[@woodie62]

Really surprised you didn't know more about scooters as you did say your former boss owned one. Most importantly, you have more than a decent feel for this particular scoot. I found myself back in the market for another two-wheeled vehicle after having too many issues with the Lance Cabo 125 I cut my teeth on. I was actually researching motorcycles while simultaneously looking for another scooter and happened upon the Forza at a dealership in Marina Eel Rey, Ca. I really needed the Forza but wound up getting the CB500F, at the same place. Could not have been more satisfied. Hey, keep up the good work, Sean!!

[@mrvwbug4423]

Amazing how smooth that thing seemed, especially for a 300cc single (probably the same one used in the CB300F) and it was doing 70+ no problem.

The first Maxi Scooter may have been the Honda Helix. The seat was more comfortable than other scooters, IMO. And you can definitely go long distance touring on Maxi Scooters.

I'm able to keep my legs stretched out and lean back like I'm in a recliner on this bad boy. If you are looking for practicality, comfort, and convenience, this is the bike you're looking for.

I grabbed a low mileage (390kms) 2016 Forza 300 from an older lady this summer to replace my PCX150 and I absolutely love this ride. It's great around town and very comfortable out on the highway, and at 5' 8", I have plenty of room to "stretch out". I was still riding the scoot up until two days ago (Jan. 2nd) when we got our first bit of snow, and I'm still hoping to ride it here and there over the next few months as the fairings and windshield do a damn good job of deflecting the colder air (0' C) away from me.

You missed the most important Vespa of all, the carbureted GT200.

I now have over 60,000 miles on it, with no problems at all. A lot of those miles were at or near full throttle. Sadly it will likely be my last scooter, as they don't make carbureted ones anymore, and I will never own an EFI scooter or motorcycle.

What is your level of riding experience? Are you tall, not so tall? I've had 3 scooters. Two 400s and a 650, all Suzuki Burgmans. Either will take you across the country if you want to. The 650 of course has more power, but they are both way comfortable and interstate worthy. All the scooters I've ever ridden have been easy to ride, though imo Vespas seem to have a higher center of gravity. Stick with Asian scooters.

I'm maybe 5' 11' and I find the 650 roomier. My 400s were nice, but soon as I sat on a 650 I realized my knees had way more room. So don't buy before you "try one on for size." I rode and enjoyed the 400s for a long time though.

[@bruhdamartinasty3636]

I think 300cc is too small for busy freeways, like what we have in LA. Need at least 400. I tested the popular Piaggio BV350 on a freeway and it felt like it was going to self-destruct at 60 MPH. It's too light. Maybe that's the issue.

300cc is plenty safe for freeway riding, what really matters is weight and speed. There are 300cc that can reach the same speeds as 400's and some are faster than 400cc. Not to mention there are people who ride 200cc on the freeway without a problem.

It depends what motorcycle you are talking about. My Burgman 400 corners easier than any big bike I've owned. Even in tight mountain twisties, there is no worry about scraping.
