Re: HOW-TO VIDEO: Final drive oil change

Here in Thailand they always open the shock from the bottom to access that top bolt.

Re: Can you help me improve my Forza 350?

Can get a phone mount either to put on blank side mirror location on handlebar, 350 mirrors are moved to front fairing, or they make a hole here in Thailand on the middle panel of handlebar that comes off, I have this, Motowolf model, very good. But be aware, someone can take it off easily....! It's...

Re: Is it only bigger scooters that have ABS, traction control, front and rear discs?

Traction Control on bigger bikes only - although I heard a lot of complain about this, and I felt it once on my Forza 350 recently, the engine cuts off power to stop back wheel slipping, and that causes a weird feeling...! But for the best if you ask me, safer with than not having it... ABS availabl...

Re: Replace headlight lamp

My high beam died on bought sides at once - very strange, but it did. Low beam worked. Took it to Honda to check fuse etc., but they said it's the bulbs...! The guy replaced both and it worked. He put his hand under and took them out with ease, no need to look, just felt the cable, connector etc., I...

Re: I'm back with a Forza

I have also been away from this forum for a while, but I sold my Forza 2016 with 43k km, and bought a low mileage 7.6k km 3.5 year Forza 350. There are big differences in seat position and handling with the old gen 1, I would say for the better, unless you like more chopper lower seat position. I ha...

Re: BlownPiston?

I really doubt you can do too much damage riding the bike for a short time with oil cap off, as previous poster mentioned, check the oil level and keep riding for a while more..., if engine was really damaged you would notice it, it won't be smooth, low power, and strange noises and vibration..........

Re: Chinesium drive belts

Manual says 24,000km on mine, but I guess if not changed for 5 or more years it's best to take it out and have a look, can easily see if cracks appear if bend it a bit from inside and also outside, or generally if it's in bad condition... , they are pretty tough though if genuine....

Re: Power loss

Was it sudden engine cut off or gradual slow down...!? It could be a lot of things, if intermittent hard to diagnose... Check engine kill switch, maybe open and clean it if dirty and not work smoothly, also side stand switch could have a bad contact... Perhaps next check the spark plug, open and hav...

Re: 0-40 or more acceleration times

0-40mph is pretty useless , there is not much data on that to compare with. Most people test and discuss 0-100kph or 0-60mph acceleration stats and figures. So let us know what is your best figures for that, flat road, no wind behind, and include your weight. From what I see on internet stock PCX ha...

Re: 0-40 or more acceleration times

I'm guessing you have come on Forza forum to show off and brag about your unbelievable acceleration ..., but you are on the wrong forum , because with those numbers , if true, you need to go on 500cc or 600cc big bikes forum, because they normally do 0-100kph (or 0-60mph) in about 5 or 6 seconds.......

Re: Fuel capacity?

Reset your Trip A to zero after filling up your gas tank to full - this also resets your average fuel consumption meter. Then you can check your mileage on Trip A and fuel consumption and know how much more you can go before empty. The fuel gauge is pretty useless, I don't think I have ever looked a...

Yes, that's what I read and saw on YouTube too...

Re: Align handlebar and forks

Yes, I heard this and used to do it to my bicycles a lot, but if it's so loose that it can be aligned like that, wouldn't it go out of alignment on the next pothole or round a bend etc...!? I thought I need to find the place that holds the alignment together, loosen the bolts there , align and tight...

Align handlebar and forks

I had noticed a bit of mis-alignment with my handlebar a while back, well maybe shortly after I got the bike 2 years ago, but it's very very slight, basically I feel the right side of handlebar is a bit closer to me and it's not 100% vertical with the wheel... As it's hardly noticable I left it, but...

Re: Flasher bleeper

When I had smaller 125cc scooters, mine or rented, it was always the problem, not to notice the indicators are left ON after the turn. But with my old model Forza 2016 I never have this issue, because the dash is way forward in front of me, and big bright blinking lights, I can't miss it - it was on...

Re: just bought forza 300

I just saw a FB video of a Thai guy put on a Brembo caliper for rear brake. It's mounted below towards the back of the bike - kind of opposite original. He has the same problem of pads sticking and touching the disk after release, in fact I think he has sintered pads and they make a terrible noise a...
