Re: Making the rear brake pads last???

I had the same issue shortly after I replaced the spark plug at the 8,000 service. The bike would die first occasionally while at idle, but would start back up. Then started dying every time at idle and became difficult to start back up. After troubleshooting everything fuel related and trying a cou...

Re: How many miles / km on your Forza?

30,000 miles and still good as new. 2014 model. Based on s/n one of first 50 in North America. Probably wasted my time doing the fuel pump recall. Still running the original brake pads. Haven’t needed to fuss with the valves. Just 3 rear tires, 1 front tire, 1 drive belt and the scheduled oil and fi...

Re: Oil Change Light

Hold RESET button while turning ignition to ON, and keep holding RESET for more than 3 seconds.

Light will not come back on for another 12,800 km after resetting the light.

Working for Mom and Pop is great, no opportunity for advancement and their bratty kid becomes your boss after he drops out of college.

Re: Engine Problem

My Forza did the exact same thing right after I changed the spark plug. Adjusted the gap closer to the lower tolerance of .80mm and problem solved.

Re: Tire sealants

Been using Ride-On for several years now, beginning with the PCX. I get fantastic tire mileage, no additional balancing required. Don't ever bother checking air pressure either.

No longer own the PCX. The 150's have better grip and a smoother ride.

Re: Top speed?

Mine is happy at 70 in any conditions but takes ages to get over 80. Won't do 80 uphill or into a headwind. All hat hassle and fuss for 10mph over a pcx. Does the Forza have any good points? Your maths are a bit dodgy... In the real world my PCX sometimes dropped to around 40mph uphill if there was...

Not sure why it would screech before you start it. Do you need to lose a few pounds?
