Built around Sherco's minibike, cross motorcycle platform, the 2017 Sherco E-KID Trial features a purpose-built air-cooled electric configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 1.4 HP (1 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and chain final drive.
On the scales, the E-KID Trial measures 21 kg (46 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 480 mm (18.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 800 mm (31.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
Within MotoLibrary's Sherco archive, this model family spans 3 indexed model years from 2014 to 2017, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
