Honda forza 300 start/stop

Post by mark1 »

Hi everyone,

Recently purchased Honda Forza 2018, latest model but have one issue - when i press red button (idling/stop) and leave it to lower seting (i assume it's start/stop) it idles constantly but if i press up (no start stop) it cuts out and wont start even if i press brake and try to start it manually.

I have used Honda Forza 125 before this one and on 125 same button performs 2 functions: idle or switches to start/stop function. I mistakenly thought it was the same function on 300 which it isn't..

It happens to all of us.

I did that trying to leave an accident while the RCMP were watching.
