Re: Mods made to my 2015 Forza

Hey Road-Dog, Thanks for posting - great improvements! And thanks for showing me your Utopia backrest. I'm going to go ahead and order one. That's what I've been looking for, because it seems like the most comfortable seating position for me on the highway is leaning back a little with my feet up on...

Re: What Would You do?

Hey DioTiAma, I totally agree with you about ABS. I've fallen off of bikes more than once because of rear wheel lockup back in the days before ABS, and the ABS on my large BMW absolutely saved my life a few years ago on the LBJ Freeway in Dallas. Without ABS we would not be talking today, period. I'...

Re: YSS shocks adjustment question

Got it! Thanks, all. I did the research on the YSS website and found the answers. Until now I didn't know they were such a big company and that they made all these different types and applications of shocks... DOH! Anyway it turns out the ones they make for the Forza are from the lower-priced end of...

YSS shocks adjustment question

Hi all, I've put a few miles on my new YSS reservoir rear shocks and I thought I might play with their adjustment a little, but now I see that I don't have any idea how to do that. The shocks came with no printed instructions at all, and the nice illustrations on the side of the box don't seem to re...

Re: ...

Made in Texas dude , aren't you a bit exaggerating? 27500km and you are still on factory belt and front tire? I've replaced the front tire@18000km! The rear one twice (10000km & 24000km)! The belt@24000km as Honda recommends. And i'm doing 1500km per month (4/5 on the highway). Lecompte, if it ...

Laminar LIP installed on standard short Forza windshield

Hi all, When I bought my Forza, one of the first things I noticed at highway speeds was that the sturdy and beautiful stock windshield took all the air away from the front of the scooter and dumped it right on my chest and face. I always wear a full-face helmet and earplugs, so there wasn't a noise ...

Re: YSS rear shocks installed - report

I got mine from powerbypcx and had no problems. Good communication and tracking. Great service. I don't know what it would be like to send anything back there for refund or exchange, though. I ordered a set of reservoir YSSes for my Forza from Bikersbitz (my first order from Bikersbitz) about two we...

Re: First Problem with my 2011 PCX125

Sounds like a fuel problem rather than a spark problem to me. A bad spark plug would cause poor performance overall and, most noticeably, hard starting. That said, at 4500 miles you could justify a new plug if you wanted to. I'll be interested to see what you find.

Re: YSS rear shocks installed - report

I'm sure the reservoir shocks offer an even better ride, but they do cost somewhat more. Either type of shock is a huge improvement over the stock Honda shocks.

YSS rear shocks installed - report

Hi All, I just installed my new YSS rear shocks on my 2013 PCX150 and thought I'd let you know. I got the Z series, not the more expensive ones with the gas reservoir. I got the black ones, but they come in several colors. Here's the link: http://www.powerbypcx.com/en/accessories-pcx-v1/251-shocks-a...

Re: The Edinburgh Commute.

Nice video, Thanks.

Lovely city; I haven't been there in years. Thanks for the visit.

Plus the music goes well with the autumn mood.

More vlogs please!
