Re: What's wrong with the Integra?

While I don't agree with GN2 that it is shit I do on the main aspects of his post, in essence it is a very expensive hybrid that combines aspects of scooter and motorbike but does to some degree have limitations in both areas.

Re: End of the 300 Forza?

As I stated in http://www.hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=5592 I reckon it is more to do with a replacement version due to reg changes etc thus they need to get rid of this stock asap.

Re: Headlight High beam off or on during daylight hours only

As stated in the UK doing so will annoy others and isn't acceptable to use it apart from at certain times and places.

Re: Percy the PCX125

I've got a high end pragmasis 13mm chain but it isn't one on the thatcham list thus it won't save me anything on insurance, those items that are save so little they aren't worth listing on insurance since they restrict your covered ability to park up for short stays without using a chain etc.

Re: Warning: Forza 300 discs and pads

In reality there can be no guide set in stone for brake pads, they'll generally wear down at different rates depending on things like riding style etc.

Re: Is there any downside to using the red kill switch to sh

Well I was told when training to only use the Kill switch when required not to turn off the bike, you use the key for that. In essence it came across as the same as using the power switch on your computer rather than asking it to shut down.

Re: 2017 Forza 300

Any bike with more body panels, such as scooters, will suffer more from cross winds and weight can counter this effect to a certain degree. My PCX certainly feels those cross winds, I think with a increase in power the forza would be even better in the power to weight ratio.

Re: 2017 Forza 300

So what changes are people expecting to see other than engine changes due to Euro 4 regulations? OK, what is Euro 4? I would like my missing 21cc. 300 should be 300. I would also like the scooter to lose a hundred pounds. And while we are being silly, let it cost a lot less. Euro 4 is a European re...

Re: Forza owner thinking Burgman 400 ??

You can also throw the X10 in the mix but I guess the negatives on the X10 are down to build quality and more limited dealer network in the UK, it does have the advantage of being well spec'd and being at the top end of power for the A2 license.

Re: Forza owner thinking Burgman 400 ??

I agree about for some it might be irrelevant but I think by there nature of being maxi scooters people are more likely to be riding higher mileage on them than say my PCX, it just seemed low for Burgman.
