I test rode the Forza 350 for approximately 30 miles today. My impressions - having got straight off my Burgman 400 - are these: 1. The Forza feels a little cramped and I was unable to stretch out my legs as far as I can on the Burgman. It's something I would get used to quite quickly though. 2. The engine is very smooth and responsive and makes the Burgman 400 seems quite rough by comparison. 3. I found the ride very hard and jarring. The rear shocks don't seem to be absorbing even minor bumps in the road. 4. Economy, as expected (due to a smaller engine and lighter weight) was better than the Burgman - I averaged 82mpg (imperial) over the 30 miles of mixed riding. 5. I love the clarity of the instruments. Better and more comprehensive than the Burgman. 6. The screen, even on its highest setting, produces a lot of wind noise around the helmet. I a only 175cm (5'9") but, for touring, I would need to fit a taller screen. (I have a Givi Airflow on my Burgman). 7. It's taller than the Burgman and I was unable to put both feet flat on the ground. Again, something I'd get used to. I think, for the price - unless you are adding Honda accessories - it is good value.

I had in my garage an xmax300 2019 model but i sold it after 2 years and 35.000km for the updated model forza 350. I bought the forza 350 on September 2021 without test driving it. Let me share with you my impressions after 2 weeks of driving it and how it is compared to the xmax300. • The seat material is not as good as the xmax300 and the whole construction closing and opening feels cheap. • It has only one storage space on the left side and it is very deep and not easy to reach your stuff. Again the construction feels very cheap compare to the xmax300 which has 2 storage spaces. • The biggest problem was some kind of vibrations that i was feeling at the seat, at the mirrors and at the steering when the scooter wasnt moving. I didnt faced anything like this with the xmax300 or any other scooter i have had. • Fuel consumption about the same as the xmax for sure not better. • Brakes better than the xmax300 • Rear Suspension is hard and not so soft as the xmax300. • Steering is about the same as the xmax 300 small differences. • The forza 350 engine feels quiter and stronger than the xmax300. • The instruments and the mirrors are more premium than the xmax300. Overall it didnt worth the upgrade and the whole experience of the forza350 left me unsatisfied. The biggest problem for me is the vibrations of the scooter because it makes it feel cheap. The xmax300 for me is the better option.

A great review, thanks. I think one of the reasons for buying this (for me, at least) is the 8000 mile service intervals. I currently own a 2020 Suzuki Burgman AN400 which needs servicing every 3500 miles, which is inconvenient and expensive because I cover high mileages. I also recently rode a Kymco AK550. Great performance and features but 3000 mile service intervals and £10k purchase price! Oh, and small underseat storage capacity, similar in size to the Forza 750's I recently sat on (but have not ridden) a Forza 350 and it felt a bit toy-like compared to the Burgman but will take a test ride soon. I think the price is very competitive. I quite like the Forza 750 but it is chain-driven which I will never go back to and the storage capacity is not big enough. Mind you, adding a Honda top-box and heated grips to the Forza is another £1000+ which is insanely expensive, in my opinion.

a i've had a serious problem, choosing between this or Xmax 300. Honda win because of several little advantages, which determine the overall comfort of use. It has a little better engine, more energetic and developmental. Better brakes, better wind protection with this adjustable windshield/more GT abilities if You plan to use it out of the city. Little better trunk with a nice pocket, also better finished. A lot better, deep front pocket. Working front lights (!), better mirrors. Some better ergonomics solutions - menu function buttons on left side, not on throttle side (!). Also You can switch off TC by dedicated one switch, not need to search this in menu. It's probably also little better balanced - battery is between the seat and the tank. Finally Forza have a better stock tires. I have to say Xmax also has some serious advantages. Better front forks, little lower fuel consumption and in my opinion some better finishing materials. And You can buy it used if not afraid of that.

I tested this 350 model whilst mine was getting serviced (forza 300) and my impression was it is much quicker at spinning up than the 300 which i find lacking until it gathers speed at the upper end.. I have traded mine in for this one after 12 months use... much quicker on overtakes esp in the mid range 50mph plus. I still have to think ahead but not so much so compared to the 300 the seat feels narrower and feel my knees futher down rather than towards my chest but it is marginal but more comfort is better even if it is small touches... my only gripe is the change of design on the rear pillion handles i will have to buy another top box rack.... more expense rather than a transfer.. Maybe a bigger engine more fuel use ?

I came home and for the past year and a half have been riding my Kawasaki Vulcan 1600, so I will need a bigger bike when I return.

Love your reviews, they have got better and better over time! love the 0/100kph I have a Yamaha xMax 300 and the Forza 350 is 2 seconds quicker than the Xmax 300 to 100kph! might be worth a look? but tbh i do fancy the Honda XADV its a lot of Money but maybe! Have you reviewed it yet?? If not can you?

Hello Michael! Glad you like them! Until now, I was not really able to make test rides on bigger bikes, but since I have just received my A license, I will do a review of the Honda Forza 750 and the X-ADV. That would be no problem :)

Hi i own c400 gt. I just test rode forza 350. I live in Uk . I got my c400gt for £5900, an ex demo with over 2 years of manufacturer’s warranty( more than a new Honda ). A new forza 350 is around £5500 and feels very basic comparing to c400 gt . Mine has alarm, TFT with turn by turn gps , heated seat heated grips. Lumbar support on c400gt is excellent, seat is more comfortable.Forza quality is good but c400gt fit and finish is on another level in my opinion. Both scoters handle very well, Honda engine is smoother, similar performance. Big difference is the front brake: c400 gt has a double disc . You may not notice it at lower speeds but if you hit the front brake at higher speed you notice a big difference. C400gt front break is much better, safer. Honda’s storage is very impressive. Because of little price difference( in my instance) i would choose c400gt every time . But if I was to pay over £8000 for well equipped new Bmw I would probably choose forza 350 . Forza 350 is an excellent scooter, well priced, the engine is so smooth comparing to Bmw . I really enjoyed test riding forza 350
