Re: Mirrors

Thanks for the responses guys. Since my first post on this I have found this conversion that a guy in the UK is testing out. Indicator units replace the original mirror units and a couple of PCX or CBR 500 mirrors on the bars and hopefully problem solved. Not sure of the cost / availability of these...

Mirrors

I bought a new 2020 Forza 125cc 2 months ago and its great- apart from the mirrors. No matter how much I adjust the angle, I just can't seem to get a good view of what's going on immediately behind me. I fitted a couple of small round adjustable blind spot mirrors that did help a little but I still ...

Re: I have to change the tire valve stems

Interestingly, I purchased a new Forza 125 a few weeks ago and it has a built in cranked valve on the rear wheel (non removable).

Re: Hello- glad to be aboard.

That's correct- Briefly, Compulsory Basic Training (CBT) in the UK= L plates, no pillion passenger, no motorways, 125cc limit. You then progress to a Full Licence Test (within 2 yrs) that removes these restrictions.

Re: Hello- glad to be aboard.

On the road at last, due to a backlog of the UK CBT tests because of Covid, my wife and I had to wait a few weeks to get riding. We are thoroughly enjoying ourselves on these machines. Battled some heavy rain and winds today but again enjoyable and good experience. We mainly ride as a pair so need t...

Re: Goodbye Forza 300 and Welcome NC750D Integra.

Re: Matte paint finish .

There are many paint protectants out there that work with Matte. They are all known as MattE detailers… Find one that’s available in your country, they are not rare. Your owners manual also should discuss this. Do not use conventional wax. Here is one that is very popular in the US. https://adamspo...

Hello- glad to be aboard.

Really pleased to find this forum. Joined after purchasing a new Forza 125cc along with a new PCX 125 for my wife. Both new to 2 wheels but since retiring a couple of years ago I have been riding a Piaggio MP3 500 (3 wheels). A few months ago my wife became really keen to ride solo but the MP3 was t...
