will eventually go away.
If you ride for 10 more years you will ride bikes without kickstarters. No manufacturer will have them in the future.
Another reason the KTM 2 strokes are winning. They have both.
Can you do a dirt bike collection?
My kids KTM 65 has the quick release seat like this Sherco. My KTM doesn't ;( ...not sure what KTM was thinking.
Great review! Are you going to test the Beta 300 race edition?
The only one I can get my hands on anytime soon will be the stardard edition Beta. That will be coming soon.
What is a good used price on this bike 2021?
You pay for these? Wouldn't it be more accurate that all the people that help you and give you money are actually paying for the bikes too? Might want to clarify.
If you want to put it that way, then I'd have to also say the my full time employer at my day job pays for them :) I pay for them. 100% brother. The money I earn on RUclips and Patreon IS THE HARDEST money I have ever earned in my life. That is a fact. It's only a few dollars per day. I treat this like a part time job after hours. I put about 20 hours per week into this on top of my full time job. It is a sacrifice.
Christini??? when?
When will you be doing a full review like this on the 2017 250 xc?
Good question. So busy lately with everything else. I've been wanting to branch out and do something other than Orange.
Hail to the 4 stroke!..
it kinde off looks like the have stolen parts from a 2001 husaberg??
@Dirt Bike Channel, do you recon a steering damper would be appropriate or helpful?
Some guys like to run them, but I don't like to do it anymore. Makes the bikes feel to heavy for my liking.
Better than the 125 SE? I'm stuck between the two. East coast ruts and rocks.
I tried the 2018 WR 250F but only rode around a track.
Can you buy a husky next
Have you done a review on a beta xtrAiner?
You need some seat time on a Beta RR390!
Beta 300 coming soon.
What would it 250 two-stroke be comparable to in street bike form
Eh hard to say they run high 12s in the quarter mile.
Cbr 600 but to add, in the off road world they're kinda like between the 750s and liter bikes of the street bike world with 450 and 500s being of similar stature in the off road world to liter bikes of the road world.
"Yeah it's a paid review, I paid for it!!" Lol that's a great way of putting it.
Up next, a Beta. 'Cause you haven't heard that enough already ;-)
Beta coming soon.
Nice!! Were you able to find a 300RR Race?
Unfortunately I haven't found the Race edition. I'll most likely start with the standard edition at this point.
cool
The four stroke KTMs won't kick start with a dead battery anyway. will they?
I thought sherco was a Spanish brand
fastYZR french , big into trials.
No juice, no fuel pump, you're not gonna kick start it anyway.
Look at a Beta 480rr,test that bike, than you are really smiling.....
Heres the link to Cycra's probend handguards: cycraracing.com/products/handguards/wrap-around-handguards/
Man you should be sponsored by KTM by now! If I were you I'd try to get a serious bike brand sponsor that suits your riding, because YOU SELL BIKES plain and simple!
They don't care about me. I have reached out to them. They don't care.
Dang, that's just stupid. It wouldn't take much for them to give a little since they are getting alot from you already. That's just stingey of them.
They only have so much money, so they sponsor racers at the highest levels of the sport. Despite that, they must realise that we are (35-60 year old men with disposable income) their bread and butter when it comes to sales. Maybe you'd have more luck with Yamaha or Honda. They're both literally 10x larger companies with image problems in the off-road space. I'd think Honda would be all over the family friendly, responsible riding stuff on your channel.
What a four stroke? How dare you
guarantee you tore your ACL on this bike huh ;)
Cobalt blue
another 300
