Honda Forza Seat Mod
Has any Forza owners modified the seat to give more leg room? I,m very cramped with all my winter riding gear on with armor in the over trousers at the knees . Anybody any thoughts as i,m thinking of removing the seat back stop to give more leg room.

No door is closed to an open mind.
Except a closed door, which a mind can't open, but even a stupid hand can.

If you want to be incrementally better: Be competitive. If you want to be exponentially better: Be cooperative.

I removed the seat hump on my Forza and it turned into a different bike. As for covering the holes, I bladdered bolts through from underneath and covered the thread tops with caps pressed down onto them. It looks like 6 chrome studs set into the seat. looks pretty good I think, certainly better than a load of holes. If I knew how I would send photo in. Hope this helps.

Good idea.True it makes a much better comfortable ride. Just got some stickers over the holes at the moment.

6 studs? Only appear to be 4 holding the 'hump' on mine. Am I missing something?scootersthefuture wrote:I removed the seat hump on my Forza and it turned into a different bike.
