Are any of you 2018 Forza 300 owners concerned with the muck thrown up by the rear wheel? In other words is there a decent rear hugger fitted from factory? I was looking at the 300 last week - two visits to the dealer actually - and forgot to look at the rear wheel.
I'm thinking that this could replace my great little Nmax 125 over the next year.

Edit: I have checked out bikerdezzie and bern's accessories and hugger posts in Search........so no hugger - perhaps aftermarket if a concern.

Not something i have heard of and never seen any posts regarding muck chucked up at all, i dont think it will be a problem to be honest.

Re: dirty Forza to clean new Forza
If you like the Nmax have you looked at the Xmax 300? It's got a more powerful and more fuel efficient engine than the new Forza which didn't get an updated engine for it's new body.Capt. R Swipe wrote: ↑Mon Apr 22, 2019 7:04 am

Re: dirty Forza to clean new Forza
Yes 1290 thanks, I did; I walked into the dealer with the Xmax 300 and Nmax 125 as choices in Aug '17. I walked out with the Nmax because I preferred the better feet-forward room and because the bike was replacing my Vision 110 for commuting.orange1290 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 22, 2019 9:47 amIf you like the Nmax have you looked at the Xmax 300?

I'm now considering a Forza 300 as a toy and for distance riding and pleasure use, the Nmax will be kept for duties. I do like the Forza's looks which is why I'd like to keep it looking good! I tend not to bother with my duty-scoots - I'll grease and spray ACF 50 etc. and then wash now and then, as it's a futile job with all the muck.
The rear end of the Nmax never remains dry or free from thrown-up muck from Autumn to Spring.
I'll have to accept the more cramped styling of the 300s I think...............

Re: dirty Forza to clean new Forza
today on my way home I clocked the first 1000 milestone.
scooter is perfect in every way. I get over 200 miles to a tank and its so smooth to ride...
of course I have not washed it once...but it's a commuting tool...

Re: dirty Forza to clean new Forza
evening all. yesterday I rode my forza for the first time at night since getting it in March. I had to get back from the Rammstein gig in Milton Keynes and than had a 1.5h ride back through country lanes and I must say I am very much impressed by the LED head lights at dipped and even main beam. it has a really good spread and lights enough in the distance to ride with confidence. Much better than they previous version forza.

Should have 'borrowed' one of their flame throwers - that'd illuminate the roads even better!
