Last Nice Riding Day

It's supposed to be near 80°F here on Monday, but rain, so Monday and Tuesday might have been the last nice riding days here until next year. The extended for forecast is for lower 60°Fs and below. I can still pick my spots for riding, but the general trend is downward. On Monday I did make it to Du...

Re: How Cold Will You Go?

I always say I'll ride if it's going to be 40°F or higher on the way home from work, which is usually between 10PM and midnight. The Forza has pretty good wind protection, so it should do well on short trips like my commute, which is about 10 miles. I wouldn't want to do anything much longer in thos...

Re: Seat Comfort

I usually walk 15,000+ steps a day(or at least five days a week) due to my job. :D

Seat Comfort

I finally got my Forza back from the dealer. It was there for three weeks while it had the entire dash replaced because the backlit circle, which shows the mileage, odometer and time, was not backlit, so now my odometer is off 650 miles. Of course most the time it was in the shop, it was gorgeous we...

Freeway Ride

If you take the freeway south from where I live, it's mostly flat, but when going north, there's lots of of large(not mountain range large, but definitely more oomph is needed to get up them) peaks and valleys. I've had the Forza on the freeway before and I was pretty happy with the performance, but...

Re: New Old Stock 2015 Forza ABS Owner

I got the Ermax screen. Supposedly they made the screen for Honda, so it's basically the same without the Honda logo and it's not blacked out at the bottom. I would have preferred to get the Honda screen, but that was not available. It's made in France and took about a week to get.

Paint Stick

Hello Everyone - I just passed 400 miles today and I was cleaning off the scooter after finishing the ride when I noticed there was a small chip in the paint. It's very small. You need to bend over to even see it, but I'm glad to get that out of the way. I got to wondering if there's some kind of pa...

Re: New Old Stock 2015 Forza ABS Owner

Thanks all for the replies. I checked on the Honda and NTHSA websites using my VIN. I know there were recalls for the 2015 Forza, but both said there are no recalls for my machine. I received the new windcreen and put it on: https://i.postimg.cc/crSvmS1D/WS.jpg It makes it much more freeway friendly.

Re: New Old Stock 2015 Forza ABS Owner

Thanks for the reply. I did see today when I had it in my driveway at dusk with just my eyes. It was not evenly lit at all. Plus it did go off completely, which I'm assuming the polarizing would not effect. Thanks again.

I was not. It was at night and was using my helmet with shield. I had not glasses on at all. Thanks for the replies.

Re: New Old Stock 2015 Forza ABS Owner

Thanks. I finally got to take it to work yesterday. It was super comfortable and a lot of fun. It's not as fast as my motorcycle, but I never cared about speed. I really like the storage. A couple questions if I may. I noticed circular display between the tachometer and speedometer sometimes went da...

Re: New Old Stock 2015 Forza ABS Owner

I ordered the screen from Ermax. They said it should be here in 5-10 days. I hope it works out.

Re: New Old Stock 2015 Forza ABS Owner

Thanks GN2. Would I have to modify the Ermax screen in order for it to fit, like drill holes? Thanks again.

Re: New Old Stock 2015 Forza ABS Owner

I spoke with the dealer. They said the tall windscreen has been discontinued by Honda and they cannot order one. Unless one pops up on eBay, I'm probably out of luck there. There are a few sites that say they have them, but I doubt they've been updated. Anyone know anything about the Givi screen? It...

New Old Stock 2015 Forza ABS Owner

Hello Gals and Guys - I just bought a new old stock 2015 Honda Forza 300 ABS. When I got my motorcycle license back in 2012, I really wanted to get a scooter, but the only ones I could find at the time were 500 pound maxi-scooters or 150cc scooters that weren't a good fit because I live in a rural a...

Re: New Old Stock 2015 Forza 300 ABS

Thanks for the replies. I'd agree, the newer Forza would make a more compelling choice. I wouldn't think the additional 30 pounds, nor the 4 HP the Forza gives up would make a significant difference, but I hear conflicting reports. One person says sure the Forza will do 75MPH all day long while the ...

New Old Stock 2015 Forza 300 ABS

Hello Gals and Guys - There's a dealer near me that's got a new old stock 2015 Forza 300 with ABS. I'm debating between the Forza and the Xmax 300. I'd probably lean towards the Xmax cause there's a dealer a mile from my house and I think it's the better scooter, but I can't flat foot it, which I wo...
