Re: Rear LEDs?

Not a Forza or PCX I know, but should I get the Forza, something similar to this is likely the first thing I'll do. The lights under the top case are from Hyperlights are two stage runnning/brake lights and will flash 5 times then stay on bright when you hit the brakes. The top case lights are from ...

Re: rear mud flap assembly

In many pictures I notice a tail end configuration that is much more esthetically pleasing to me. I'm looking for information on tearing down the exaggerated mud flap and license plate assembly and doing something like this... Does anyone have the proper terminology of this area of the bike so I ca...

Re: Back Rest

Here's a backrest on a Honda SH150 seat, as an example: http://www.utpr.com/sh150.html Here's one on a Forza (yeah, a Forza) : http://www.utpr.com/forza.html The last time I conversed with Utopia, they were willing to work with my seat to create a backrest. That was a few years ago. A phone call or...

Re: Motorcycle Helmets

I never ride with it flipped up. The scorpion converts to open face by taking the front off, and putting on the open face visor

Re: Motorcycle Helmets

I've settled on the Scorpion EXO 900 flip-up. Can convert to an open face in about a minute if one so desires. Good venting, comfy, no more noisy than any other helmet I've ever had, flip down sun visor. Hideously bright hi-vis :)

Re: ATGATT or Squidding: What do YOU ride with?

Helmet, textile jacket (longer touring style), gloves, heavy jeans (not good enough I know), over-the-ankle boots. If(when) I get the Forza, I will be getting pants as well, or at least overpants. Funny story... two years ago, I pulled up to a light next to a college student on a metro - he was wear...

Re: Rear shock options

We have a 2014 Honda Forza 300 and still find that the seat height is a bit too high for me even with the shocks adjusted to the lowest pre-load setting. I can manage, but would prefer if I can buy a set of aftermarket rear shock absorbers that is about 1" to 2" shorter (in over all lengt...

Darn. That's not very much. Not a deal breaker though, the Forza is still at #1 on the list.

Alternator Question

Hi All, New here, and have been looking at a couple of 300's... The Sym Citycom 300i and the new Forza. After seeing the Forza in person yesterday and getting a chance to sit on it, it has jumped to the top of the list. I do have one question that the dealer couldn't answer, and is not answered on t...
