May be a user on here - not sure how to cross-check but thanks to the reviewer/uploader.
Only thing I'm not sold on yet is the front indicator stalk arrangement.

Thanks! I'm still surprised how well the new 125 Forza is selling!
Another youtube review was also in praise of the new Forza - just mentioned how the mpg gauge when set to mpg maxes out at 99.9mpg (which many commuters may surpass) so change to meter to an alternative type display which will not show mpg but an alternative with full info.

So it's sold with ABS as an option in Europe? (he says it does not and mentions to figures). Other's have stated the ABS on the UK version is a bit of a let down as the rear seems to lock rather than work as per ABS. I can't remember if that was a web page review or other youtube video.

For me the ABS is good it locks up for a second then releases as it should the only thing I don't like about the bike is the windshield when it's put to its maximum setting it does shake a lot so I normally have it at its lowest level a part from that loving the bike so far

I found the non-ABS a surprise, I had thought it was ABS as standard across all markets.
Have seen a few of them out and about, it looks really good.
But could I go back to a 125...?
Not sure, maybe need to get a test ride organised.

Just like with the Shi here, although 200 Euro difference rather than the £200 we had here (typical UK). 200 Euro is worth it for the ABS, seems pointless to offer both for the small difference (about £145 or so)
