Also-ran my arse :lol:
After the mid August launch in the UK, Honda sold more Forzas in six weeks of Q3 than Kymco have sold Downtowns in four years.

https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/honda_nss_300_a-d

All manufacturers have glitches along the way, I remember early Downtowns had dodgy rear brakes for example.

My DT eats Forzas for lunch..... ;)
Hmm based on those numbers if I was in the UK my DT would be fat. :o

OK, most folks have a box camera of some kind -
So, here we will post our fav views of said scoots.
I'll start us off since you guys are camera shy (or really can't stand the look of your scooter?)






And the view seen by most other scooters.....

Is this where the WG's will say they're too busy ridin' to take a snap of their plastic?
never heard that one before....

I had to pawn my camera. The Shylok I got my scooter money from found out where I live.
I can draw you a nice pict. with a crayon tho. My Gf's kid left some here...

I made it yellow, and put a red headlight. It's nice!

Poor Stig gotta post his pics here no home of his own. ;)
I don't waist my time snapping pics of things I already have just things I want. ;D

So I'll never take a pic of the Forza.

I just find that it is way too difficult to post pictures ( sizing issues ) here. I will not use Tapatalk,or other photo uploading sites.

Ocassionally , I am lucky enough that I can enter a URL from F.B., but- that is only a luck of the draw.

I don't use my phone as a camera...it is a PHONE .

I do not carry my Nikon D3200 with me (regularly) ... TOOO expensive and to bulky to carry in the Otter Case .

I do not carry my Samsung (point and shoot) regularly ,either, as the Pelican Case is more than I want to carry around and this forum continues to tell me I must "shrink" the pictures to upload .More work than I want to do to "show off"  my ride .

Should it be made easier to upload, directly, and avoid all the B.S. it involves - I might consider posting more pictures .


I think once I have posted a picture of my bike , that unless I accessorize it or (God Forbid ) damage it - it does not look any different.

I have posted pictures of rides I have taken on it (with a picture or two/three of the bike ) ,but- it appears that certain members want to see the bike in every shot . Like I said the bike does not wear makeup, nor does it wear clothing/jewelery , etc. that might change how it looks.

So-- my three cents worth...make of it what you may .


Enjoy your rides (safely) !    :)

I was checking MSRP on a few 300cc models and the Forza is right there amongst them, not extremely higher. I was surprised, of course on the Kymco you can get a deal on a 2 or 3 year old new stock. Honda maybe not.

Yep the Forza is priced right, lot of tech for the buck and a nice scoot all around.

That said I went 2013 leftover DT last June for 3200.00OTD. It was a whim purchase at that point as I really had my eye on the BMW. As it turns out I didn't need the extra power.

You folks have me laughing so hard I can't hold the camera still!


Some quiet time is what you need....

All the stuff going on in the world....and folks get exercised over pix of the wrong scooter.
BTW- thanks for posting them 2nd time!
