Re: Givi vs Honda Screen

I installed the Forza tall windshield. I am six feet tall. The wind no longer hits me in the chest at higher speeds, but I still get full blast wind into the helmet face. It's noisy in the helmet. I am thinking I might fabricate an addition made of plexiglass that will force the wind higher and over...

Fork seal replacement cost

I hit a nasty pothole a while back and created a leak in my Forza's fork seal. It was leaking out the left side, so riding was not a problem while I waited for my appointment at Honda. A right side leak will drip onto the front tire and make safe riding impossible. So, yesterday I got the call from ...

Re: Will be getting new 2014 Forza next Friday

Just for the record, I'm 70 and ride my Forza at highway speed (and more;-) regularly. I've had mine up to 85 mph (137 kph) when required. We've added the taller windshield and the box for the rear seating area on mine and just the windshield on hers. I find myself wishing the windshield were a few ...

Re: Forza Shocks

Thank you for all the help with this problem. We have had the foam in the seat professionally reduced by about an inch then reupholstered. She now has better control of her Forza when she is stopped and she'll safely ride for her bike license test soon.

Re: Forza Shocks

I only have to lower her about half an inch to achieve heel touchdown. At the dealer yesterday, I checked to see if Honda has a 16 inch shock absorber for the rear wheel that I could use to replace the 17 inch Forza shocks, but there seems to be nothing available. Is anyone aware of a shorter replac...

Re: Forza Shocks

Yes, I have set the shock to the lowest point so the are as 'soft' as they can be set. She already has three inch heels on her boots. And this might be of interest. I attended a motor cycle show a month ago and Honda was there. I happened to ask the right fellow about the problem and what could be d...

Forza Shocks

I have two Forzas. One for me and one for her. She is a bit short. Event with three inch boot heels she cannot put the heels down on the ground when she stops. This is instable and I have repainted her bike twice because it has fallen over on her. Solution - remove an inch of the rear shock springs?...
