I can't figure out where to connect the other end. The only hole I can find is in a tab on the metal frame up under the plastic bodywork, but it's too big.

"Mud flaps" falling off

Today I noticed a piece of rubber sticking out from under the body panel just above the rear tire. It looks like a shield to keep dirt from getting on the engine. The one on the left side is hanging, and the one on the right side is gone. Time for a trip to the dealer. Just a heads-up for other Forz...

Re: Forza talk.

Is the mpg meter accurate? Have you cross checked it with your own measurements? I got a GPS mount the other day, and find that the speedometer is perfectly accurate at any speed. The odometer measured 24.9 miles on a 25 actual mile test run. The MPG meter is generally very close to what I'm actual...

Re: Forza talk.

I haven't double-checked, but I've ordered a handlebar GPS mount off eBay and will be using that to measure the miles per tank.

Re: Forza talk.

I took this photo of my Forza this morning. After getting its 600-mile maintenance, I reset the MPG meter. After a few miles of stoplight-to-stoplight, followed by a few dozen miles of 45-50mph and only a few stoplights, ending with a few more miles of in-town traffic, and here's where the MPG meter...

Would anyone use/trust the standard toolkit. Even a BMW one? On a scale of one to ten they barely scrap a two
I have tons of tools, so it's no big deal, but the wrench to adjust the shock pre-load would be nice.

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

For those who have a Forza, what's in your tool kit? I got a license plate for mine today and went to put it on, and the only tool in the tool kit was a screwdriver. Is that it, or should I contact my dealer to get the rest of the kit? That's yer lot I'm afraid The online PDF owners manual (I assum...

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

Nice review. I haven't taken mine to 80 mph yet, but (and maybe it's because I haven't had a bike in 12 years and/or am used to much bigger bikes) I thought it handled a little squirrely at 70. Seems like you just think of changing direction and it steers. Wind gusts and traffic turbulence also seem...

Re: Rode the Forza Today...

good review, Skuuter. I have 2 questions that I know you can answer off the top of your head and I don't have to google just now... what is the cc size of the Forza? and, what is the seat height? I am 5/6" and I can flat foot it on the PCX. will I be able to do that on the Forza? I'm also 5' 6...

Re: Honda NSS300 Forza

Do you have to ride it "toes down" or can you get a reasonable feet forward position despite the steep running board angle and pronounced seat hump? I find the seating position to be almost perfect (I'm 5' 6"). The horizontal portion of the running board seems to be angled just a lit...

Re: Honda NSS300 Forza

Its not red, its RED . Looks good, I'm sure you'll enjoy it! :D What's that appendage under the legshield/fairing? I've put 75 miles on it and it's perfect so far. I think that thingie is the aft end of the brake cable. Just got back from a quick ride. I have to be at work in 7 hours and haven't sl...

Re: Honda NSS300 Forza

YEEEEEE...HAAAAAAA!!! Got my Forza ABS this morning. I'll write up a review in the next day or so. In the mean time, here are a few photos I took on the ride home. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going back out to put a few more miles on it. http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3700/9636908199_641f33d09e_b.j...

Re: Honda NSS300 Forza

My Forza is still in transit. My local dealer is only getting a non-ABS model, and is getting mine from another dealer. Bummer. And I've got two days off and beautiful weather. WAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Re: Honda NSS300 Forza

I joined this forum last week, when I was thinking about getting a PCX. After more thinking and research I bought a Forza ABS today. The dealer will get it tomorrow, but I'll probably have to wait until Monday or Tuesday to go get it. Can't wait.

Windshield removal

Hey everybody, I haven't bought my PCX yet (but I already have cash in hand). Still doing research. Love this forum and it's answered a lot of my questions. One thing I'd like to know is if it's OK to remove and replace an aftermarket windshield (looking at Givi and Ermax) depending on the weather a...
