| SHERCO REVISES ITS 2T MODEL RANGE FOR
2007 | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Sherco continues to wager
like no other brand, on the 2T technology and develop that
technology in actual competition which is directly transferred to
the production models. | |
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
In contrast to other brands, Sherco continues working on the
development of the 2T Trials models, the most appreciated by the
Trials enthusiasts, the 2T is the most efficient and most
competitive option in the trials market and the one chosen most by
competitive riders.
Fruit of the full implication of the
competitiveness of the 2T in actual competition is borne by the
outstanding results that have been obtained by Albert Cabestany in
the World Trials Championship and in the Spanish Trials
Championship. The 2T has demonstrated that it is still very
competitive in the highest levels of competition. The 2006
competition year has resulted in several significant improvements to
the engine and chassis.
PXC, the Sherco Trials Technical
Department which is directed by Josep Rovira Paxau, had been
responsible for developing the changes implemented in the
competition machines and then reproducing them in the production
models for the enjoyment of all the Sherco
fans. | |

| Improvements in motor and chassis, direct
by-products of the official motorcycle ridden in competition by
Albert Cabestany. | |

|
|
In the motor, the work that has been done results in achieving an
even greater usable power band without compromising reliability. The
actual thermodynamics have been improved. These engine improvements
affect the 2.5 and 2.9 models only.
A significant amount of work
has been done on the chassis of the motorcycle which is common to
all of the trials models from the 125cc up. Many of the components
have been optimized for the best possible performance and highest
quality level with efficient operation and reduced weight as an end
result. The new chassis incorporates geometry changes that have been
developed on the competition machine of Albert Cabestany. All of
these chassis improvements are common to the compete range of Sherco
“adult” motorcycles including the 1.25, 2.5 and 2.9.
The launch
of the new “07” Trials Models will take place immediately after the
Andorra World Championship. | |
