The "thing" half way out of its crate is a Can-Am Spyder RTS. I'm at work now and took pics of the dash, seat, and glove compartment(F'n huge). If anyone wants detailed pics of something else, let me know and I'll post them tonight.

No Forza here in Sioux Falls, SD.

There is a sale on a Metropolitan though :roll:

Nice photo essay! Looks like that dash/glovebox area extends back a lot further than the PCX. I can see where that might make the rider feel a bit cramped. It looks significantly larger in the comparison photos, but you can sure see the family resemblance.

Thanks for posting the photos!

I like that the US version was able to keep the integrated turn signal lights and not the protruding ones like on the PCX. IMO it gives it a sleeker, more streamlined look.

It might be good in the rest of Thailand, but here in BKK it is too big to maneuver in and out of the cars. Maybe when I move back to the US or Canada I will consider one.

I like it. Is it ONLY going to be available in red in the US?

On Honda's website it's only shown in red.

Yes in the US it's only available in red. I need to clarify my earlier statement about preferring the Majesty's ergonomics over the Forza. I much prefer the leg room on the Majesty but the Forza is a more comfortable riding position, you almost feel like your "part of" the Forza compared to "on" Majesty, if that description makes any sense. lol I really think Honda dropped the ball by making it so cramped though.

Thanks for the photos and shame about the cramped riding. The big Integra scooter is also too cramped for me. If you are too tall or too short the integra is no good. At least with the forza they seem to be covering short folk. The PCX seat hump is so easy to remove but these contoured seats will be less easy to mod. Google failed to come up with anyone modding the old forza 250 seat either. Maybe I will get a ruckus ;)

I rode one yesterday,just got delivered the day before. It is awesome scoot,quality made,smooth and the 280cc motor has plenty torque and power. Did manage to hit 120kmh effortlessly in a short distance. Fairly well manoeuvrability from its size and actually its not that big or bulky as it seems from the photos next to the pcx. The seat is deff moddable with the hump,i doubt it cost more than $100 at the local auto trimmer to shorten it few inches. Im 183cm tall and have found that while not bothered as it was,that the seat could be couple of inches short would have been perfect.
However i wouldn't trade my pcx for it as they both roughly have same performance and i just couldn't swallow extra $4500 out of pocket to jump on one however much nicer it is...They're listed at $7700 ride away...http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/ee4 ... 7F3C-3185-

thanks for the detailed pix. Now, I'll just watch Craig's List for the one, somewhere nearby, that someone bought and then let sit in his or her garage after putting 200 miles on it. :)
