Forza 300 2020

[Deleted User 407]

Can anyone tell me if there is any difference between the 2019 forza and the 2020 version.I am sure i read that it has a higher seat and slightly redesigned but am wondering if that info was taken from the press release when it was redesigned in 2018.
On another note has anyone about 6 foot and 17 stone ridden one and their impressions in the bike.Okay I know i should shed some pounds.
Cheers .

As far as I am aware the 2020 model is the same,I understand there is a special edition model available in grey with different seat stitching. I have a 2019 model having downsized from a silverwing I am 6ft 5in 13 and a half stone and regularly ride with a 9 stone pillion and find the bike comfy enough with a screen extender and adequate for the riding I do.

If you haven't already check out Mr Fish on you Tube he reviewed the Forza and he is a similar weight and size to yourself.

i'm 5'9 an 17 stone. an when i test rode lynn's it seemed fine. pulled well enough. although when i made my mind up what to buy i bought a burger 400. bit more power although not as comfy seat. the seat is always what lets a bike/scoot down.. iv'e liked many bikes/scoot's but it just seems hardly any actually make a comfy seat . the comfiest seat iv'e ever sat on was a Can-Am spider . but they are silly money, an very few dealers .

Thanks for the replies.

Honda uk are annoying me at the minute.Some dealers are offering the air force edition without the box and some are supplying it with a cheap box and not the one advertised on Honda website.

I am 6ft and 17.5st and have the old forza, its currently for sale as i find it a bit cramped but i have long legs and a bony arse.

6'3 and nearer 20st in these isolating times! Not ridden, but sat on one and it felt more cramped, but then I prefer feet forward. There's a handy site that can give an impression/comparison, so long as the scoots are on their list.

So having took the bike out for a test ride it was so different being back on the scooter from motorbikes.I sat down with dealer who is advertising the bike with a top box and 4.9% interest rate.He works out the figures for me and then comes back with £90 a month with my deposit and minus the box.When I ask him that is a bit steep as i was putting £300deposit it he then says as i am part exchanging a bike, the interest rate has gone up from 4.9 to 6.9%

Funny but i have never known the dealer to do that before.

Jeez. You'd think he'd be grateful that someone wants to buy a new bike in the middle of a pandemic, but that's dealers for you. Walk away, and that interest rate will magically fall to 4.9% again.

did walk away after saying i will look at the figures. I am guessing dealers must be busy as i contacted another two about two days ago seeing what deals they would do and i have heard nothing back.
