PCX got a Big Brother Forza Today

[switta]

found one two hours from where i live and had to go get it only rode it about 5 miles so far .
it is nimble and very nice ! not loud at all and handles great , takes off a bit slower then the pcx150 but not by much .
ride quality is a bit better then the pcx due to the weight but it is still rough on some bumps , it has not lost that scooter feel .
i am surprised how well balanced it is and will corner like the 150 and is very comparable to it overall just more power and weight .
here are some pics

Its a very different red from the PCX.

Congratulations! There they are side by side and all yours! Time to update your signature

[strkngfang]

Yep, the Forza is a much brighter Red.....

CONGRATS Switta on the New Forza.....!!!!!

[gn2]

Different screen too, the one I've seen isn't clear like that one.

Looks good. It will be interesting to hear the difference in real use highway speeds after you have a chance to wring out the Forza.

Congrats on the new scoot!

The Forza is significantly better on faster roads than the PCX 125 imo.

Nice....if only Honda bring Forza here.....perhaps they should reduce to 250cc in my country to avoid higher tax.

I prefer the darker candy apple red of the PCX. Wish the Forza was available in white here. It looks real sweet in white.

[WhiteNoise]

Dreaming of White .....(sigh) & facing the facts
But wait! gn2 says there's Paint! And in White! Game on? Not playing

[Driller]

Very nice! Great pics showing the two together. Look forward to impressions as you get more time in the saddle.
Thanks!

not zippy at takeoff like the pcx? I bet its great at 55+ mph huh? my pcx150 is roaring like a tired fat dog at 55+ lol i want a forza bad

Nope, its faster off the line than the PCX.
Better power to weight ratio and better torque to weight ratio.
Even two up a Forza should be able to see off a PCX.

Congratulations, Switta, it looks great!
That shade of red looks like the red offered on the Honda CBR500R. Very Italian!

Get a room

it just the snap right at take off like in the first 5 or 10 feet after that the forza flies !!!! friend that rides with me on a 1100 kaw is all over the pipe loud as heck to keep up with me
I'm sure it's just due to the clutching of the larger machine and weight , the pcx feels like it will almost lift the front wheel from a dead stop but not the forza .
have almost 150 miles and so far very happy with it ! had the thought of keeping the pcx at first but now i really think i will be selling it ? the forza is the perfect fit for around town and highway use .
only complaints are stiff rear shocks and rock hard seat .

I've had my Forza300 up to 87 MPH...cruised it on the Interstate for 20 miles between 80 and 85 MPH.....waaaaay faster than the PCX150...like comparing "apples-n-oranges".....

.....and in a drag race with the PCX150, the Forza leaps to the front and stays there while quickly continuing to pull away at a brisk rate.....again, "apples-n-oranges".....

Its cool that both share the same design language.

I like the front headlights a bit more too. It's a little bit more aggressive and sportbike like. I love it.
