It was like an art house film. I like how it kept showing the wind turbine, and am still trying to figure out what the director meant with this symbolism.

[@ThePepper5150]

I like the video shows a sample of how the forza runs.

[@tedwitus]

about two years and you'll be wanting more - that's me at least .. trying to figure out what's next. any suggestions?

[@barry4913]

It's a White Honda scooter. Oops. Forgot to film anything else

[@kwakkers68]

Each to their own and all that, but if I wanted to see this sort of stuff, I'd read Scooter-monthly.

[@vinnychoff]

I was expecting some information or talking about the bike but none

[@nunogirao]

Not a single frame from the back of the bike :(

[@jimmymac9388]

What was that all about.

[@christianluff]

The bit where the camera car went through some gravel and kicked up some dust added some drama. Hopeless. I'm giving you a thumbs down for this.

[@jesuisravi]

I think a few words from the sponsor of this video would have been appropriate at some point or other.

Great bike, bought mine in Thailand where I live, also have Honda PCX 125cc great bike for city commutes, the Forza is great for Highway driving, did a 5 day 1200 KM tour to Kanchanaburi (North West province) great performance with two people. I did order sidebags and CoolCase Givi. In Canada I have a Honda Silverwing..this is a great bike for city and Highway driving...Honda great product...

+Ron Rotor Yes, they are exceptional scooters, however... A CVT scooter will NEVER be as efficient as a motorcycle of the same cc's with efficient gearing. The gearing can be changed on a motorcycle in about 1 hour MAX service time or 1.5 hours owner time. +2 front secondary gearing and -2 rear secondary gearing will yield you a massive increase in mpg. Cheap as well, just 2 toothed gears and a socket driver is all you need. Want to try that on a scooter? You have to take the internal transmission apart and change out the primary gears, if you can find them, for a few hundred dollars and 5 hours of service time at $75 an hour. Then if you don't like it? Pay to have it put back and lose the expensive parts. CVT's are tough...

[@angelocardoc]

Is this video supposed to make me want to go and read Ride magazine, for more info.
I don't think you really have a grasp of what TH-cam is.

[@Johnwillbegone]

What they said..

[@karllued]

Yawn fest? I liked the part where they kept showing the windmill!

[@benquicks]

Go see a doctor about your problem.

[@umaxen0048]

+Karl Luedemann Yea, but those blade windmills are really ineffective. You can produce 10x more power with a sail-track type generator. A BIG sail opens up on a track and pulls a lightweight sled attached to a generator.

[@umaxen0048]

279cc, not 300...

[@en4775]

they tend to round to the nearest multiple of 50.

[@umaxen0048]

+en4775 Yea, but as far as small bikes go, a loss of 21cc's isn't like calling a 970cc a "1000"

[@toriasummers2670]

Have to agree with other posters - pointless video, doesn't tell you anything, just boring viewing watching the Forza driving along! What's the point to this video? Are we missing something here, if so, what, do tell!

[@JimmySlacksack]

shite.

[@IvanMectin]

And to think I used to buy this shit mag. WHF are you thinking !

[@sthor57]

Nothing to see...

[@trevornixon1006]

Total yawn fest

[@plaid13]

No info not even an onboard view? what a pointless video. Its not hard to mount a helmet cam these days.
