Whoa..and you will See more on 10/14/20 - yep a Honda Forza "750" coming at'cha!
300 --> 750 That's a leap! What happened to their mid-range 300/400 - why bypass them?
Does Honda have more surprises? I declare! Empty those Pockets!

'Forza' 750 is simply a renamed facelifted NC750D Integra.
There's also a Forza350 been released onto the market in Thailand.
The SW400T and SW600T got chopped from the Honda range for 2017, didn't make the Euro4 cut sadly.

If they run true to form then it'll probably be available in every country ... except the ones we want/need it to be ...

The price of Forza 750 will be in the range of X-Adv 750, if not more, just very expensive, not in the same category... I think !

Forza 350 is priced about the same as 300 here in Thailand, I think the 300 will be discountinued and replaced. But due to Covid it's not selling much here in Thailand, I have seen only one so far.

Due to extra +4 HP it now competes with Xmax 300 in power/weight ratio, so Honda has done the trick ( Yamaha don't sell Xmax 400 in Thailand...!). Here equivalent mileage, year and condition, 1 or 2 years old, used Xmax has always been a bit more expensive than same used Forza 300. Perhaps 350 will put an end to that.

Forza 750 will be in the same category of X-Adv, very few sold here..., too expensive...

Yes agree and with a big facelift. Brothers from a different mother :lol:
I'm hoping the 350 makes it to the United States by Spring, I may? be interested. I'll see where life takes me first ;)

The bike or the wallet required to buy it?

it would be much weight for me to balance at stops. Might be a good bike for a younger guy

I know what you mean - I tried balancing a Gold Wing once at the dealers - ye gods they're heavy. I suspect it's more "practice and technique" than "brute strength", but it would make me nervous. I've even had a couple of close calls on the PCX when my foot has slid on a bit of loose gravel.

I had an Integra for 4 yrs, it's 238 kilos, the DCT system adds a lot of weight - you dont feel it when riding generally (maybe a bit on tight corners) and not at standstill either on a flat surface- the seat is a bit lower than the Forza so you can put both feet down more easily - but maneovering it with the engine off was always difficult for me, and I always had to be mindful of not parking it on an uneven surface as once there was a dip where the side stand was aimed and I nearly went over. Now I've had the Forza 300 for 6 weeks, it is so nimble and agile, and light, in comparison, I can't believe I put up with the weight of the Integra for so long... (although I do miss the power :D). I would imagine with the facelift the Integra would weight slightly less, but to compete with the other larger scooters they'd need more under seat storage space too. I can see how it would appeal to some people, but I'm perfectly happy with the 300.

750 cc, DCT, 55 Hp
that's exactly my cup of tea
hope it still will be a city scooter in Forza style, with the exceptional luggage space under seat (at least similar)
if so, i will definitely buy it asap

It won't be.
Think facelifted NC750D Integra.
There simply isn't room for decent storage under the seat.

Big surprise is the claimed full-face sized underseat storage, didn't think they would manage that.
