Re: Forza NSS300 dipped headlights

they were very firmly on and if I had not seen the U-Tube showing how to change the bulb I may not have persevered....My bike is kept in a dry brick garage and I tend to be a fair weather rider so there was no sign of rusting or any issue...just very firmly on. I appreciate your use was different so...

Re: Forza NSS300 dipped headlights

The conclusion: Returned to Halfords and by chance got the manager who expressed surprise at the bulbs I had been sold...saying that what I had been given was too powerful and in time would stain the lens yellow and could affect wiring...so he was concerned at what had happened. Got the correct bulb...

Re: Forza NSS300 dipped headlights

gn2...I took my old bulb into Halfords to get a replacement and as you say it is a 12V 35/35 bulb...However the guy in Halfords today gave me a 12V 60/55W and when I questioned it not being the same he said it didn't matter...they didn't have the exact replacement bulb and the only effect of the one...

Re: Forza NSS300 dipped headlights

Thanks all for replies and advices.

MOT in UK has got much harder this year hence my question before go...

Re: Forza 300 gas gauge accurate?

Has your dealer suggested any reasons why the gauge sticks at 3/4 level?...and if any reason "could" be linked to poor work at any recall?..thats the implication? As the bike is still under warranty I would want it fixed...even accepting the general limitations of the gauge. I find that ev...

Re: Hand grips compatibility

they are 7/8 ins. I think thats a standard size for handlebars. You will find when you remove the Forza grips that there are ridges on the remaining bar which I needed to file off before being able to fit my Datatool heated grips. No big deal but not expected and a bit of a faff.

Aye...noticed that...assumed they still need to update their on line...unless they leave online while there are existing Forza300s for sale in uk dealers?
Certainly its dropped from their latest uk glossy marketing magazine where all their bikes are covered.

Re: pillion

Forza 300 no longer available new in UK...and is therfore not included in the latest Honda bike magazine in UK.
May also have been dropped in rest of Europe. SH300 the only Honda scooter in the 300 size now. Shame really as its a great bike.
