In Italy the open damper is replaced under warranty by Honda Services with a new one that works like a charm.
In my NSS300 it was replaced 2 months ago and until now the seat stays perfectly open.

Re: That seat 'opener damper'
In Italy we have news about a replacement of original seat piston with a new one. My Honda mechanic says the new piston will be available in 20/30 days.

Re: That seat 'opener damper'
In Italy the most owners of a Forza 300 have the same issue: the seat can't stay open. Honda Italia replaces in warranty the piston, but using one of same type. We think this can't be resolutive and we inquired for a more strong piston or a different solution.

Re: NSS300 Fuel Pump problems
It doesn't make a lot of sense, except that scoots with special options are often assembled in special productions runs..... its likely that A and AC models have different VIN ranges and birth dates. I think this can me true... In Italy only model with ABS is sold since june/july 2013. There is ano...

13th issue from Italian site: Forza300 bought in 2103, after 400 kms pump died in July 2013. Replaced after 40 days... after this problem, the scooter is ok.
This means that Honda knew the problem since July 2013.

Re: NSS300 Fuel Pump problems
that doesn't take into account the 80-90% of the Italian population who own a Forza but don't read forums or don't post to forums and who probably think their own fuel pump problem is an isolated failure. This is true... I think we can represent only a small part of Italian owners of a Honda Forza....

Re: NSS300 Fuel Pump problems
We know (news from an online magazine), NSS300 in Italy are not more 2000. The info about 3000 was wrong.
I'll ask in my forum about 4 last digits.. Give me 2 days..

Re: NSS300 Fuel Pump problems
The plate with VIN numbers and year of manufacture there is not in Forza 300 sold in Italy. We have only the VIN number printed on motor block and in chassis. So is not easy to know the year of manufacture.
We know that the 10th caracter of VIN means D=2013 and E=2014.
