Sad part is Honda don't care,sells in Europe we are such a small market despite support of folk such as us.

The article said £4700 for 125 and £5100 for 300.

300cc seems like good value but 125cc is a bit steep.

Are Forzas comfy as a scooter?

Tempted to try it. Thinking of trading in CB500X and XMAX 125 and get one scooter as I prefer them to bikes.

I love the electric screen on the new Forza, I often want to switch between nice cool air and protection depending on speed/temp etc.

I'm intrigued by the high top speeds they saw....I used to be that normally a 15bhp 125 would see a genuine 70, whilst you'd need 33bhp to see a real 90. Yet here, the 125 reaches 76, and the 300 with only 24.5bhp reaches 90 - apparently genuine speeds measured by GPS. How come????

I don't think Honda can beat the comfort and style? of the Helix.....but of course it doesn't meet those euro4 regs, shame but I wouldn't change again. My Helix and my almost-as-new Foresight will see my riding days out!
