- A look at my new Honda Forza 300 scooter, and checking out it's features. It is the perfect match for me, bigger than the PCX & smaller than the Silverwing. Still highway capable, great mpg, but less weight. Let me know what you think, like, dislike, comment.
Karen, I've had all scooters. I learned on the small Yamaha Vino 125 and went up in size every few years. I'm 51 and the Forza is a perfect fit of size and power.
Bought a 2016 and love it! Rides much like my former Silverwing, but with twice the MPG.
How does it handle on the freeway vs the Silverwing?
Dude, just got my Forza 300....and like you, I gave my wife the honda PCX 150. We enjoy tooling around together. Safe riding, thanks for review!
Thanx for posting this review! I'm seriously looking into getting a 2015 Forza, to replace my 2010 Elite which is no longer usable... not sure if you recall, but you were a big help in my decision to purchase the original scooter. :)
So far, I like everything I've been hearing about the Forza. Basically just waiting for my local dealer to get one in stock, so I can verify the fit before committing to the purchase.
Thanx again!
The Forza is a fantastic scoot. I do remember you, Adric & best of luck getting one.
Phillip, yes, they are a blast to ride!!!
I loved the Sh150i that I had for 3+ years. That Forza 300 is one snazzy scoot. Ride safe!
Great Scoot! I got mine in May this year and nearly 4,000 miles so far. Just to mention, you can get a Honda colour coded rear box, and Honda Carrier for it to sit on. I've a 34 ltr version all black (less than half price to the colour coded. Highway and town riding you'll get at least 82.5 miles to the imperial gallon. Happy riding!
Would you suggest this for a beginner?
Raymond,
The PCX150 would be fine with your weight, but a little cramped with your height. You would have to sit on one to see how the seating position feels?
Keep in mind that the PCX tops out at 65, so no freeway use, but it's a great bike that gets @100 mpg.
Trenton, that's just how it's made.
very informative! thanks for sharing! :)
Thanks, Larry & always do:)
Are you still running the Forza? I'm looking at a 2016 Forza with 400 kms on it. Have you found it to be problem free and inexpensive to maintain...also, what would you say that your fuel economy has averaged? I'm currently running a 2018 PCX150 and I love it, but would like something more highway capable and the Forza seems like a better "all rounder".
I wouldn't suggest this for a beginner. It weighs over 400 lbs & can go over 85 mph. I recommend beginners start on a 125 or 150. The PCX150 is the perfect choice, in my opinion.
Im already making payments on mine (2014 new) but have yet to ride it. It's waiting for me at the dealership where I will pick it up for it's virgin ride home (a 2 hour drive) as soon as it's warm enough to ride. I did tons of research and went to dealerships to sit on 4 other models of maxi scooter before checking out the Forza. Some were too big and heavy, some were too small, some were too old and overpriced. Even though it's a smaller engine, the Forza just felt right when I sat on it. To seal the deal Honda had a super sale on with $1200 off the original price. Kind of the three bears syndrome lol. I can't wait for spring.

Congratulations, you will love riding yours too:)
Compared to the Helix which do you think is better?
Thank you for the video. I am looking at this to replace my PCX. Now that you have had it a while, how does it handle on the highway? Is there any "quirks" I should know about?
I looked at the Forza 300 at the dealer when they came out. I have a few Hondas Currently, Silverwing 600, and a Burgman 650 and a NC700X. When I sat on the Forza it may be fine for people that are 5'5" tall or Shorter, when I sat on the forza my legs went out past the foot rests when I pulled my legs back on to the foot rests My knees were up high and was Not very comfortable, I didn't get past that. So I didn't even test ride it. I'm Only 6'-0" tall. But the Forza felt Cramped.
Gary West, I'm also 6 ft tall and curious to know which scooter you decided to buy.
I just bought one tonight, TN. How is yours still doing?
I'll look into a Forza 300 next year. Do you like it better than the Reflex 250? I'm a big guy and this bike would also be a good fit.
I have the Forza, am a big guy 6'2" 280. This thing is perfect fit. I upgraded from the PCX 150.
helmet goes is all plastic underneath..... should it be like that. Thanks again and sorry for the miss types
All scooters. Yamaha Vino125, Hondas Elite 110, Reflex, Silverwing, PCX & Forza.
You didn't show us the LED headlight
‘Intragated’ is not a word, it’s integrated. Good overview of the bike though!
It has both side & center stands.
Does this one has a hazard lights? i've eyeing on a suzuki burgman 200, bcoz it has a big storage , and i like the look of it. But once i saw the Forza, i felt in love with it too. Which one is better….the Burgman or the Forza ?
Yes it has hazard lights
Hello , great video btw ,,, have you figured out the cable that comes in the tool kit ? i just bought a 2016 and cant figure out where it goes
thanks in advance
Greg
are you talking about the helmet holder?
yes
Sadly, Honda doesn't put hazard lights on their scooters. The Burgman is nice too.
It does have hazard lights
I am going to buy the 2016 Honda Forza ABS, should have it here this week.
After it is started, do you put the Transmission in drive, is there a neutral selector.
No selector, just twist & go. Congrats on your Forza!
Do the under seat storage have that grey carpet like padding all throughout or is it just the top have? I ask because I just bought a 2014 Forza and mine just have it on the top half and it's very very easy to come up.... it accidentally came out with the velcro of my gloves. Thanks
Trenton, mine is the same & I've had the same thing happen.
What's the price con the scooter? thank
I'm 5'10. They aren't bad, but not the best.
yes. Anything above 50cc needs a full motorcycle license.
Greg, to be honest, I have no idea either?
Do I need a motorcycle license to drive this scooter?
how much it's price in dollar
What speeds does this go? Is it good for highways?
Yoko Kurama 85-90 mph. A little squirrly above 75, but very stable at 70 mph. It is nice for short highway runs but probably not a long distance interstate tourer. A Silverwing or Burgman 650 would be better for that.
$5,500 or $6,000 with anti lock brakes.
The bottom half of the storage where my he
Woooooooow
72.6 miles per gallon
Wait? I have a 2014 honda Forza
White colour. Yes I can better that
But I still don't believe it
That's why I still
240p.....240p!!!
