49 year old bloke here, never a biker and no CBT and was only interested in watching vids of PCX or Super Cub with an idea for town commuting. Never thought about 'scooters' on B-roads. So thanks mate, you've brought on my mid-life crisis. Top review.

The Key. On the tip of the arch of the rear wheel remove the key cover insert the key twist then it will release the seat. This is to be used if you have a flat battery. The UK just only have Two colours Black and Blue. Europe have Four Colours Back, Blue, Red, and Cream. Blue is a wonderful choice. That's the one I have. On the left handle bar control button FN is for the Heated Grips. They say that the fuel comsuption will be at its best 78 mpg and with a 13.1 ltr tank. In two weeks all I've done is 10 miles. I'm not working at the moment. Must get out.

My current bike is a Tiger 1200 Alpine Edition but as a past owner of all types of bikes, sports, cruisers etc including a Bergman 650 and a 2015 T-Max 530 Iron, I am a big fan of big scoots so I watched with interest. Before you got to the “shortcomings” I had already searched the switch blocks for the cruise buttons but alas, none to be found. So agree totally, fit cruise control, an electric screen and provide an optional quality matching top case of around 45L capacity and Bob’s your uncle!

As soon as I hired ADV 750 in Madeira Portugal for five days I wanted to buy it. But I wanted style so went for the Forza 750. Traded in my BMW R1200RT. What I like about the manual mode is that you’ve changed down then want auto you’ve slowed down auto will change so it won’t labour the engine. Your also able to customise the screen. Lower part of the screen two items Mr Fish didn’t mention or show. Your able to display Engine Water Temperature also motorcycle charging state. Also ordered the central locking top box. I absolutely Love it. Updated August 2022 Just come from France Spain Gibraltar then traveling to Madrid then North to Santander then the Ferry to Portsmouth. Its a fantastic Weather was in the middle 35c. I would get another DCT gearbox never faulted.

If you want an NC750X buffed up with a TFT, large windscreen, comfortable seat, twin front disks, upside down forks and loads of room for your feet this is the bike for you. You lose .9L fuel capacity. I would love to try it out. I didn’t personally get on with the X-ADV and I preferred the riding position on the NC750X and that it was 2.5K cheaper than the X-ADV.

Great review and looks a great bike. As a former X-ADV owner I'm a big fan of this engine and DCT combination and I think this looks better and has slightly more practicality than the X-ADV. Disappointed about the lack of adjustability on the screen, the X-ADV has manually adjustable screen (albeit a rather clumsy awkward one) and more significantly, my son's 2020 Forza 125 has a slick electronically adjustable screen, so not sure what Honda were thinking here.

I hear that the Forza 125 is the same dimensions as the 300/350. The other options for learner legal scooters are physically small things. Larger people are ok on them for a brief time, but they'll get fed up of making themselves small. If spending any length of time on a bike/scooter... it should be a "me sized" bike. There are plenty of big 17year olds who will prefer the extra comfort from the Forza, and the electric screen is probably a happy accident for the 125 - a carry over from the 300.

Great review. For me it’s between this or the X-ADV. Your Gold Wing comment is much the same as a German review some while ago. No small coincidence and speaks volumes. My only issues are the screen and very small storage and whether the NC750 even with it’s lesser spec makes it better buy. Head says NC heart says X-ADV.

I bought one of these, but with all the luggage and heated grips. Mostly I agree with your review. I bought this after owning a DCT NC750X for two years. Couple of points. Once you adjust the mirrors that's it done. I'm only 5' 10" and can adjust no problem. I think the mirror mounting points on the brake reservoirs gives options for 3rd parties to make accessories to mount in these spaces. With the bike being throttle by wire, I cant understand why Honda did not give the bike cruise control. It would have been so easy to do.

