Re: 2016 Forza is here...
I have just done that. I had a 2005 Burgman 650 and sold it and bought a 2014 Honda Forza.
The Forza is Fantastic. I love it, but it does not have the power of the Burgman 650.
I don't need the power of the 650, and this is why I switched to the Forza.
The Honda Forza will do 70mph all day down the Freeway, but that is it. don't try to go faster, the engine is maxed out.
The Burgman 650 can go 90mph.
As far as handling, the Forza less weight, a little smaller and compact. It handles great, brakes are great and gets 70MPG.
I am very happy with my decision to downgrade from Burgman 650 to Honda Forza.

Re: 2016 Forza is here...
I downsized from a 900 Daytona to a PCX 125, does that count?

They should have done that to the ancient triumph Daytona in the 90s
You'd have one?

Re: 2016 Forza is here...
Yes and you will really like the ride! much smother!!! Plus fuel consumption.
Re: 2016 Forza is here...
I currently own a yellow 2003 Reflex NSS 250 with 50,000 miles. I figure its about time to replace it. I would buy a new NSS 300 if it came in yellow. The reason for the color yellow being safety. My Reflex also has modulated headlight and brake light systems. On the Yahoo Reflex board a poll with respect to favorite color yellow was the hands down winner. What the hell is wrong with Honda not offering what may be the most popular color. I will not purchase a new bike and spend the money to have it repainted. I may purchase a used Silverwing and have it repainted. Anyone know how to find out if Honda will offer a yellow NSS 300 in the near future?

Here is my "lemon ice" yellow Forza. Looks more green in this light, but good road visibility.

Factory colour in the UK too, but not for the Forza.

Re: 2016 Forza is here...
I appreciate your opinion. My biggest issue with the Forza is the narrow rear frame, since it would be difficult make a wider pillion for my pillion passenger, Pugsley, a 33# Pug dog. I've done some research, but no luck finding a possible solution.` The pillion area would have to be at least as large as the Burgman 650.mikecalderone wrote:I have just done that.

In reality they are different beasts for different jobs.
Re: 2016 Forza is here...
I went from a 2014 Forza to a new 400 Burgman.Treeman wrote:I'm considering downsizing from my Burgman Executive to a new Forza. Has anyone on this forum switched from a 650 maxi scooter to a Forza, and if so, opinions?
Wish I could have both. Forza is a great bike!
Not a highway 80mph rocket. ....but it will do everything else with class. And smoothly.

Re: 2016 Forza is here...
The shiny blue and lemon-green colours should be widely available here - usually only see white, black, red, grey or now the odd brown ones. To be honest, most pizza bikes I see are black or red and most of the pcx's I've seen are white, then black - not seen many other colours in London on my rides.
