I have a Forza Spanner Wrench; a 2014 Original Windshield and a Glove Box Part (not sure what this part is for?).

See attached pic... ignore the Tire Valve Caps! No pic of Windshield; but basically new.

Sorry for the confusion.

If someone "needs" them... they are free to a good home!

But I do live in Cincinnati, Ohio 45247.

That glove box part looks to be in pretty good condition, but I already have one. I keep mine in my spare Honda parts area just in case, 'cuz you never know.

Thanks for the offer anyway.

Sorry - PM was to OP. It is, in fact, the tool to adjust the rear shock pre-load. The shock on the right you can do with the wrong tool, but with the muffler in the way, the one on the right is pretty much impossible without the tool.

Jam a big screwdriver in the shock spring and lever the right direction. You can then turn the adjuster by hand. That tool is really awkward and dangerous.

That spanner sure looks scary. I have adjusted the shocks a few times (soft gives comfort, but also
spring vibrations) by simply removing the lower shock bolts, swinging them back, then using an
ancient Yamaha - straight -spanner that I found somewhere.

I'm having a look at the shop manual and there is no such torture instrument there...

Turns out the spanner works perfectly (as, I suppose, one should expect for a purpose-designed tool). With the Forza on the center stand, it is easy to adjust the shock, even on the muffler side. Even easier on the left, since you can flip the handle over and effectively make the handle longer (and thus have more torque).

I have adjusted the shocks to max pre-load since we mostly use the Forza two-up and are easily over 400 lb with gear. The ride is considerably better. With the tool, I will be able to easily go back to the middle setting when I ride the Forza solo later in the season.

Boy, were you in a hurry to find out!

There was no tool kit coming with my Forza. I have asked for the nice sparkplug wrench (no
answer yet), but couldn't give a damn about the crappy screwdriver and that 'thing'.

The factory spark plug wrench is my only wrench out of several I own that will fit in the tight spot of the spark plug.

Thanks and Just for you! :)
My PCX didn't come equipped with tools either, just a cable wire to hang my lid found inside a plastic snap case.Others elsewhere on the globe have gotten the full kit.
Who-ya-gonna-call...next? Ghostbuster's :lol:
