FB marketplace is a bloody nightmare. Had one scammer and plenty of time wasters and last minute cancellations.

I'm 29 inside leg too and I don't have too much of a problem. OK I have to slip forward slightly, but I do it without thinking. Ideally it could be a little less tall in the seat but it's not too bad. I am otherwise so happy with my Forza I can put up with it.

Did you sit on one before ordering? When I buy a bike, unless it looks obviously low enough I 'try it for size.' With legs as short as mine (and yours) it is always better to be safe than sorry.

Unfortunately the bike was parked in the Showroom on sidestand, when i asked to put it on centre stand they pointed to thier floor and did not want it marked. If i had gone for a test ride i would never had bought it. I have a Cruisym 300i that i have had for five years, the riding position suits me far better, feet further forward and seat further back. I only went for the Forza after seeing videos on you tube, and wanting to get rid of my Silverwing600. I cannot fault the engine, good response, quick pick up, but, sliding forward each time i stop, i feel to be sat on top of it rather than blending into it. I have just serviced my Cruisym at 65000 km, and do not really need another bike.

Maybe be helpful to them and mention that other dealers use carpet tiles to avoid that issue?

Hi Sylar, as apposed to FB marketplace, there are Forza owners groups, and UK scooter groups,(maxi), if you dont do FB get someone you know who does to join them and put details up on there, takes 5 mins and less loonies on dedicated groups.

Thanks for that info Horobags. The Forza is just sitting in my Garage under cover, and i take it out for a run once a fortnight to keep battery topped up.

If it was on the centre stand in the showroom it would have been easier to just level it and sit on it, getting a more realistic idea of how it would suit you. And not marking their precious floor.
