Re: Honda Forza 125

In Europe and for those who want to ...perhaps time in the near future to pick up a bargain on the outgoing SWing...The new Forza 125 will need to be a fabulous scooter to beat that model...but likely will be.

Forza seat

Anyone know?....Can the dampener on the Forza seat be adjusted? The only complaint I have with the Forza after 2500mls is the seat refusing to stay open when putting/taking things in or out .

Re: Fitting Oxford heated grips.

Just finished fitting a set of Datatool heated grips to the Forza today...fairly simple really but a bit of a "faff" feeding the wires through the front of the scooter...and I needed to work on the accelerator grip to get the new grip onto that side...but all now working...I chose Datatool...

Re: LOOK at My Truck Tires, They Look Like.....

Others will likely know better than me but my understanding of the DOT numbers ( at least in the UK) are...first two numbers tell the month and the last two numbers the year...Not really sure what your 1X means...

Re: LOOK at My Truck Tires, They Look Like.....

not too clever looking WhiteNoise. what age are the tyres...not when you bought them but the age of manufacture as on the wall of the tyre. Rubber deteriorates over time even if not being used. In UK ROSPA( a National safety group) recommends that tyres over 6 years old no matter their use( even if ...
