Company History
Scorpa is part of France’s rich trials tradition, building featherweight motorcycles that make balance, grip, and precision feel intuitive. Engines emphasize torque off idle; frames and suspension prioritize feel over travel; and ergonomics allow fluid transitions between pegs and seat. The brand has partnered on powertrains and refined maps and jetting to suit slick rocks and logs. Club and national competition informed iterative improvements—reliability in repeated stalls, heat management at low airflow, and components that shrug off tumbles. Historically, Scorpa helped evolve modern trials geometry and controls, proving that mastery of slow, technical riding can be more addictive—and instructive—than outright speed.
