Re: Strange behavior of rear drum brake

If you get a pulsing in the lever of a drum rear brake, the most likely cause is the drum is no longer fully circular.
Any lubricant ingress is most likely from enthusiastic greasing of the drive splines when replacing the wheel.

Re: Main stand floppy

someone on a Forza drilled through and used a bolt/nut in it's place - not sure if that is ok for the pcx unless it is not entering the engine housing itself. The Forza 300 uses a bolt to locate the centrestand pin endplate instead of the cast-in lug. Should be possible to drill a small hole, threa...

Re: Fuel capacity?

The fuel gauge is only present for aesthetic purposes, to even up the dash.
Use the economy meter, its completely accurate.

Re: Advice on GIVI accessories

If you want to use a Givi Topcase, buy the SR1163 model specific rear rack and your desired topcase. The topcase comes with its own mount plate. Ideally you should fit a Monolock case around the 30 litre size, larger ones are too big and heavy imo. The 1163DT screen is huge and you'll need the speci...

Re: Mirror Won’t Tighten?

If the threads on the mirror stem are trashed, throw the mirror in the bin and get a pair of CB500X mirrors, they're the same shape with longer stems giving a better rearwards view.
If the thread in the mount hole is stripped it can be helicoil repaired.

Re: Mirror Won’t Tighten?

Here's how you're supposed to fit and adjust mirrors. The mirror stem has a thread and a nut on it. With the mirror taken off the bike: Put the nut as far up the stem as it will go. Next: Screw the mirror stem into the mount hole as far as it can go then unscrew it to position the mirror arm where y...

Re: Noob in Need of the expert advice!!

Every time you buy a new scooter in the UK you lose a minimum of 20% and up to 50% of the price immediately you collect it from the dealer.
Best thing to do in financial terms is to keep it till you've done the knowledge and if you can put money away for a deposit on a cab, do that.

For the rear, the cheapest ones you can find and change them every time you change the rear tyre.
For the front, Honda originals.

Re: Idle low rpm and engine cut off problem

Stalling at low rpm is usually related to fuelling or ecu issues.
You need to get it to a proper main Honda dealer with the required diagnostic equipment and trained technicians for them to take a look at it.

Re: Idle low rpm and engine cut off problem

Fancy fuel is a waste of money.
Buy the same stuff everyone else uses, it sells faster so it won't be lying around in the storage tank picking up moisture.
Drain and refill with fresh fuel.
Don't use any additives, they're already in the fuel when you buy it.

Re: reliability?

There are two models of Forza 125, the earlier one had a range of gremlins when launched.
Very few Forza 125 owners on here.
