The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

I completely missed the part about the cycleshell. Weird, seller should just try to do 2 transactions.

I offered to pay a little under KBB value when buying from the dealer which is 2140

I got ignored.

Kawasaki makes changes, look at the Ninja 300, was getting dusted by the Yamaha R3 than leapfrogs Yamaha by making the Ninja 400 and keeping the same price as the Ninja 300's MSRP.

Thanks for the replies. I'd agree, the newer Forza would make a more compelling choice. I wouldn't think the additional 30 pounds, nor the 4 HP the Forza gives up would make a significant difference, but I hear conflicting reports. One person says sure the Forza will do 75MPH all day long while the...

The PCX is the lightest Japanese 150cc scooter out there. There is the Yamaha Smax, heavier and without question has a more top heavy feel in pushing it around and riding it. I have never ridden a scooter as easy to ride and manage than the PCX 125/150. I guess you could try Kymco/Lance/Sym. They al...

I'm 49.
I think I want to add a Ninja 300 or Ninja 400 to the stable. Why? Motorcycles promote cognitive thinking. All that shifting and 4 limbs to ride the thing does the brain some good.

All you need is a top box. It sure is nice to buy a scooter without the expense and installation a of windshield. The 1st gen screen was useless unless you live near the equator.

I use to own the PCX125, it is hell of a lot of fun. I only sold it because I needed the 300's freeway speed. I would love to add the PCX150 when its time to add another scooter to the garage. I don't see any trade offs to buying used Honda Scooters. It will sell unlike some other brands. And you do...

I just use 10W-40. Protects better on blistering summer days.
10W-30 is better for serious cold weather but your bike will be in the garage.

Will you be riding in summer? Of course.
Dead of winter- Probably not

10W-40 FTW

I have a 30" inseam and the Old Forza. I can back it up with my legs pretty easy unless Its an incline than I get up and push it backwards, with the new model that is not possible I think. We don't get the new Forza in the States yet, from pics it does look very much modernized and upgraded. I'...

I get a kick out of these size of an Asian posts. Maybe the previous generation were short. Not now. One trip to South Korea and China I bet your eyes will be on these babes everywhere that are now 5 6 to 5 9.

I have test ridden a Vespa once. The 300 GTS model from 2017. Power wise I just rode it on the street and it is a quiet silky motor with excellent low end pull.
Handling is average at best to me, I just can't get a feel from those tiny tires.

I too replaced my levers with these. Made in China, but I can hardly tell the difference between these and the fancy expensive ones at Revzilla for example. https://www.amazon.com/FXCNC-Racing-Adjustable-Forza125-2010-2018/dp/B07K1Y7F1C/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=forza+levers&qid=1555853825&s=gatew...

The most practical 2 wheel toy I ever had is the Forza 300. With a top box and windshield its like a mini touring bike to me. The ability to have multiple foot positions is a godsend. I might not ever go back to motorcycles due to this reason alone ( well the shifting part also). People are giving t...

One cup in the morning than one more source of caffeine late AM thats my cutoff unless its long distance or overnight driving. Its an addiction that would cause massive headaches to quit.

What did you not like about the RDX? I think Acura cars are wonderful espeically the interiors so well designed looking. Luxury and sporty.

I am a big Honda fan of course.

Previous Honda were

CBR250
CBR500
Pcx 125

Never left me with a dealer visit for unseen repairs.

I wish I bought the 1st generation Honda Fit. That bodystyle is unique with its rounded shape and they dont last long in the used market.

On Craiglist some email replies and responses sometimes go to spam box automatically. It would be in everyone's interest to have access to text or call option.

Love my ride..

I have HAD it up to my eyeballs in snow in Seattle. https://q13fox.com/2019/02/11/record-shattered-this-is-the-snowiest-february-since-at-least-1949/ The only saving grace to living here is the amount of Latinos who have moved here bringing great taco trucks and restaurants with them. I constantly (...
