When was the last Scorpa/Yamaha 2 Stroke

Postby bikerpete » Mon Jun 19, 2017 8:14 pm

I've been trying to figure out when Scorpa last used a Yamaha 2-Stroke engine, but haven't found a definitive answer.
My best guess is that 2009 was the last time a Yam 2T was used, but I'm not sure if that is correct.

Cheers
Peter

That is correct. Scorpa still had yamaha 2stroke engines in 2009 until they went into liquidation & were bought by sherco in late 2009 The 2010 scorpa 2stroke used the sherco motor.

it was 2008 for Australia. 2009 there was very few two strokes produced and they all went to Europe and England. (Birkett got a few, France the majority). Scorpa were basically non producing by Feb that year.
The white tanked, blacked rimmmed 08 models will be the last ones you will find in Australia.
