Is it just me, but when I look at the profile picture, the front wheel is HUGE - much bigger than the rear? The proportions look very odd - bulky front and tiny rear!

Definately looks like an Integra replacement,

Presumably so they can have a whole family of Forzas,

It does look good to me, but I need to see storage and drive details to make a proper assessment.

I fear it has chain drive as it is using the multi platform engine...

Maybe they fixed the storage over the Integra...

Had a quick look to see if there was already a thread about,couldn’t see one

Due to be released 14 October......DCT,tft screen,led lights ect ect......couple of short vids via google or YouTube £9k-£10k at a guess,if Honda are due to release it 14 October i am unsure if they mean a few demo models or if its actually on the production line

Yes...see the 'New Bigger Forza Hinted' thread. Honda will unveil it on Oct 14th, but when it will go on sale is anyone's guess!

Abysmal storage capacity these huge scoots.
Gp800/tmax/Integra. Yea I understand... There's a lot to fit down there. They're not tourer... Yea but still... Putting a big ass box in the back just kills the whole look. Burgman 650 does it pretty well.

Or if it will make it here at all.

Our market size and unknown tariff levels next year might mean it's not worth messing about to bring it in.

Well the big reveal tomorrow, are we going to get a proper tourer with a decent screen, a huge boot/trunk and enclosed final drive? ;)

Errm No! It looks some sort of adventure styled maxi, probably with boot like current Integra/X-ADV (1 helmet) and chain drive! Apart from that, just what you are hoping for!

I hope like maxsymiser, but I fear Mr Grumpy will be correct...

Surely the whole idea of a big scoot, is low maintenance, big storage, creature comforts and good motorway performance?

I wonder how difficult it would be for Honda to take the chain drive and modify it for belt drive?

A lot of powerful bikes have belt drives (Ducati/Harley) so why not this?!

If the boot is tiny they have ballsed it again imo.

The Tmax storage is small, but still has room for your helmet/gloves and jacket which i would say is the minimum needed for a scoot.
