Ah, well; I think if you read my report on the Test Ride you will get a fair idea of what I feel about the bike.
My own Forza felt almost exactly the same but newer, if that makes sense,
The only downside today was having to ride fairly gently because of new tyres and quite slippery roads.

You must at least sit on one, though; there is enough leg-room for me but someone more than 6' tall may feel a bit restricted.
I have it in mind that in due time I might get my bit of the seat extended backwards as I never now carry a passenger.

I will eport as time goes by, of course.

Glad you got your long awaited Forza Mike. Enjoy.

First thing to do is take a fine-tooth saw to that daft 'document holder' under the seat - increase your luggage capacity by, oh, loads! (I soon got fed up with items of shopping being punctured...)

Ah, I thought that might be the location for the tool kit which was lying with its rubber band on the bottom of the tub.

Thank you. I am already!

The toolkit should go in the recess in the side of the tub. At least it does on the 300.

All this talk of getting a new bike is doing my head in Steve. Waldorf and you are making me jealous! I want one, but I don't want to part with my GTS. Then again I want a C125 Honda Cub too!! Basically, anything shiny my wife says...lol. Can I afford them all, yes but wife won't let me unless I get rid of the GTS. Not going to happen. Since I can only ride one at a time I guess she's right. I've done the multi bike thing many times over the years and I used to spend so much time deciding which one to take out that my rides ended up only being short.

Now everyones excited about the standard Forza 350, it appears an Adventure version is on the way! Story here, but basically no details...

I know exactly what you mean. Having more than 1 in the garage makes you feel guilty if one is left for a while, then you think 'I only really need one '!! I'm also drooling over a c-125,,its only a matter of time.

Mike…..i am pleased its arrived and i am sure it will prove a fine stead for you,is the sat nav mount all sorted?photos will be needed,hopefully the weather will allow you a few rides,look forward to further reports…..
