Re: Adjustment procedure for rear shocks on Honda Forza 300?
A long story but I was not happy with a very worrying and unsettling steering wobble which mostly evidenced itself when slowing down under engine breaking and with a light touch on handlebars. Dealership replaced front Pirelli Diablo Scooter Tyre with a new Pirelli Diablo Rosso Scooter Tyre under wa...

Re: Adjustment procedure for rear shocks on Honda Forza 300?
PS I have had a 2019 model Forza 300 for a eight months now. Both rear shocks on the latest model can be easily adjusted (once again I settled on position No 4) - No shock bolt removal or muffler bolt loosening required. Just to digress - My new bike had quite a death wobble until finally, after a c...

Re: Adjustment procedure for rear shocks on Honda Forza 300?
Not long after buying my Forza in 2014 I too needed to change the rear shock settings a number of times til I finally settled on position No 4. When I first tried to adjust the muffler side shock I just could not do it even with the offset tool provided by Honda because I could not properly access t...

Re: New Forza 125 owner
I wear earplugs too to protect my hearing especially as most of my riding is on country roads, dual carriageways and motorways, but unfortunately I have found that they have not solved any of my wind noise / turbulence issues by themselves. I think the sports X-Creen has a width of around 10.2 inche...

Re: New Forza 125 owner
PS There are two methods of fitting a touring X-Creen i.e. Clamping or mounting - If clamped overall the screen plus spoiler is slightly higher than if the X-Creen is mounted. A mounted (fixed) Xcreen looks very tidy but requires holes to be drilled in the screen whereas clamping is easy, quick and ...

Re: New Forza 125 owner
I have a Forza 300 at the moment but had a Forza 125 for most of last year and in some ways I would prefer that I still had it. Anyway I am also 5ft 11" and found the wind noise (whatever the screen position) was really horrendous on the Forza 125 so much so it really spoiled my enjoyment of wh...

Re: 2013 Forza 300 starting problem
Having had various maxi scoots most tend to have one brake lever / micro switch safety procedure starting system although on one of my scoots ( a Yamaha I think) either brake lever could be applied to activate the starter as each had a micro switch. When I first owned my first Honda SW 125 (have had...

Re: What's this for?
Yes a tie down bracket I think it is.
I find it useful for attaching a padlock & chain to, which in turn is secured to a ground anchor, when scooter is stored in garage.

Forza 125 / Forza 300
I had an Forza 300 for most of this year and found it to be a brilliant all round scooter. I especially liked its performance, handling, service intervals and associated costs however I took a fancy to a Forza 125 when they were launched and a few weeks ago I decided to try a demo out and got hooked...

Horobags.
Thanks very much for the feedback.
I will probably now invest in one and fit it to the Ermax (10 cm) taller touring screen I have purchased and am waiting on.

Re: my new forza
Hi Horobags.
I like your wind deflector.
Is it an MRA X-Creen - if so is it the sport one or the larger touring one ?
I find the OEM screen very noisy and turbulent even on the highest setting - How effective is the spoiler on the F 125 ?

Re: RPM meter (Forza 125 and older 300) - what use is it?
Whilst riding a maxi scooter RPM awareness is important for the reasons Gn2 states and is especially so in the case of smaller capacity maxi scoots such as the F125. Whilst riding you need to be able to take advantage of the max torque and or power available, as and when required, depending upon req...

Re: 600 Mile Service in Progress
I bought a used Forza 300 and found the rear suspension to be way too hard so much so it spoiled the ride. I was pleased to find that the previous owner had set the rear shocks to their hardest position and set about adjusting them down a notch by using the two piece tool supplied in the toolkit. I ...