The key is in case you lose the fob or it’s battery dies, you’ll find a key slot under the back of the bike above the wheel (probably covered with a rubber lid) it should open the seat and there’s a device in the tool kit that you plug into something near the battery then you input a code using the starter button, push once for no.1 and so on with a short gap between each number like morse code. Well it was for my X-ADV anyway

I’ve had two Honda “scooters” in the past and now riding a Burgman400. I thought I was happy. This Honda 750 looks pretty amazing. I only wish the makers of these maxi bikes would design them with a false “gas tank” storage compartment. That would give the rider something to squeeze the knees against if you live in an area prone to strong winds.. plus you get extra storage. If they had this and the high CC’s they would be more perfect bikes. Well done Honda on this one.. I just hope quality control is back. My past three Honda’s (including a Rebel 500) were all bought back as certified lemons. My Burgie always gets me home, love him.

What I fail to understand is if this is effectively an NC750x, which itself was originally based on a scooter design, and I thought the fuel tank was repositioned under seat allowing for the frunk to occupy the space the tank took but this bike seems to have fuel and lid storage under the seat but still seems to have plenty of space for a frunk.

I see no reason to pay more for this than for the 750X with DCT. Having said that, I really like the new Forza 350 and SH 350. Both the looks of them and the bigger engine.

Good review. I wish they had put the rear turn signals in the body work like they did the front. That looks sharp. I'm 6'4" and 19 stone. I really appreciate you talking about that. A few shots of you riding by on a roundabout would be easy to get, and very helpful. Thanks for a great review on what looks to be a pretty neat bike.

Great review Mr Fish! I've got a 1200GS, (no boxes don't like them) but bought a Forza 300 for nipping to Sainburies and running errands. Storage (top box and under-seat) is very useful. The 300 is quite nippy but annoyingly my biker genes are hankering for more. This 750 would have been great if it didn't have a chain, which is a pain to maintain in Scottish winters with no garage. Think a used TMax will be on the horizon when my bank balance looks better. That denim blue colour is gorgeous. Think Yamaha have that on Tracers? Cheers!

@@GJS-live I know what you mean! You can consider the Forza 350 (330cc) too. I have the Forza 300 (279cc) and it is quite good. I think the seat is a little higher than the Burgman which is probably the main difference. The Burgman looks too me a bit like a 400cc Cruiser type scooter, while the Forza is a bit more sporty and about 40 kilos lighter. I also think the Forza has a higher mpg return, while having roughly the same bhp. I haven't compared the torque figures which the Burgman really should win. But the Forza is cheaper and well worth a look. But if money was no problem, I'd get the T-Max too.

@@wolfpackpete6408 Thanks for the reply. Yeh, the Forza 350 makes the most sense. I've got a GS for longer trips, but for some reason, the TMax and this Forza 750 really appeal. Probably the extra comfort, wind protection, and oomph. Interesting the Burg is much heavier than F350. But anyway, I'm in Aberdeen, nearest Yam and Suzuki dealers are 120 miles away, Honda dealer 1 mile away, so it'll likely be a Forza! Cheers.

I've got a 300 Forza. I was going to test ride the new 350 but I might test this , if they have it. The stock pictures Honda have don't do it justice. It looks awesome and as others have said the 300 lacks a little power, although you can probably say that about any scooter except maybe this one? Lol I tried the Tmax couldn't get along with it, didn't feel agile like the Forza , love the colour but I've also seen the Matt black , it would be hard to choose, specially as my current Forza is Orange 555

I have a prosthetic left leg. How well does it balance sitting still? Does it feel heavy with a slight lean sitting still? I'm 71 and have been riding since 1964 and miss riding since my amputation. I did ride a Suzuki Bergman scooter for a couple of years but found out that it doesn't balance very well sitting at a stoplight, it just felt heavy. It was great riding but to its scooter nature it did not have much rear suspension travel, so you had to really try to dodge all pot holes.

Interesting vid. Having recently bought a Tmax 530 in order to see what all this scooter thing is all about. What you say about the Forza 750 is very similar to my impressions of my Tmax 530. It's called a scooter but imho, it is more like a small Yamaha FJR. In short, I love my Tmax. I would undoubtedly love the Forza 750. I'm sticking with Yamaha.
