Re: The only luck I have, is bad luck.

Kat,
Glad you are semi-OK. Better to read about it here than in the news media. Get well quick....

Re: top box for forza 300

45L Givi and made my own mounting bracket because they weren't available (US side) when I installed.
Good setup for my 1-2 week summer trips.

I like that pic. Nice seat too.
The road looks like the one I live on...gravel and pot holes.

Re: My ride

M1G,
Similar weather in Alabama. I rode 350 miles today, 38F degrees when I started out 7 am and about 66F I think about 4:30 when I arrived home.
I was just short of halfway to Slidell.....Riding a skuder is Rx for PMS :D

Re: Off the clock!

I took the initial post as a challenge. Now that the weather is warming up, my mpg is improving.
74.9 mpg US is the best I've been able to accomplish. Non highway mileage.

Re: Forza accessories?

gn2, I'm lacking knowledge with the HOW of ABS. On a cage, the computer compares all tires rotation, but on a motorcycle I thought it only checks the pulse of the rotation sensors. The tires on the bike are already different size front/back. My Suzuki had ABS and worked fine with a larger profile re...

Re: ABS Here's why...

And.....
We have countless reasons to ride scooters that are less safe than a cage.
By the same logic, it is madness to ride a motorcycle/scooter.
Guess I'm mad!!!!!! :lol:
But, ABS is the better choice if we are to remain in our madness.

Re: Forza accessories?

You could go with a taller profile tire. Not much room. You can also go up to 150 on width, but much larger than this would take a chance on rubbing the side. Also take in to account your shock settings and weight or a taller profile tire could be rubbing the storage box on bumpy roads. The Silverwi...

Re: Handguards

Maybe some racing hand guards like these from Moose: http://www.amazon.com/Moose-Racing-Competition-Handguard-Protector/dp/B002OMLEAC/ref=pd_bxgy_auto_text_y Since there aren't any made specifically for the Forza (that I'm aware of), you'll need a universal type mount to the handle bars or the mirro...

Re: So long Pcx , welcome forza

SC1,
Congrats. That's good MPG for the first time also. Mine was 57 on first (dealer) fill up.
Now, for the gas gauge (because you will ask if you haven't read it in the other posts), as soon as it hits the red, you have about 1 gallon left.

Re: Buying Used Questions

Most states require color, VIN, mileage, Brand, model, year on the bill of sale and to bring the scooter down for inspection (verify the vehicle) at the time of title app. There should be a DMV site for your state on the web with a list of the requirements or you could just call your local DMV (or s...
