Re: New "Scooter" Sat Nav

one issue i have with this sat nav is that it relies on being connected to your phone. Without your phone it doesn't work. Would have been alot better if it was a proper stand alone device

Re: Honda forza rear suspension

I have installed the YSS suspension, and i can say i have felt a big difference between them and the stock ones. Issue i had with the stock ones, is that i am a large guy, and to stop the scooter bottoming out on bumps i would have to crank the preload to the max, which meant i had a very harsh ride...

Re: Rear Shocks

So i got the YSS shocks, and installed them, and to me, i feel a huge difference is the comfort of the suspension. The shocks are still on the factory preload, and it does ride a bit hard/stiff, how ever it never bottoms out. the orginal shocks always gave me a sharp jolt as it bottomed out, and cra...

Re: Rear Shocks

yes, right now i am leaning towards the yss shocks, as i heard they are a big improvement over the stock shocks,
when you say they are a bit too sporty, what do you mean?

what are people's views on the malossi?

I weigh 220 lbs, and i currently have my pre-load switching between 4th and 5th when riding solo. haven't take a pillion yet....
