Sherco 50: SM-R and SM-RS
Since 2002 (takeover by HRD), the French motorcycle manufacturer Sherco has been offering great, street-legal 50cc geared mopeds, namely two Supermoto and two Enduro models.
The chassis of the small 50cc Shercos is inspired by the large SE Enduro machines, so they look great and above all have very high technical qualities. When buying a Sherco, you can be sure of getting a bike with a solid, light, stable and maneuverable chassis.
There are two versions of the Supermotard: the Factory SM-R, which can easily be recognized by its classic fork, and the Factory SM-RS, which has an upside-down fork.
