Re: 5000 Mile Service

From day one I had the feeling that the PCX parking brake wasn't even connected to anything. On or off didn't seem to make a difference, so I never even thought about using it. The Forza parking brake is rock solid and comes in real handy when parking on a steep hill. Even without the indicator on t...

Re: Forza 300/A vibration issues

I use my Forza almost exclusively for commuting to work. My 13 mile each way daily commute is a one stop sign,very light traffic 70+mph ride. I've experienced no vibration whatsoever.

Re: You would not believe what I saw at a Dealer today!

I've put 1500 miles on the Forza in 2 months. Only gone 1 day without riding it. Only managed to put 3200 miles on the PCX in 2 years.

Re: Picked up one of our Forzas...80+ MPH Interstate Cruisin

Nice review Skuuter. Nothing to disagree with in my own experience so far with the Forza. As for wind buffeting, I seem to experience less wind buffeting on the Forza at 70 mph with the stock screen than I did on the PCX at 55 mph with the medium Givi screen. No doubt due to the lower seat height an...

What's that appendage under the legshield/fairing?
It's the parking brake. I think it's only on North America models. Works great, unlike the one on the PCX. Even has an indicator on the dash when engaged.

Re: Forza has arrived.

I've only had mine up to 75mph so far. I know it will go faster than that but being able to cruise comfortably at 70mph and still get decent mpg's is good enough for me. I'm surrounded by 65-70mph highways here in Austin. It's nice to be able to take the best route to my destination instead of tryin...

Re: Honda NSS300 Forza

Just back from the dealer with my new Forza 300 ABS. 16 mile ride home on back roads. Gets up to speed quickly and then cruises comfortably and effortlessly at 7000 RPM at 70 MPH on flat road. Not much left on the throttle after that. Pegged it briefly at 75 MPH. At 6'1" 180 lbs. leg room is eq...

to AVOID on the road

Entire back bumper of the car in front of me fell off. Ran right over it doing 58 mph on the PCX, no damage whatsoever!

At a 4 way, 2 way, 8 way, whatever way. He who hesitates goes last. Just pay attention and be ready when its your turn. Don't be a jerk, but don't be indecisive either.

Riding with full beam on all the time.
