Positioned in Sherco's super motard motorcycle lineup, the 2016 Sherco 50 SE-R features a 49.7 cc (3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 40.3 x 39.0 mm (1.6 x 1.5 inches).
On the scales, the 50 SE-R measures 83 kg (183 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 910 mm (35.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,360 mm (53.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
Within MotoLibrary's Sherco archive, this model family spans 5 indexed model years from 2014 to 2023, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
