Technical Overview
2009 Sherco SM 5.1i-F Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Sherco for the super motard motorcycle segment, the 2009 Sherco SM 5.1i-F relies on a 510.4 cc (31.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 95.0 x 72.0 mm (3.7 x 2.8 inches).
On the scales, the SM 5.1i-F measures 109 kg (240 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 880 mm (34.6 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,485 mm (58.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 7.5-liter (2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
