Re: You would not believe what I saw at a Dealer today!
yea I agree with meissinger... I had a pcx150 with dr sliders but im 6'3" 210 and I would always end up doing like 50 to 55 up hills.. and my drive is up hill from Sacramento to Pollock pines California... its a trade off. they are both decent bikes. also in windy areas you really get blown around on the PCX...doesn't happen as bad on the forza.. The forza is a more comfortable ride for bigger people...it cruises and it will be much more comfortable on long trips....also if your really going to do a scooter for 50 to 60 miles a day, every day then the forza makes better sense. I was ended up getting like 75 to 80 mpg on the PCX because I was going up hills a lot and cranking the throttle open all the time to get as much speed as possible. the forza will not need that I that will be reflected in the MPG.... if the u.s. had their shit straight we would have the selection and support with the kind of bikes you see in Asia and Europe... If I absolutely had to choose I would reluctantly choose the forza only for the ability to get decent mileage and the ability to drag me up hills at 65 to 75 mph...the forza is consistently 10 to 15 mph faster in all occasions. I must say though that i really miss the size and maneuverability of the PCX.. the forza is a tank...

Half an inch wider and less than ten inches longer.
Tank it ain't.

I guess you could rather say, the PCX is very nice and light.

You could but despite the light weight its very slow.sendler2112 wrote:I guess you could rather say, the PCX is very nice and light.

I think after 237.4 years we would no longer be classified as colonists.gn2 wrote:Just speaking to the colonials in their own mangled version of the Queen's my old fruit.

Give me a break. We kicked the King out back in the 1780's (no, we were not free of the King in 1776. That is when we declared that we wouldn't take his crap any more.) Notice that they didn't let us "colonists" have our freedom. We faught tooth and nail to get free, and paid in blood for the right to screw up our own lives...and now we have politicians who 'rule' us about the same as a king would except that we don't have to pay for castles and life of ease till they die of old age, and their kids and grand kids, and great grand kids...etc. Though they do absolutely nothing for the country.

You know very little about history as you've conveniently "forgotten" about Elvis
