    That’s a long way to travel to get spares for the 300i

    Good one :laugh: – I left the door open didn’t I? Sherco doesn’t need any spares. Yet. All Blacks about to whip the Wallabies so gotta run!

    finally got a chance to take it out at stroud today met hoffy at the treatment plant and he took me on his 85km practice loop alot of tight single with a sprinkling of good flowing singles with some nice hill climbs,
    Its been pretty much 2 years since ive gone for a ride at stroud let alone in the bush so i was a bit anxious about how the day was going to go but i got a tell you when your riding a mountain bike with a motor it makes it a bit easier, seriously this sherco 300 was just that good from suspension to weight surprisingly the power, from being caught out a gear to high on a climb it lugged out to the top which i just wasnt expecting from a 300 4T to sailing down a steep descent with no big bike weight to make you go in an uncontrolable slide .
    As i said its the first time ive been in the bush in a couple of years ( i have been riding but doing MX, ponyxpress) and as the day went on i was getting the confidence of hitting the nasty rutted hill climbs that i havent been doing with the WP suspension doing such a great job i just having so much fun on it and at the end of the day i was feeling pretty good even though was up to nowhere near the pace of hoffy , threw him the bike to him for a while , he loved it
    if your got to believe in the product you sell ….after today im a believer
