I owned a Sherco Trials motorcycle for about 5 years.....and I absolutely loved it.  I sold it last year as my 58 year old body was beginning to complain about it.  I sold it last year to finance the purchase of the ST1100 that I bought so my wife could go on rides with me.  I really enjoyed the time I owned the bike, and I did learn a lot about balance and control.

While I never got above the NOVICE level, I really was amazed how nimble and maneuverable the bike was, and how much traction it could get on steep slopes.  The rear tire only has 4 pounds of air in it, and it sticks like glue as long as your feet are on the pegs....if you put your foot on the ground and take that weight of the rear wheel...the traction disappears!

These guys are the world Champions......they are incredible!

This is the bike I owned.  A Sherco 320cc 4 stroke.  I miss it. :'(
