Re: New Forza $2,999......

Man, what a ripping deal how much was the freight and set up if you don't mind me asking. $3300 OOD (out the door). Since I was out of state and it was a vehicle sale, I did not have to pay tax. I have to assume that is the NON ABS model for that price... I would not buy the NON ABS Forza, even for...

Re: 2017 Model Forza, Will it exist in the USA ???

The Forza is my hobby and cheaper than psychiatric treatment. There is no denying that it costs money. Hi Dave, That makes more sense, I was thinking you spent that much in purchase and repairs. For total purchase / operating costs over the years, that is not bad. Do you use the Forza for work or t...

Re: 2017 Model Forza, Will it exist in the USA ???

IIt has cost me $8769.83 so far. I have 40069 kilometers on the odometer. So was this a good deal? Is the 2017 Forza worthy of consideration? Hi Dave, How do you possibly spend 8769.83 on a Honda Forza. ??????????????????????? I could purchase a Forza, replace the entire engine, and still not spend...

Re: 2017 Model Forza, Will it exist in the USA ???

The ADV simply isn't a scooter, its a motorbike for men who like to dress up as Lara Croft. ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. The ADV is a motorcycle in every way, NOT a scooter. It is based on the NC750 Dual clutch transmission option. They only difference of the Honda X ADV from the NC750 Dual clutch automatic m...

Re: Speed ?

Although if I found a Forza for three grand, I would be hard pressed to turn it down. Good hunting. Hi GeorgeSK, Thank you for the review of both scooters. What you post confirms the conclusion that a Forza is by far the best scooter for me. Although it will be a while, going to see what the 2017's...

Only 250 MPH out of a 750, that is totally unacceptable... If you had gotten a Honda, it would have probably had a top speed of at least 300 MPH :D

Re: Speed ?

I have a 2013 PCX150 and It is almost fast enough. The engine size is almost doubled in the Forza as is the weight. You could not be more utterly WRONG. Did you even look at the weights of both scooters, this is grade school level math..... If I were giving an exam to a child, I would expect better...

We have the same geographically confused people in Canada who think that Toronto is the centre of the universe. .

Re: Storage Space of PCX150

Regarding the storage space under the seat of the PCX150, is there enough room for say, a gallon of milk and a loaf of bread? If you want more storage space under the seat, forget the PCX150, and get the Honda Forza. Not only will you have underseat storage, you will be able to drive it on the inte...

Re: BIKE SHELTER

For that price, you could easily build a shed, that is 10 times better, more protection, last longer, and you would have room to put more things in besides just the Forza. What I see in that picture is just a normal motorcycle cover, that is of a shape to attach directly to the ground instead of put...

Re: 2017 Model Forza, Will it exist in the USA ???

Majesty doesn't have ABS which is why I don't have one. I agree with that 1000 %, I would not even consider a bike or scooter that does not have ABS anymore. I have ridden for many years, and have better skills than most. I am also smart enough to know the limitations of all humans, and that ABS is...

Re: 2017 Model Forza, Will it exist in the USA ???

I also expect it to cost quite a bit more than the current Forza. If imore expensive than a Forza, it won't succeed. The Peugeot Satelis 400i is the same price as a Forza, but crucially Peugeot does not yet have ABS fitted across its range. When ABS goes on the Satelis 400i whatever price it is, th...

Re: Woof! A warning!

It's a key in another form. Can thieves hot wire the new bikes or are they locked down to ECU level with no hope without the new fancy keys? In the case of the Forza, and other scooters, I would not worry about anyone trying to hot wire it. At that point, it would be must faster, safer, easier, les...
