Palm Springs to Monteray Beach on my new Honda Forza

Post by dsuzuki87 »

Hi Guys,

My name is David and the Honda Forza scooter is my first bike period. My main hesitation was whether or not I would be able to take the bike on long road trips which I really wanted to be able to do. Well I finally tested it out and took my Forza from Palm Springs all the way up the Pacific Coast Highway to Monteray CA which is over 300 miles away. I must say the bike performed admirably and I kept up with 80 mph highway 101 on my way home. I weight 175 and am 5'7 for those who were wondering. If you have any questions I'd be happy to answer them. In the 3 months I have had the scooter I have but 3,000 miles on it. Sadly I am recently divorced, and riding this fun little machine really melts the stress away!

Try for Alaska next ride. Or Florida if you are old.

Well, British Columbia is just a bit further up the street....
On my scoot, getting there is WAY more than half the fun!

It does not get any better than the PCH ......on a scooter, motorcycle, in a convertible or on foot (have done the latter three).....at least not in the USA. Sit on a cliff with the waves and wind drowning out everything. Heals the heart and head.
Sorry for your loss......
The Forza will help.
Ride safe.
