Back on topic, going to book in a test ride for the Forza too as the price is half that of the BMW and servicing will be a lot cheaper.
Yes, but its like comparing a Hyundai i10 and a BMW 5 series. Both are excellent in their ways and both will get you from A to B, but they will do it in very different ways.

Well I was thinking 2nd hand BMW one anyway and get it serived in back street bobs etc.

Or do it yourself.

How tall and you by the way.

Be great if you can get a go on one. I`d be surprised if they don`t have one there.

This event sounds like a good idea as well.

Best Mark.

The ride quality on a Forza 125 is 'stiff' if you're 71kg; the handling is very good and is what sold the bike to me on a test ride; the comfort is fine for me.
I had the same reservations about bikes with the engine going up and down; but the Forza doesn't suffer at all.
All I can say, really!

I’m still going to pop along. I’m in Castleford at the moment getting my bike serviced so will call into Squires to see what it’s all about. If they don’t have a scooter there I won’t be staying long.

Yeah, no demo model yet but one is coming soon.

Had a look at one being prepped for a customer. Looks great.
