Engineered by Sherco for the trial motorcycle segment, the 2005 Sherco 3.2 features a 317 cc (19.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 82.0 x 60.0 mm (3.2 x 2.4 inches).
On the scales, the 3.2 measures 73 kg (161 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 635 mm (25 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,332 mm (52.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 3.1-liter (0.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
