The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

I'm currently feasting on your Vespa videos. Not only informative but the editing is absolutely excellent too. Thank you.

The SH39 is just about perfect for the PCX. Looks good on your bike.

My PCX has the original City Grips and they are very good. My SYM Jet 14 has City Grip 2 which are also great. I also have a J300 with the 2's and have no complaints. However, scooter forums across the globe always have those who don't like them, in fact some hate them, so it must all be down to per...

Yes, Puig do make very good screens and the ones you mention will fit just about any small scooter. I recently bought the Puig Traffic windshield for a Kymco Agility 50cc and I noticed that there was a wide variation on prices being asked, so best to shop around.

Here's just one example

Another happy Forza owner. Really well screwed together. Great package. Still in showroom condition after 16 months although I do like to pamper it.

Yes, I liked that.

IN the early 70's I worked in a Victorian thread mill in my home town as a semi-skilled engineer responsible for day to day maintenance of the twisting frames shown in the pic. I had around 60 of these to look after and the heat and noise were way above anything which would be tolerated these days, ...

My 2018 Forza 300 is also a year old and remains a joy to ride. It still looks like it did on Day 1, but is a bit quicker now. Really is a lovely piece of engineering.

85 degrees F in Scotland today. The whole summer has been warmer than usual.

They were Borrani rims, made in Italy

I had a Trophy 250 a while back. Great bikes, very punchy, but I could never get the hang of the old Brit foot controls

Just checked mine (slightly lower mileage) and all good.

Useful heads up though.

Microfibre cloth - secure it to the bike with velcro.

They are really great straight out of the box but start to shine after the first 1000 miles. Can't fault mine.

Kawasaki copying the Triumph marketing strategy - selling more the image than anything substantial. HD, BMW and Ducati all do it very well too. Honda, to a certain extent, have done it with the new Cub. I'm not saying that there are no decent motorcycles within that lot but water cooling suddenly ga...

Thanks for the Itchy Boots link - well worth watching.

I have a new Forza and a 29" inseam. It's a lovely scooter but anything shorter in leg length might just be a little awkward but not impossible. I never rode the older model but, with hindsight, I probably would start off down that route and only upgrade if absolutely necessary (can't think why...

Bigger (300) scoots are generally better in every way but I've never been able to re-capture that crazy fun element that you get from a PCX. But, if you must do highway work then bigger is better.

Mmmmm, a CG125? I recently brought one back to life and there's definitely something charming about their rugged simplicity but oh dear, it's not a quick bike at all. Honda introduced the overhead valves in order to combat the problems with the older overhead cam design which required correct mainte...
