Motorex Partners with Sherco!

With Sherco, another renowned motorcycle brand relies on the race-proven products and expertise of the Swiss lubricant specialist. This global collaboration spans a wide range: Motorex is now the original equipment supplier for all Sherco production motorcycles, supports Sherco in its diverse racing activities, leverages the partnership for customer-centric innovations, and supplies Sherco's manufacturing facilities with Motorex industrial lubricants.

Despite its young age (founded in 1998), Sherco has become a key player in the world of off-road motorcycles—not just in trials bikes but also in hard enduros, and more recently, rally bikes. With its distinctive motorcycles, Sherco has consistently delivered impressive performances. This is evident from numerous titles and renowned riders in categories such as Trials, Enduro, Extreme Enduro, and Rally Raid. Sherco currently boasts ten world championship titles, and since 2009, participation in the Dakar Rally has been a top priority—most recently, Lorenzo Santolino clinched a stage victory on the 3rd stage of Dakar 2025, while Rui Goncalves secured 2nd place on the 10th stage.

It is fitting that Motorex is prominently represented in all motorcycle racing disciplines worldwide. Together with its partners, it has clinched 177 world championship titles to date. The secret to success lies in the combination of maximum performance with utmost reliability—giving you peace of mind when pushing your machine to the limit. Whether it's for the engine, gearbox, forks, braking system, or chain, you can rely on the products from the Motorex Moto Line. Now, they're also part of the extensive Sherco range, from the 50cc two-stroke to the 500cc rally bike.

The mutual exchange of knowledge and experience is a key factor for the continuous development of the partners involved. This encompasses the entire spectrum of their collaboration—from motorsport to the initial filling of production motorcycles, right through to supplying Sherco's production facilities with innovative metalworking fluids from Motorex. When it comes to developing stable and high-performance engine oils for racing engines, Motorex's 19-member team of chemists is truly in its element. Hundreds of parameters, formulas, and empirical values are just a step on the way to the goal. The R&D department is equipped with a state-of-the-art laboratory featuring highly precise analysis and testing equipment. If needed, sample formulations can be produced in small batches and evaluated in tests. Oil analyses also allow insight into the "heart of the engines," providing valuable insights.

To prove itself as a lubrication technology specialist on the motorcycle world's testing ground, this exact mix is essential. Edi Fischer, CEO of Motorex AG, proudly states, "Both Sherco and Motorex are particularly popular among young bikers. The two brands complement each other perfectly. The in-depth collaboration that has already begun will lead to mutual enhancement and further professionalization. I am very much looking forward to a long-term partnership!"
