Forza 125 performance mods

Post by 40jack »

Hey guys, why is there so little performance parts for this model? I see parts for the 300 but not the 125.baffling.

Just fill the variator housing with malossi products, i have on my 2019 and i'm not disappointed. I'm down to 94mpg but thats a small price to pay for the acceleration gains the parts give

I can imagine that the performance potential is limited on this engine as it is already producing 15hp form a 125cc engine. And perhaps the target group for this scooter (I suspect adult commuters in major european cities) is not typically interested in a tuned screamer, making the market for performance mods pretty slim.

You have put it very well. I fully agree.

I agree to a certain extent Honda have done an excellent job with the forza, but Honda also tune this vehicle for fuel economy so there’s always room for better performance if your happy to lose a few mpg’s.

what kind of accelleration did you gain? is it very noticeable and how much was the upgrade cost?

Thanks

So my Multivar and x belt just arrived and I'm waiting on my delta clutch and bell before I fit it all.

Regards the delta clutch, did you just fit it straight out of the box or did you adjust the clutch shoes? Also did you stick with the white clutch springs or did you buy extra spring set?

Any advice on the delta clutch would be very appreciated.

Was the delta clutch a worthy upgrade?

Yes definitely a worthy upgrade, the malossi multivar kit without the clutch, bell and belt seemed to cause lots of belt/clutch slip. Ive not adjusted the clutch at all since installing i forgot it was adjustable tbh gonna have a play with the clutch anyway and put the yellow contra spring back in, ive just purchased a Akrapovic exhaust at a bargain price so need to go lighter roller wieghts also. I think my mods are maxed out now apart from the torque driver. Not touching the engine until it gives up on me but hopefully that wont be anytime soon, my pcx is still going strong after 47k miles, hopefully the forza will outdo that.

Yeah I didn't adjust mine at all but it doesn't seem to engage now until about 6k revs, feels a little slippy when cold too, Def quicker off the mark but I've lost top end speed which I've read is normal. I've just ordered a set of Malossi springs yellow blue red I think so I'll play about with them when they come. What's a torque driver?

ive just installed an Akrapovic and with the 10gr rollers in the malossi multivar it was like setting off in 2nd gear, have just put in 8.5gr and its pulling at optimal revs again and i actually can feel a SMALL boost in mid range performance due to the exhaust upgrade. An exhaust is not worth the price if just for performance gains tho, i got the Akrapovic at 1/4 of its retail price so bought it on impulse, glad i did now tho the extra road presence is worth it in itself.
