Short from front to back. Wicked Playful. Flickable. Lively. These are great ways to describe the 2020 Sherco 300 SEF Factory when riding it.

That is some of the most beautiful single track I've ever seen. I'm really envious and living vicariously through you. Thanks for sharing your vids!
Bro, you are so blessed to be able to ride such great bikes on such great trails! Enjoy!
Love that trail. The word you were searching for (responsive) to rider input.
Kyle I was going to get the sherco 300 two stroke but the dealer talked me into getting a tm instead! So far I love it!
would be great to see Kyle review a tm.
I have almost 200 hours on a 2019 TM 300en and its been a dream to ride. What bike did you end up getting?
Yep, you hit on it in this video. Got to let that little motor rev more and it looses that underwhelming feeling you described in the first video. You can't ride it like a 300 2 stroke. You have to ride it more like a 150-200cc 2 stroke, a little clutch and some rpms. Then, like you said, "I could get used to this." But it will still lug you around if you're tired and want to be little lazy or take it easy, unlike the small bore 2t's.
Exactly right.
Lots of power up the top for hauling arse, enough torque to lug when needed. They're a great engine.
Even better when updated to Sherco's latest maps at a dealer.
So smooth 👌
Exactly the same adjectives I used to describe the first ride - easy turning, light, flickable. Much easier turning and shorter feel than my Beta 300 RE.
"Pretty darn fickable"...."We've got a lively one". Love the Scottish accent you threw in there🤣 Sick bike, I'd pay full price too...If I could afford one😂 Love from Utah
the 2013-or newer used models are pretty cheap,and the engine etc are the same exept front suspension
The trails look fabulous and tame enough for my skills to tackle!
Awesome videos brother! What Gopro/camera are you using? the image stability is great! I just broke my foot a couple weeks ago riding and had to have surgery, and your content has been keeping me on my toes! Honestly inspiring! Cheers from Alaska!
since this is your job i know everyone loves to ride but sometimes when it becomes a job not a fun hobby do ya get bored of riding been watching along time gotta give ya credit on your controlled breathing to plus ya ever get nervous riding so close to some of those cliffs
Heading to Colorado to ride for the next week, coming from Minnesota I’m very excited 😂
Flickable is what i wanted in dirtbike just as in trials bike. It makes pivot turn easier on tighter space. It's a plus for enduro riders riding thru big rocks.
I like how quiet the bike is. Much quieter than the Yamaha you just recently gave away.
Kyle, each bike you test should have a special intro graphic... in the beginning of your videos shows specs, dimensions rulered out, dry and wet weight, cost, hp#s, hp and torque charts, list of top mods, their cost, etc... 5 or six smaller photos lined up on the left of the image showing the bike in action... Then offer that as a poster we can buy from you!!!
Whoever did the chainsaw work on that trail needs to learn how to cut that case/knee/foot ruining deadfall a little further back from the edge of the trail. Once the weeds get tall those can end someone’s day and maybe their riding career. You’re making the cut anyways...just do it a foot into the weeds.
Yeah I mentioned that in an earlier video. I simply don't understand why they don't cut back by another foot or so, it's no extra effort.
We call em forest chickens and they taste really good😂
Amazing
Whats the name of this awesome trail?
I want to ride it
Love the title!!
Nice bike
Where are you riding? I know you ride primarily further North in the Wasatch. I Live in Las Vegas and ride near Mammoth Creek, Utah quite a bit, but there is very little single track. Most trails have been heavily "bombed out" by SXS, or riding in Forest roads. I'm looking for good single tracks where I can disperse camp nearby. Thank you for your help finding some better areas to ride.
Kyle ! Please we need a review of the 2021 Factory 300 2 stroke!
I'm curious what the updated 2021 2 stroke Sherco with a counterbalanced engine feels like now.
Will let you know in 2 weeks when my one turns up 😁👌
Can't wait 🥳
anxious to hear a high desert report
Wr450 to yz250 to now either a sef 300 or yz250fx? Hare scramble racer with some mx track days and hard endure days
Hey Kyle, i know this is off topic but have you heard about the recent legal problem with patreon? I know it’s a revenue stream for you and want you to be aware they might be in some trouble causing a disruption to your income. Look into it and prepare yourself. Love the channel dude
Cool bikes, rare to see here in NZ
Yip not many about i have 17 factory Edition and man it just eats up the fire breaks and they are steep and rutted I love it
They are getting more and more popular here in aus. Good to see something other than a ktm lol
Grant I’m thinking about switching from ktm to Sherco for my next bike
Does it have as tight a turning radius as ktm
It looks and sounds like the 4T Sherco 300 seems down on power as compared to the Yamaha YZ250FX. You looked faster and more comfortable on the YZ250FX.
Hey Kyle I am wondering wot the gear on the 2020 is can you let me know please
Sprocket sizes please i mean thank you
Standard is 14/49 on the 2020
Is there a huge gap between in newer 4 and 2 strokes in lugging capability at low RPMs?
Yes theres no comparison 2 stroke lugs waaaaay better
Singletrack Marc 819 what
He asked if there is a gap between 4 stroke and 2 stroke lugging capabilities and I replied yes there is no comparison 2 strokes lug waaaaay better
theres a reason yoh see mainly 2 strokes racing enduro and hard enduro. they are a million times easier to ride at low rpms. a big four stroke motor doesnt react as quick to a fast clutch pull in lugging situations and die out. you can run a 2 stroke to the ragged edges of dying and grab the clutch with no gas. it comes right back to life.
Yes, 2 strokes lug like tractors.
So no 2t no more.? Just wondering your thoughts I went from orange 350 to 300. I’ve been looking at sherco tpi scary. 😅
Sherco don't have TPI.
What's better for mixed terrains sef300 or 250fx?
It ain't a 2 stroke.... all I need to say Kyle.
Take it through some 2-stroke terrain and report back, if you make it back
No worries at all to ride with 2T bikes all day, you just ride them differently.
These are actually lighter than Shercos own 2T model.
Yea well I don’t think any hard enduro riders will be switching to 4t any time soon. Stalling out and engine braking get old pretty quick. Then there’s the extra heat, which leads to more battery drain from a fan trying to keep it cool in addition to the e-start every time it dies. I’ve obviously had my share of 4t’s, and for where i like to ride they’re useless. No matter how it’s ridden
@@orijinalgamesta9738
Need to brush up on a different brand of bike mate.
No, they aren't the first choice for racing hard Enduro, but we ride that sort of terrain near us.
The Sherco has a 220w stator and have never suffered a flat battery in 200+ hours of riding them, despite always running the headlight.
As I said, no flame out issues in the Sherco tuning like lots of other brands. You can stall the engine, but it won't just pop and die when you open the throttle.
On the engine braking, it's perfect to help control the bike on steep decent where the 2t riders come down gathering speed with the rear wheel locked.
All that said, I'm about to take delivery of a 2021 2T 300SE Factory just for a change after 3 years on the 300 4T.
I'm not one eyed and can appreciate all bikes for what they are 👍
Dangermouse says you.. and good luck with the Sherco. There’s two of em in our group, I’ll pass. And holla at me when a 4t wins WESS 😂
Dangermouse idk how i missed this before,,,so you’re saying a 4t will descend a steep hill in a more controlled manner than a 2t because it has more engine braking? Yea i got that screenshot, thank you so much. And from your description of Sherco’s “anti flame out technology” Honda beat em to it back in the 80s with an XR200. So brush up on your own knowledge. BTW, dont drop that new 300 lol, Sherco plastics are made with the cheapest brittle material they could find
Sucks when the trails aren't flowy...so boring
I like how you've bitched about having to shift too often before but when talking about 4 strokes vs 2 strokes at around 3:40 in this video you mention that it's one of the reasons you like a 2 stroke more so which is it do you like shifting a lot? Also I've only ever noticed having to shift sooner on a smaller cc bike so idk whether to respect your opinion anymore I remember you were batching so much about it in that one video I had to shut it off i got tired of hearing it lol
Holy shizz balls dude! Kyle’s Scottish accents are almost as good as his catch phrases! Sorry Kyle, just hackin on ya. Sherco looks good so far. It almost seems like there’s something locked away in that bike that is looking to be realized and she’s hiding it behind a thinly veiled curtain. Too dramatic?
Yes, it's the quiet insert that is gagging the exhaust. It's like you put a Covid mask on the thing and turned into a wussy germaphobe.
@@TorqueDorque
There are map updates to load at the dealer which make them even better.
The quiet core makes no measurable difference on a dyno, we checked on my own bike when it was new
@@Danger_mouse Really? That is good to know - thanks for sharing. I just purchased mine in early July so assuming I have the updated maps. Do you have any Dyno information you can share? What are the ft lbs of torque and HP?
@@TorqueDorque
Map update would depend on the build date of the bike.
The updated maps were, from memory, sent out to the dealers in late February. Not sure when they would have been loading them on the production line.
I had a screenshot of the dyno graph on my old phone... but it has died 😔😔
The shop was a Sherco / Kawasaki store and they supported several Kawasaki MX race bikes.
I remember the dyno techs comments that the 300 Sherco was the same top end as their race 250, but more everywhere else on the way up the curve.
I certainly had no issues keeping up with my mates on 450s and 300 2T bikes in single tracks.
@@Danger_mouse thanks again. I had my share of 2T 300s, BUT feeling my age so going to a smoother machine, less hit is working well for me. If I critiqied my own riding, whole the 300 2T is fun, I'm not sure if I was all that efficient. I would break traction on that back wheel all the time because I loved to rev it.
That’s got to be the easiest trail you have ever ridden
Hi I’m 180 pounds and I’m looking to get a cry 150rb soy think I am to heavy
Yeh your going to have to try that again in English.
Am I to heavy for that bike
Dev C for what bike?
@@devc4215 No. It will haul around a 180lb rider no problem
Tony Miller thanks
So playful
Excellent vid as always. Was it just me or is that thing quiet??
All the European 4 strokes are less thumperish. Super smooth.
There's a quiet insert in the the Akra muffler.
Sounds super loud with it out but it only makes noise.... not more power.
