Re: new thai style

I bet that will bring some decent miles per gallon. Must have shed 50 pounds in rims and rubber. I get it... 125cc moped :D Yeah it's a street racer style around here max out the motor and shed excess weight. I hear it used to be a big scene a few years ago, hundreds of bikers blocking off streets ...

Re: Burgman 200 or Modded 125

Decided to pass on the Kymco 300i, read it was 421 lbs. Which is to me kind of like touring scooter weight. So it looks the its either keep the PCX125 or Burg 200. I am having a terrible time justiflying paying new scooter prices when used is soooo much more value. I can't believe I missed out on a...

Re: Burgman 200 or Modded 125

That dt300i has some nice specs! 29+ hp 300cc under 400lbs?! Sounds like a blast.

Re: Burgman 200 or Modded 125

in my limited experience on a rental burgman 200 Likes: Under seat storage wow! Comfortable pillion Dislikes: Feels underpowered for its big frame. Motor sounds buzzy Instrument panel meh (subjective) Not so comfortable for a tall rider. Wish I had some highway experience for you but it was more mou...

Re: Hello from Thailand

Wow you just solved a big mystery for me! I had seen that bracket over at a bikerzbits store. I couldn't make heads or tails of how it mounted. I figured I'd lower my forza at some point and figure it out then. Here's a link to the one I saw. https://bikerzbits.co.th/forza-lowering-bracket.html How ...

Re: Need Advice. First time scooter buyer

Don't worry too much about the running commentary on build, tire and ride quality. We all have opinions and expectations. I ride a 2013 forza on the streets of Bangkok (often with passenger) an hour or two a day on stock tires and suspension and it's adequate for what I do. Mae sot roads seem good e...

Re: PCX 150 vs NVX/Aerox 155

If it's the powertrain from the nmax I like it! Unfortunately I sat on one in Thai motor show and my knees were hitting the glovebox area which is a deal breaker for me. I'm 6'3" so your mileage may vary but even the people in the promotional shots looked pretty cozy.

Re: Kymco DT 350i vs Forza 300

I also had them add a bit of extra padding. Here's a side profile shot. If your considering a forza and taller than 5'7" plan on changing up the seat. The exhaust is off of a ninja 300. I like the more aggressive angle to it. The sound is only marginally improved.

Re: Kymco DT 350i vs Forza 300

I had a local shop remove the offending back cushion and reupholster with different fabric. Doesn't really effect passenger space and really frees things up for me. My buddy with a pcx will ride sitting all the way back on pillion to get the same leg room. Always gives me a laugh.

Re: Kymco DT 350i vs Forza 300

Hey gang, Today I was at the Honda dealer shopping for some new summer gloves when I decided to have a sit on the Forza 300 to see what all the fuss is about. Compared to the PCX it's a noticeably bigger scooter, but still appears manageable for manoeuvring, parking and filtering. I really liked th...

Re: Rollers only

TXpcx how's the 17g working out? I just picked up a 2014 forza and am contemplating 17 - 18g rollers and a seat mod.
