 The mega powersports store still has some leftover NOS Forzas. They are definitely sweet. Although they are asking far too much for leftover 3 year old machines. It's on my list for a maxi.

Yeah, Honda is still listing them at that full price. I'd be looking at cycletrader for nearest discounted ABS late model....or lightly used later model with ABS.
If you don't need to run 75mph for hours of commuting. ...is it a sweet scooter. Not sure that any nearly 300cc scooter can run hours at SoCal freeway speeds. But I'm no expert.
It has such a low center of gravity and is so smooth to operate that I was able to go from a LIKE200I  and ride the Forza through heavy traffic to home , with no drama whatsoever.
I only put about 6000 miles on it...before moving up to a 400 Burgman for two-up riding as my retirement approached.
(Seemed like a good plan, but I should have discussed this plan more thoroughly with Mrs. Stig...., "I think not, Dear.")

Perhaps the Forza is holding its value .....
Two yr left-over Burgman 400's were nationally reduced by at least $2,000 in dealerships. There were a bunch of them....even my local dealer had them at $2K off list, and these guys are famous for never, never discounting.
