Re: Did everyone get Dunlops?
How are they holding up? Same/better/worse than PCX stock tires? How about compared to Michelin City Grip tires/tyres. Love the City Grips on my Kymco in the wet! Just superb grip for rainy braking...I ride 'like a senior on a scooter' so don't know about race cornering with 'em. Front looks like i...

why the PCX??
I am asking this because I am genuinely interested in your responses. I'm a new Forza owner, but looked hard at the PCX that you all own. What is it about these PCXs that inspire such an avid following? I read that they are the most popular small scoot in Europe....and I see videos of folks riding t...

Re: top box for forza 300
This is the Bestem 929 as it comes in a box. A row of rear and side LEDS as running lights with the ignition on, a second series of LEDS on that band and a group of LEDS on the lid with the brakes on. In short... a lot of rear and side facing lights on all the time the scoot is running, and a bunch ...

Re: photo mirror extensions
Odd. When you click through the link and check compatibility, the page claims that the product is not compatible. You pic suggests otherwise - did you have to do anything funky? I had a coffee and a Moon Pie while fitting these. But I didn't think anyone was looking. Sorry. Other than reminding you...

Did everyone get Dunlops?
Does Honda fit these Dunlops on all Forzas around the globe? Also, are there any other plants producing these, other than Honda/Thailand? (I asked my salesman where this scoot was made. He said, "Taiwan, where else!" I said, "Well, I'm asking because I can't find the sticker with fact...

Forza shock adjustment SOLVED
OK, I read that you can turn the pre-load on the Forza rear shocks by hand. Folks say that you do not need a proper spanner tool for this. Looking at that right side rear shock...there's no way I'm going to get my hand in there to grab and turn anything that has some resistance! I figured I'd try th...

Bestem or LEDs on the rear?
Does anyone have a Bestem 929 on their Forza? Here are some pix of it on my Kymco with the key on, key off, and brakes applied. This box holds 2 full face helmets, and comes with the LED strip of running lights installed, a seperate brake light on the lid and a second series of LEDs which come on wi...

I usually head out about 5:30am for my leisure w/e rides. It was another great sky this morning. http://i57.tinypic.com/2qu441x.jpg Still in the break-in period according to my owner's manual. MUCH shorter for this Honda compared to my Kymco. But probably will extend it beyond 300 miles.(already cha...

Re: Upgraded spark plug for PCX?
Just looking into what kind of plug my Forza has...and came across this thread. Always interesting to hear guys talk oils (synth. or dino?), gas (reg. or prem.) and lately, spark plugs (reg, copper, iridium) Here's my experience on my 163cc Kymco, A/C, EFI. The new scoot had a new NGK stock plug. Af...

Mirror extensions
These worked well for me on my new Forza. The allen screw/bolt is slightly too long...bottoms out in the brake lever housing hole. I just added one thick split washer and it snugged right up with no further issues. Wasn't certain if these would work....the lefty threads on both sides of the Forza co...

Re: The scoot I came from
Thanks. Kymco makes most of them in Taiwan....but these LIKES were priced dropped by several hunded $.... and are now made in their plant in China. I've been all through the guts of this thing. It is pretty well constructed!gn2 wrote:A very nice example of what I call a Taiwalian scooter.

The scoot I came from
This was my entry scooter.... With the lighted Bestem box on my 2012 Kymco LIKE200iLX. (the Bestem more than doubles these lights when you touch the brakes) I learned a lot about servicing scooters with this little fellow. Rebuilt seat, Belt, Dr Pulleys, shocks, brakes, battery, Iridiums, Michelins,...
