Hi There
I am new to any kind or forum so please excuse any mistakes and feel free to correct me and provide feedback.

I have been riding bikes and scoots since i was 17 and am now well into middle age.

This forum was mentioned in TWIST AND GO magazine so I thought it would be a good idea to join and share some of my experiences and learn stuff from people who actually own and ride similar machines (rather than reading the waffle published by the popular motorcycle press).

I recently bought an ex-demo Honda Forza 300 . I found it quite cramped, with limited leg room, but the deal was good and I liked the looks,, weight engine and brakes. So I bought it and planned to spend some of the money I saved on fettling it to suit my needs.

I would welcome hints tips and suggestions from people who own a forza or similar

Thanks for looking

Spode

Welcome Spode, we've a few Forza riders so no doubt they'll chip in soon.

Always good to get new blood and more riders involved, so feel free to post any questions, thoughts or ravings (plenty here already). Might be worth adding your general location to your profile, so anyone nearby can see and maybe ask if you can come out to play!

Hi and welcome.
You can trim padding out the seatback to give some more legroom or remove it completely, its held on by six bolts.
Alternatively an upholsterer could completely reprofile and re-cover the seat for you.

Welcome to the forum, I'm a Forza rider myself.

Not had to make any modifications to the seat as its fine for me.

You will find some good advice on here, also look at the PCX Forza Forum. I think if you search PCX forum in google it brings it up.

Hope you enjoy the bike as much as I do icon_thumbs_up.gif
As they say is Star Wars.....May the Forza be with you
