It's down to the perception of powered two-wheelers. Dangerous, cold and wet, you have to put on loads of gear and they have no luggage space. Always the downsides. And always from people who have never had one.
On my second Forza 125 brilliant bike and shows a good presentation on the road. With the ABS it also gives a good sense of stability. It actually reaches 50mph very quickly. This bike has reached speeds of almost just under 80mph which is very impressive for a 125. Bike. very capable of carriageway and motorway speeds. Honda claims it's good for touring. I would personally recommend this bike
Not just me who accidentally hits the horn button when cancelling indicators then 😂 I think it's to do with the crappy weather we get in this country too, but if you're right, then best get in early and buy a decent motorbike or scooter as you'll no doubt see prices increase as demand increases and starts to negate the money saving effect. Plus.... Scooters look way cooler in European cities 😎🌞
I have one myself my only gripe is the kick stand don't lean out as far as I'd like been close to toppling a couple of time, However I use the centre stand more But I've had mine over a year and finding it gets up in the 60s rather easy and times it's sat in the 70s , it's faster and I feel far more in control than my mt125
I'm torn between this and the PCX. One of the big differences is cost lol but with the Forza having ABS it may be the better option for duel carriage way use on a 80 commute
The ADV looks great but a bought a new Forza 350 as I will not using it off road, same engine though and the Forza gives better wind and rain protection@@andrewstorm8240
Ikzelf heb het model gehad en nu heb ik het model 2023 (facelift model) en ik moet zeggen dat het even aangenaam rijden is alleen komt de werkelijke kilometer niet overeen dan met de gps-snelheid als je met het nieuwe model 120km/u rijdt rijdt je werkelijk maar 110km/u dat is het enige minpunt verder zijn ze zogoed als hetzelfde
The congestion charges nothing but a scheme to go more money if any thing they need to make road work better get rid traffic light in round about and let drive and rides choose when to go . Other I like see is change motorcycle class make 259cc and 33 bhp learner legal as need more power and to make dual carriageway and motor way speed high to help get traffics move more freely
I forgot my little Honda Vision 110 2023 has the engine cut off fuel saver today. Was coming out of the shopping centre and it conked out. Started it again 3 times until I noticed I'd hit the button by accident. Doh.
@KrisVic91 on the bike I had it was a little switch under the tank that would have put it on the reserve tank which means it would have started and I wouldn’t have needed to push it for 3 miles 😳
Quick question. When the engine cuts out, using the mobile phone. Does it count as using mobile phone when vehicle turned on? Can you get a ticket for it?
That’s a good question. Technically the engine is not running. But you’re not parked either. You would be in the middle of the road. That’s one for the courts to decide.
@@GillyBikesI'm watching you from Runcorn, looking at selling my sports car an getting a comfortable scooter that runs on fresh air to get me too work 😂
@iLouieTube there are so many good ones out there. If you’re local you should check out all the different scooters at In2moto they had loads in there last time I was in. Depending on budget you could get a used Forza or a new Sym, Voge, MBP, MGB. There are good arguments for new / used options. Warranties being a big one. Ultimately if it was me I would go and sit on all of the bikes you’re considering and see which one you find the most comfortable.
Bought the 2023 Forza 125 back in August and i love it! 15hp and will do 80mph i don't need anymore. Highly recommend one.
That’s a really good tip speed for a 125. That would beat most geared 125’s 👍
It does amaze me that the UK doesn't have more sctooter on the road..especially when they is only one person in most cars.
Yes it’s shocking. I think numbers will go up soon because it’s the cheapest way to travel.
Its the weather😂
Not that great having water dripping down Ur butt crack, while risking your life between coked up drivers.

