That reminds me of a joke......
Daddy, why is it that brides always wear white when they get married?
Son, kitchen applances always come in white.

Re: new forza in black
Slogger...enjoy your holiday thinking off how much you will enjoy the Forza when you get back....It really is a great machine...
You will find that the fuel gauge wont move from the full for a while but when it does move it moves quick
However I am getting 86/87 mls per UK gallon...both as per the reading on the scoot and from calculating on refilling
Only done 450 mls however so limiting my top speed to 50mph.
I also suspect that at the lower level of tank measure reading there is loads of fuel left but not willing to chance it...yet.
One thing...I am finding the suspension a bit hard on bumpy roads...but just a small complaint..hoping as the bike ages it softens slightly.

Re: new forza in black
Slogger...didnt know the suspension could be adjusted?..could do so on my SWing 125 cc but wasnt aware on the Forza.
Must look the owners book again...cause I didnt notice mention of that.
How do you adjust?
and thanks for mentioning
