Sherco 450 SEF-R coming this month

The '450SEF-R Factory' edition features the new generation Sherco 449.4cc DOHC, four-valve, four-stroke single cylinder engine, fed by a Synerject digital EFI.

 

The Factory models also boast full factory features like an Akarapovic exhaust system (with revised mapping to suit), DG2 double-grip seat, translucent fuel tank, solid rear brake disc, ASX bash plate and sleek factory graphics.

 

With a dry weight of 109kg and 8.5-litre fuel capacity, the Sherco 450SEF-R Factory edition is a bike which Sherco says is worth serious consideration if you 'Dare to Ride Different'.

 

Sherco Australia Brand Manager, Stephen Tuff, says the new 450 has been a long time coming and he's willing to bet it won't disappoint.

 

"We're taking our new 450 to every Sherco ride day we have planned around the country, so if you're curious, then make some time to get along to the ride day and give it a go - you can find the details on our website," Tuff said.

 

All models feature tool-less air-filter access and quality components, like Brembo brakes and a Trail Tech computer.

 

Dual-position billet triple clamps and reversible, off-set handlebar mounts are also standard, which deliver a wide range of adjustment, so the 450 SEF-R is sure to please even the fussiest rider setup requirements.

 

"The Factory edition isn't just another 450. The turning ability and agility of the bike will make it the envy of its competitors," Tuff says.

 

A strong, yet smooth powerplant is transferred to the ground via a 6-speed transmission that works seamlessly with a hydraulic clutch. The handlebar-mounted dual-curve ignition map switch offers two engine power output options that can be changed on-the-fly to offer strong, powerful performance, or a tamer, more user-friendly delivery.

 

The 450 single is housed in a semi-perimeter chromium molybdenum steel frame mated to 48mm open-chamber USD WP fork and WP linkage shock.

 

The combination of Sherco's frame and the proven 48mm WP open-chamber fork and WP shock with linkage provides a suspension and handling package that complies beautifully over a vast range of terrain.

 

Available from Sherco dealerships nationwide from 27 July 2015, the Sherco 450 SEF-R Factory edition will be priced from $14,290 (incl. GST). See your Sherco dealer for further details.
