Re: headset adjustment

None of the above post makes sense to me? I had enough info to loosen the nuts and adjust the bearing (I used a 32mm crowfoot spanner with a torque wrench on a bar), I didn't have the torque settings, but a pm and the pages from the manual were more than enough, thanks for confirming the detail thou...

Re: changing the belt on a forza 300

Thanks Fish, the job doesn't look that challenging - the torque settings are all in need for now.

changing the belt on a forza 300

Hi, I have ordered a manual from the US though it will not probably arrive until after chirstmas; my forza is a recent purchase and I am going through the 'passage of ownership' that I do with all my vehicles, having conducted most of the service schedule, I am going to change the belt, over the hol...

Re: headset adjustment

The bars are easy to wobble, it feels like it is going into a tank slapper, steering is not positive, different feel each time I lean into a corner - the scoot holds back then over commits. Tyre pressure is as per manual, I have just bought the scooter (12,000 miles) and have serviced it (oil + filt...

headset adjustment

riding feels like either wheel bearing or headset bearing needs replacing/adjusting. I am happy the wheel bearing is fine so must be headset, any members have the relevant pages from the manual or offer any talk through?

Re: Headlights. replaced bulbs - stopped working

Here is a picture from the service manual as to where at least one other fuse box seems to be (right side of handlebar are "fuse Box B"). I looked pretty hard to find out what you have to remove to get to Fuse Box B, but the manual was silent on the issue. Maybe DaveNWJ will let us know i...

Re: Headlights. replaced bulbs - stopped working

The fuse is the weakest link and should be blown first . Replace fuses as you might not see the break (filament) inside. Sometimes looking at them can fool you. Just replace it before you buy any relays. I checked the fuses under the seat with a multimeter with current going through all of them so ...

Re: Headlights. replaced bulbs - stopped working

Thanks for all of your comments. I have a Forza 300 uk 2013, the pass switch on the uk model is on the left, along with the indicators and the headlight (full/low beam) switch. when I establish where the problem lies (and repair it) the option would be to add led or cree lights separately, unless th...

Re: Headlights. replaced bulbs - stopped working

There are 3 fuse locations. Have you checked them all? It sounds like you are in UK? Your Forza's are slightly different than Canadian or US ones. We have no pass button. The relays are under the y shaped trim around the headlights. Mine was difficult to remove and tabs got broken. I put hotter bul...

The engine wasnt running. now I have no headlights working, either with or without engine running. I tried the old bu...
