Your gas gauge is useless, the rear brakes wear out faster than you think, check for recalls, the body panels are a pain and you need a taller windshield. Also the red ones are faster.

Some mod should create a newbie FAQ.

Welcome to the group! The comment above did sound a little negative. Although the 2014-2013 Forza did have a few recalls, a couple being the rear brake line, and the fuel pump. So definitely check to see if the recalls need to be done. Above all have fun and be safe!

Welcome TBone...informed friendly and helpful people on here.
You will love the Forza ...its a great bike.
.the fuel gauge?..poor.. but just fill her up when you get to the red as there is still lots of miles left in tank..simple really...
rear brakes...6000mls and I replaced the pads...a really cheap and simple job so no big deal there.
The two recalls...yes check they have been attended to before taking the bike...again no big deal as you are buying new.
Tall windshield...a great addition and fairly easily done.
Enjoy it and ride safe.

Welcome. I too recently bought a new leftover 2014 and I love everything about it but the seat. I'm working on that. I ran the serial number and my dealer had already taken care of the recalls. Awesome bike. Enjoy!
