Sherco Se 450i
The Sherco Se 450i has a top speed of ~155 km/h (estimated; note: primarily an off-road enduro bike), produces ~55 hp and weighs ~113 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
El Sherco SE 450i forma parte de la gama de enduro del fabricante francés Sherco, y la variante «i» con inyección de combustible se introdujo alrededor de 2018, cuando la marca modernizó su gama de enduro de cuatro tiempos con inyección electrónica de combustible. Sherco, fundada en 1998 y con sede en Nimes (Francia), se forjó su reputación principalmente en el trial antes de expandirse agresivamente a la competición de enduro, con la SE 450i dirigida a los pilotos de enduro duro y enduro extremo que buscaban una máquina de alta cilindrada. El modelo ha sido competitivo en eventos como el Roof of Africa y otros campeonatos de enduro duro, lo que ha ayudado a Sherco a mejorar su reputación frente a rivales ya establecidos como la KTM y la Husqvarna.

Lo que los compradores deben saber
Fuel Injection Advantage
The 'i' in SE 450i stands for fuel injection, giving it superior cold-start reliability and consistent throttle response compared to carbureted competitors. This also means fewer jetting adjustments when riding at different altitudes.
Watch the Valves
The 450cc engine is known to require more frequent valve checks than some rivals, so budget for inspections every 30-40 hours of hard enduro riding. Neglecting this is the most common cause of costly engine damage reported by owners.
Strong Resale Hold
Sherco's growing reputation in hard enduro — bolstered by strong results at events like Erzbergrodeo — keeps used SE 450i values relatively solid. Low production numbers also limit market saturation, helping prices hold better than mainstream brands.

Reseña de un comprador usado
"Outstanding enduro machine undermined badly by real-world ownership practicalities."
$4,500-$7,500 usedThe Sherco SE 450i is a proper weapon if you know what you're getting into. French-built with Marzocchi forks and a punchy fuel-injected 450 single, it punches well above its obscure badge in the enduro world. Used examples from serious riders will have taken a beating, so budget for a suspension refresh and check the airbox area obsessively — these things swallow dirt if the previous owner got lazy with maintenance. The fuel injection genuinely transforms the riding experience compared to carb-fed competitors. Cold starts are drama-free, and the throttle response in tight technical sections is predictably smooth. Parts availability is the elephant in the room though — Sherco's dealer network in North America and the UK is thin. You'll be waiting on European shipments for anything beyond consumables, which gets expensive and frustrating fast. Buy one from a fastidious owner with receipts and you've got a legitimate KTM-beater at a significant discount. Buy one blind off a muddy truck and you're gambling with something that can be genuinely difficult to fix affordably.