That’s a good top speed. Definitely comfortable enough for touring 👍
Mine 2020 also 80mph easy
I have one and I love, I'm a big lad and it's very comfortable and you can close to 80mph on it, I absolutely love it.
Great to hear. They are really nice bikes to ride. Ride safe 😎

You just don’t see many in the uk. Compared to other countries in Europe. The uk will catch up though. These are a cheap way to travel.
What a pleasant man with the best review for the bike ive seen yet. Got mine yesterday 2022 one, just waiting for servicing and on the road :)
That’s very nice of you ☺️. Enjoy your new bike. Ride safe 😁

Just Bought the 2024 model cant wait upgrading form the honda pcx
Ok Thanks i was just wounding like in the case of the Forza 125 and the Forza 350 . Now the Forza 750 Thats a big bike Thank you like your show 👍👍
You’re welcome and thank you.

I’ve been out on a Zontes 310 this week and they are shockingly good. Apparently they have a top speed on 110mph as well 😳
Go for the forza mate there awesome bikes
I love the colours. Blue is my favourite
My favourite colour to
Great bike, I am considering the 350 version as a second Bike
I would definitely love a extra 350 scooter in my garage.
ADV?
The ADV looks great but a bought a new Forza 350 as I will not using it off road, same engine though and the Forza gives better wind and rain protection@@andrewstorm8240
I have the 350 version and I highly recommend it.
Easy bike to ride. I need a big Garage to I can buy them all!

Have a 2015 in white n blue it’s a cracking scoot engine pulls amazing for a 125
They are great scooters. How many miles does yours have? Any issues? It’s good to find out from an owner. Cheers. G.
14000 miles no issues at all
@stevenspx6226 that’s really good to hear. Thanks. Hopefully many more fun miles to come. Ride safe. G.
Just traded my 2015 for 2024 special edition many improvements since 1st generation especially the suspension 😎
@stevenspx6226 I bet that feels like a completely different bike. 9 years worth of improvements 👍
Good bike, I have one in France and take it everywhere.
They are great. Brilliant for around town.

I would agree with that. I do think learners should be allowed 300cc. It’s safer because they can keep up with the cars.
Possessore da 5 anni fantastico...❤
Nice bike for India need little more ground clearance also kick start is not there for secondary option. need Kick start without center stand
I do like the backup of a kickstand as well.
I forgot my little Honda Vision 110 2023 has the engine cut off fuel saver today.
Was coming out of the shopping centre and it conked out.
Started it again 3 times until I noticed I'd hit the button by accident.
Doh.
In my youth I pushed a bike 3 miles because it ran out of fuel. After I did that someone made me aware of the reserve 🫣
@@GillyBikes what's the reserve?

Scooters arnt my bag but still enjoyed the video.
Thanks as always.
Iv bin looking at the Forza and the aprilia sr gt am not sure witch to get help people
You can’t go wrong with a Honda. 👍
Hi i like the bike when you say a smaller engien this is a125 what you say about the Forza 350 would say that is small or is it a large engin ?
For a scooter a 350 is large. In the uk scooters mostly are 50’s and 125’s.
Honda or the new Voge ? Voge of course is way cheaper, I would really appreciate your honest opinion please, thank you in advance from Malta 🙏👍
Both good options. Personally I would go for the Voge. Just as good but loads cheaper.
@@GillyBikes . Thank you for replying. I totally agree with you.
This version does Not have the electronic Windshield? Can you move it manually?
No I think this one was fixed.
The later version have it
Nice video . Do you think that if I buy it I will be able to travel 300 kilometers? Greetings from Greece .
It’s comfortable enough for that so I don’t see why not.
Would you Recommend for Food Deliverys?
I would recommend every scooter for that. You would be doing it in comfort on this one though.
how tall are you fella?
5ft 8ins
I recognise these roads 😂
The mean streets of Warrington. 😂
@@GillyBikesI'm watching you from Runcorn, looking at selling my sports car an getting a comfortable scooter that runs on fresh air to get me too work 😂
😂😂 you would save a fortune.
@@GillyBikes I hope so, do you recon forza is the best?? Seen them for about 2.5k-3k
