2015 Forza US Version

Post by SECoda »

So other than the date it appears the 2015 Forza is 100% identical to the 2014 in every specification. I guess it is perfect or takes a few years before any updates. o_O

Other than color changes it is very rare for a bike to be changed after a single year. Some models take much longer. For instance Yamaha offers the TW200 which is the same design as 1987, when it was introduced. In Japan, Honda still sells the Cub which has been in production since 1958 without any significant change.

I bet next year's model will be the same except for color and the stay the same for the next year after that. If sales fall flat then they may pull it from the market however. I would not expect any serious changes until 2018 or later.

Honda says simply adding another color option would increase the USA Forza's Retail Price by roughly $600.....right now, Sales have been "brisk", and Honda already knows the Forza is "pricey".....guess we will see what COLOR gets used in the future..... 8)

It's a fact. :lol: I love science.

Light travels at a constant speed in vacuum... 3 x 10^8 m/s...
But in media like air, glass, different wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum travel at different speeds.
Refractive Index n is inversely proportional to wavelength of light.
But refractive index = Speed of light in Vacuum/Speed of light in medium
Hence, speed of light in media is directly proportional to wavelength...
Since wavelength increases from Violet to Red,
Red travels the fastest...
Violet travels the slowest...

Red is the colour of a baboon's arse. This is a scientific fact.

The most powerful, fastest and furthest travelled vehicles produced and operated by humans have all been white.
So for vehicles, white is fastest.

Baboons with red butts are the fastest too. :P

SCIENCE
WHY ARE MONKEY BUTTS SO COLORFUL?
!
By Dan Gareau/ Rockefeller.edu Posted April 10, 2013

A baboon's butt tissue is arranged somewhat like the illustration above so that red photons are reflected and all of the other photons (like the blue ones) are absorbed. Only the red light makes it out and gets into our eyes. This is why we see we see red baboon butts!
So now you will never look at a monkey's butt the same way: you will know what makes it red! You will even be able to hold your own if this topic ever comes up on a first date…
More about photons: Another demonstration of optical diffusion can be found HERE. If you want to go way off the mathematical deep end of diffusion theory, equation 15 of THIS PAPER is a great way to start. Alternately, if you are sick and tired of diffuse light and just want to see me rock out using ballistic laser light, check out this RAP MUSIC VIDEO.
Or if you'd prefer to invoke the Goldilocks Postulate, and want to try something that is just right in the middle: head over to this online biophotonics course.
P.S. Stay tuned for next time's discussion about imaging cats through a layers of milk, another wonder of light diffusion.
