Sherco just dropped something pretty wild. The brand has unveiled its EnduroGP Replica models, and mind you, “replica” isn’t just marketing fluff. It's not just about liveries and bolt-on goodies. These are about as close as you’re getting to a factory race bike without signing up for a full season of EnduroGP.
There are two versions on the table. You’ve got the 300 SE EnduroGP Replica tied to Steve Holcombe, and the 300 SEF EnduroGP Replica linked to Hamish Macdonald. One is a fire-breathing 300cc two-stroke, the other a 300cc four-stroke, and both are built to mirror what Sherco runs at the highest level of enduro racing.
Personally, I think the most interesting thing here is the suspension.
Both bikes get KYB semi-factory units with Kashima coating up front and DLC-coated tubes, paired with a matching KYB rear shock that also gets a DLC shaft and full triple adjustability. Sherco says this is the first time it’s offering this level of suspension on a production bike, and honestly, that tracks. This is the kind of setup you’d normally only see if you had a race mechanic dialing things in between stages. It’s all about sharper feedback, more control, and making ugly terrain feel just a bit more manageable when you’re on the throttle.
Then you start looking at the parts list and it just keeps going. The two-stroke gets an Akrapovič silencer, while the four-stroke goes all in with a full Akrapovič system and a titanium header. Both bikes roll on CNC-machined blue 4GD hubs with reinforced spokes, and they’re clamped together with factory-style blue anodized triple clamps that look straight off a works bike. Braking gets an upgrade too with a 270mm Galfer front disc and relocation bracket, plus a matching Galfer rear disc.
And it doesn’t stop there. You’ve got a black Xtrem skid plate ready to take hits, CNC-machined factory footpegs for better grip, a Scar handlebar, and Polisport handguards to keep your levers intact when things go sideways. Even the seat is different, with a built-in pocket, because apparently Sherco knows you’re going to be out there long enough to need it. The whole thing is wrapped in full EnduroGP graphics with proper rider number plates, so yeah, it looks the part too.
But here’s where it gets even more ridiculous. Sherco is only building 100 units of the two-stroke and just 40 of the four-stroke for the entire world. Each one gets a numbered frame sticker, so you’ll know exactly how rare your bike is. And just in case you wanted something to hang in your garage, every bike comes with a replica jersey signed by either Holcombe or Macdonald.
What Sherco is really doing here is skipping the usual middle ground entirely. Most “race replicas” give you the look and maybe a couple of upgraded bits. These go way further. This is literally Sherco handing over something that’s just one step removed from what its factory riders actually line up with, then saying good luck and try to keep up.
It’s not trying to be practical or accessible. It’s just trying to be as close to a real race bike as possible while still technically being something you can buy. And that's what makes these bikes even more badass, even for riders who have no plans of racing.
