The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

I have hardly looked at this Forza forum but have recently been considering purchasing a Forza back in the US so that I have something for leisure riding while I am on my trips back there. I am also considering a SilverWing.

I know the difference between ABS and non-ABS, but can someone give me a brief description of the differences between the Forza, Forza NSS300 and the Forza NSS300A? I see all three models listed on various sites.

Forza is a series name, there have been 250 Forzas, the 300 Forza and the most recent addition, the 125 Forza.
The 125,250 and 300 are all entirely different, all they share is the Forza series name.

In the USA there has only ever been one version marketed under the Forza name, the NSS300.
The NSS300 fitted with ABS is the NSS300A (A=ABS)

There are variations of features between different markets, but there is only one Forza 300 available in the USA, with or without ABS.
There have been no changes in any model year.

Thanks GNS, I appreciate the response. I was unsure of the the US designations. As I continue to look at them online, I will be assuming any US models listed simply as a Forza without the NSS300 or NSS300A designations will be the NSS300 without ABS unless clarified elsewhere in the description.

If its for sale in the USA it can only be an NSS300 or NSS300A
The only difference between the two is ABS as indicated by the A

NSS300 = Forza 300 no ABS

NSS300A = Forza 300 fitted with ABS

If an advert does not explicitly state ABS, chances are it won't have it.
I believe the ABS is a fairly expensive option but worth every penny imo.

Wonder what is different with the 'G' model - NSS300G

Nothing.
G means 2016
A NSS300G is a non ABS 2016 NSS 300 Forza.
A 2016 ABS Forza would be a NSS300AG

Money well spent.

Which I likely will if I end up getting a Forza.

£4,700 otr for combined ABS Forza 300 here - seems to be about £4,500 in the USA with ABS, but do you then add other taxes and stuff?

I couldn't find a Forza in my area and I ended up purchasing a 2009 Yamaha Majesty 400. I will post pics in the 'Other Bikes' sub-forum.
