I have the 300, great scooter. The rear shocks were way too hard on factory setting, backed the preload off two notches and they were fine. Nice review, cheers.

The suspension is awful on both scooters 300 & 350. The wind shield is also problematic. My height is 1,88cm so it doesn’t cover me fully and I also have in front of my eyes the end of the shield, which is really frustrating. I replaced it with a GIVI one which is 10cm longer than Honda’s. I would also like to replace the suspension but I don’t want to spend right now 550€. So I will decide in the near future about that. Apart from that I know that it’s a great scooter with a good build in quality and with big spaces. PS with 300cc I went 140km many times so I think this one will definitely go more 😁🇬🇷

@@lefterisandreadis600 Γειά σου Λευτέρη. Την givi την έχω από το 300cc και απλά την προσάρμοσα στο 350cc. Την είχα πάρει περίπου 70€ - 80€ περίπου. Με καλύπτει πλήρως αλλά δυστυχώς επειδή είναι αρκετά μεγαλύτερη, ταλαντεύεται αρκετά όταν είναι ρυθμισμένη στην υψηλότερη θέση. Ρυθμίζεται ηλεκτρικά χωρίς να έχεις κάποιο πρόβλημα όπως και η γνήσια της Honda. Στην χαμηλότερη ρύθμιση είμαι μια χαρά με απειροελάχιστους κραδασμούς. Το άλλο θεματάκι που έχει το μηχανάκι είναι η πίσω αναρτήσεις. Οι οποίες ακόμα και στην μαλακή ρύθμιση είναι αρκετά σκληρές και κάνουν το scooter ασταθές και να χοροπηδάει. Με ένα δεύτερο άτομο στα 60 κιλά περίπου οι αναρτήσεις σταματούν να παρουσιάζουν το παραπάνω πρόβλημα. Εγώ είμαι περίπου 85 κιλά. Τέλος θα ήθελα να σου πω ότι τα πόδια σου θα είναι κάπως μαζεμένα. Δεν υπάρχει χώρος για να τα απλώσεις αρκετά όπως για παράδειγμα σε ένα SYM GTS 300 που νομίζεις ότι κάθεσαι σε πολυθρόνα. Βέβαια το SYM δεν έχει καμία απολύτως σχέση με το Honda σε όλα τα υπόλοιπα. Είναι αρκετά ανώτερο το Honda. Όσο αφορά τα ταξίδια. Με το 300cc έχω πάει σε αρκετά νησιά και μέχρι Άγ. Κωνσταντίνο. Χωρίς κανένα πρόβλημα. Δεν είναι μηχανή ούτε TMAX αλλά πάει μια χαρά για αυτό που είναι. 😀

The rear shock upgrade will make a massive difference but always go for shocks that have both compression damping and rebound damping as well as preload. Scooters that have the engine as part of the rear swingarm have a lot of weight in the wrong place and tend to be crashy over bumps compared to say a Tmax with plush monoshock..rebound and compression damping shocks from YSS are a fantastic upgrade .As for top speed, a 30hp 350 is never likely to hit 160kph..the xciting 400i is better having 5bhp more, but if u want to go faster, go bigger! 130kph on the Forza 350 is excellent but the better Shocks will transform the riding.Dunlop scootsmart tyres are also incredible upgrade. For a 350 is best looking scooter without a doubt. Ride safe and enjoy

Tip for keyless bikes , 1. Buy a spare battery for the key fob and tape it somewhere on the bike. When the battery runs out, the bike wont start. 2. If going long distance, take a spare key fob too, in case you lose or damage your main one 3. If u dont have a spare key fob order one. It took me nearly a week to get my spare deliverered. That would be one week without a bike.

I think but I might be wrong, they are produced in thailand and exported abroad. The bikes sold in the domestic market tend to be of lower grade so that they are more affordable for the locals. But for the export market they have more standards to pass in order to comply with your local regulations. You think this can be correct.

Hi there, love your reviews on the 350, I live in London and I had my Honda Forza 300 2019 stolen recently which sucks.. I really loved it and babied it so much.. !! I am considering the 350 which still didn't land to Uk, we're still looking on 1 - 2 month waiting list .. and thanks to your video I will address a few details straight away: 1- the seat upholstery really seem to suck compared to the old model.. the 300 was so solid, I had no problems for 2.5 years.. I will see if there is some solid replacement 2- the grab bars used to be aluminium and felt really solid, the 350 looks plastic, do you think they are still OK? 3- the exhaust looks much bigger, kinda bothers me a little 4- I think actually the extended front visor will be a benefit on the long run, I am 1.85cm tall and the low visor on the 300 really put a lot of wind on my shoulders, hopefully this will solve the problem 5- I didn't like the light power on the 300, did you try at night? are you happy with the light power? 6- rear shock absorber apparently you can set them to different level, did you try a different setting before replacing them? thank you again , keep up the content!

The aluminum bars are not plastic they are for sure solid. The bike still kicks ass but maybe because it was a domestic bike the regulations are more laid back so the might improve on their export models. This I will have to wait and hear from you lol.

Looks like a slight backwards step compared to the 300 forza... the 300cc seat was much better quality as for speed top box and how you sit won't matter as for nearly 99mph !! Ummmm a bit suspect my 300 forza only does 85 though the speedo reads 90mph....love the new shocks maybe once fitted you can ride the same roads and tell us what you think. I LIKE my 300 forza just a wasted opportunity for honda to do a better job like more Hp and slightly deeper storage... did yours not come with honda bluetooth connection for sat nav ?

I have the original style Forza 300. It's dated but, otherwise its like an old loafer, very comfortable to ride IN, instead of ON. new Forza's have more like a motorcycle ride of sitting ON the seat, old style is like, IN the seat.

Forza has the best rear suspension on his category .on scooters 300-350cc if you want better suspensions to see definitely difference you must ride a bike or scooter with mono shock like forza 750 xadv integra tmax. I think if you take that shocks eith preload it will be better

hi and thank you for your message. i still do thing the shock is not the best for Honda. i think Honda could have upgraded the shock in many ways being that they are Honda but i am sure they left it basic so the customer can upgrade as they wish. each person likes a different type of ride. i just went on a 600km ride in the mountains and the shock is not that great. i would most likely be upgrading the shock both front and rear once i am able to save up some money. but thank you so so much for your info, this is always good to know for second thought. thank you @redcowboymedia

Both are good. Forza is smooth and relaxing and good for long distance. X max is better for driving fast from red light to red light. It is faster of the line alittle but over all the comfort of forza feels better. They are both great bikes but the options on the forza seem to be better

Hi bro .... how are you? Has performance increased? If you have not respected the first 1000 km while driving slowly ... It is normal that your engine is damaged ... You also have to check a major problem in Thailand ... The stores often put too much oil engine .... Forza 350 is 1.5 liters with the replacement of the oil filter .... 170 milliliter of gearbox oil ..... It is very important to respect this .... In Thailand they are sometimes stupid with mechanics .... give me your news .... my line is tawan197410 it's better for speak with you

HONDA being such a huge Brand charging 1.5K extra than KYMCO in UK and with so many sales and not able to get them right is a shame.

The rear shocks, windscreen and seat cover are the things you can notice on the test ride before you buy it. If they are that obvious on the test ride just don’t buy it. Buy a Tmax instead the only quality scooter on the market. Honda is became a low budget brand that’s why it’s made in Thailand. Quality is nowhere near what it used to be long long time ago. I would never buy one, they are just cheap disposable garbage.
