Engineered by Sherco for the super motard motorcycle segment, the 2008 Sherco 4.5 4T Supermotard relies on a 448.6 cc (27.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 94.5 x 64.0 mm (3.7 x 2.5 inches).
On the scales, the 4.5 4T Supermotard measures 109 kg (240 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,485 mm (58.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 8.5-liter (2.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
