Hi Newbie here

[Wulfy]

Hi folks,

Been lurking on the forums for a few weeks now after gaining my CBT in may currently on a loan Kymco 125 agility (awful thing) after coming from a Honda Vision 50 (great little bike) and have been eyeing up a PCX 125 (in red) my usage is a 10 mile run each way to work on a daily bases with possible extra runs to a 3rd facility around 12 miles there and back, all these roads are generally 40mph back roads or 60mph dual carriage ways and some driving around city sometimes, I do want to do longer runs (about 80-90 miles each way) to visit family etc and would stick to a/b roads as limited to not being able to drive on motorways but while i hear it all the time longer runs go for a geared bike i have really taken to the honda scooter range especially as being in the IT industry i dont want to have to lug all my kit on my back all the time and want to utilise the huge amount of space and economy a scooter provides

Now like i say i've had my eye on a PCX 125 but have been increasingly interested in the Forza 125 as ive read it's got the longer legs and handles longer trips better any suggestions would be appreciated would the pcx handle the trips just as well? or is the forza in this situation worth the extra investment.

Buy either

They've both got a sparrows fart of power but the PCX will get you where you need to go, cheaply and with a smile on your face.

The performance is similar but it depends if the extra bells and whistles are what you want. It's a £1400 price difference between them, so quite a bit more to buy the Forza.

Welcome to the forum buy the way.

How does it handel in the wet ? the vision (stock) didnt bother at all but that was a 50cc just been out in light drizzle on the kymco and almost ended up going round simple corners sideways (at 7 mph)

[Bash On!]

How does it handel in the wet ?

You just have to bach carefully so you don't baroque your scooter.

Where do you live? I have a 110 Vision for sale. Used it around Bristol for a year and you can't beat it. Though I doubt I'd fancy doing 80 miles on any 125.

West Midlands (telford) Surprised this place dosnt have listings category tbh.

Really got my heart set on a pcx or possibly a forza.

The way I look at it is 80 mile journey cant be all that bad on a 125 enjoy the scenery without trying to set land speed records.

best regards,

Wulfy
