2022 Sherco 250 SE Factory - Vlog #1

There you have it! We totally splurged and got ourselves some new rides for the 2022 season!
The additional 50cc will help me tremendously in the gnarly stuff (formerly rode a 200 xc-w). I'm really looking forward to the lugging capability and playfulness of the 250 engine!
Here's a list of all the basic mods and ad-ons we made to our bikes before our first ride:
- Pipe guard / skid plate combo
- Rad braces
- Clutch and stator cover protector
- Re-jetted (JD Jetting Kit)
- Wrap around hand guards
- Optimized turning radius
Still a few more things to purchase such as swing-arm guards and a Tubliss system for the rear tire... Now that I have both my front and rear springs swapped for my weight, I'll be dialling in my suspension over the coming weeks. Can't wait to try the KYB Suspension!

This is so nice to see a young couple enjoying yourselves on matching platforms. Those look like solid and reliable bikes.

[@1down5up_enduro]

You probably already found out but if you unscrew gas tank bolt and lower bolt on each side then you don't have to unscrew each bolt for plastics. The fuel tank will come out with plastics easily.

[@rose.lantaigne]

Yes! We did figure that one out. Thanks for watching!

[@thomassullivan3575]

I have a 22 SE250 Factory also, I am also 5'6. I installed enduro engineering bar risers to get the more upright feel, it made it feel a lot more comfortable for me, something ya'll might want to look into if you haven't already.

[@rose.lantaigne]

Thanks for the feedback, and thank you for watching, hope you enjoyed it. 👍

[@jakegerard9711]

The Flo low footpegs are amazing! I have a 2022 300 se factory and that is one of the first things I changed. Opened up the cockpit and made it feel much better, and they are super grippy.

[@rose.lantaigne]

Awesome, will look into that. My boots, which have the motocross sole, slides off occasionally. The pegs seem flat, instead of angled inwards. Annoying!

[@joshhiggins8433]

I have a 2020. I agree with the other commenters about the bar risers and especially the FLO lowering foot pegs. Also, I really liked switching from a 14 to 13 tooth front sprocket. So nice for technical steep slow hillclimbs.

[@rose.lantaigne]

Awesome. Thanks for watching and leaving your feedback! Hoping to do a 30 hour review. I’m just about there!

[@Dobemandan]

Swap out 3 clutch springs with softer KTM springs and it's perfect!! 13 tooth front sprocket. You'll get used to the pegs in no time. They're very high quality.

[@rose.lantaigne]

60+ hours in now and I agree! The stock pegs are the bomb! 🙌 I swapped the rear sprocket to gear it down. I also swapped out 3 clutch springs for the softer KTM ones! Great minds think alike! 👍

[@endurotruckererniedesjardins]

Hey nice bikes... something about a blue bike eh. We're so very excited and happy for your new bikes. Jess n I can't wait to get out riding with you guys again.

[@rose.lantaigne]

Thank you! We are pretty stoked about these bikes. We are "impatiently" waiting for the snow to melt. 😆 Anytime you guys wanna come up just let me know! 👍

[@TorqueDorque]

You may want to look into Midwest Mountain Engineering clutch/brake levers to lighten up your pull - they work great once you get them adjusted correctly.

[@rose.lantaigne]

I'll definitely check out those levers you are talking about. Currently running the flo lever. So far it seems to be helping.

[@joelappin9735]

I am going to 2nd this recommendation. I have one on my 22 SE300. It makes the pull lighter and broadens the engagement zone.

[@barryhallsack8852]

Those are some cool dirt bikes! I am probably going to switch brands and try a Sherco or a TM. My KTM seems to be working great, 64 hours without an issue. Good time to be riding dirt bikes lots of good choices!

[@rose.lantaigne]

Agreed! So much to choose from nowadays. Before, the only enduros you could find were KTMs. Now we have an assortment of brands available where I live!

[@5DLit]

NICE BIKES HAVE FUN GUYS!

[@rose.lantaigne]

Thank you! We have close to 90 hours on them now and absolutely love them!

[@5DLit]

@@rose.lantaigne LOVELY! i have just had mine delivered to the dealer, made a few mods and ready to pick up next week

[@rose.lantaigne]

@@5DLit congrats! How exciting!

[@motovalleyenduro]

Looking good guys. Can’t wait to see you guys at the next event.

[@rose.lantaigne]

Super stoked!!! 🤘 Thanks so much for watching. Much appreciated. See you on the trails. 👊

[@motovalleyenduro]

You guys can heat the linkage guards up and bend them so they don’t rub on the shock mount. I can send you a pic of mine if you want. I’ll message you on the gram.

[@rose.lantaigne]

Yes please do. Would love to see that. Thanks!

[@angelisaedwards]

Such a great video! Very excited to see more on the shercos!!

[@rose.lantaigne]

Thanks for the love! Much appreciated. 🙏 I'm getting pretty anxious for the season to begin! We had a lot of snow this winter in my region, so spring is delayed. Calling for warm weather and rain all week. 🤞

[@te4097]

@@rose.lantaigne its my pleasure to watch your high quality videos👍

[@GOVT4570]

Nice bikes! Great video! Stoked to see your upcoming edits!

[@rose.lantaigne]

Can't wait to work with you this summer! 🎥 📸 Just let us know when you wanna join in on the fun. Still a few more weeks until we can ride here... Come on snow! Melt already!!! 🌞🌞🌞

[@jessrainville]

Great video! 🤘

[@rose.lantaigne]

Thank you so much for watching. 🥰

[@johannesderkannes7935]

Hi from Germany ;-). I own my 22 300se for less than a month now and I am mounting extras of protection - which brand produced the pipe/engine guard you mounted? Looks good!

[@rose.lantaigne]

Thanks for stopping by! The brand of pipe guard / skid combo is “Motoes”. www.motoes.net

[@TheDirtyBirchTrails]

Sweet ! Is it blue plated? Mine is lol

[@rose.lantaigne]

We only have green plates. But now we are allowed to use roads (just like ATVs). Recently passed in our by-law. It's nice, we can ride directly from our house now without worrying! Thanks for watching!!! 👍👍👍

[@mrmauco]

What jetting did you end up with

[@rose.lantaigne]

We adjust our jetting according to the chart provided in the JD jet kit, depending on temperatures. Obviously we go a notch richer when riding late fall, even early spring.

[@brandonfernandez2]

How do you like the bike? Is it heavy?

[@rose.lantaigne]

It's slightly heavier than my 200 xc-w. It doesn't feel heavier when you ride it through. It handles like a dream and feels ultra-light. However, I do feel a weight difference when I drop the bike and have to hand bomb it around. But you don't feel that while riding, at all... You can flick it around pretty easily. It's awesome! It could feel heavier in my case because I have a 7 pound skid plate on it. Didn't have that on my other bike. It's minimal, really... Thanks for watching!

[@te4097]

How tall are you and did you lower your bike?

[@rose.lantaigne]

I'm 5'-6", and not lowered. Just re-sprung the suspension for my weight. Thanks for taking the time to watch my video. 👍

[@rhinogames9856]

So 2 250s he didn’t get the 300?

[@rose.lantaigne]

Yes, 2x 250's. We prefer the engine characteristics of a 250. Playful. More nimble feeling. Slight nuance really. The 300's are awesome too.
