Eh?? I thought that the Xmax had a peach of an engine, but its suspension was harsh and inferior to the Forza?? This seems to be saying the opposite! (I've never ridden either).

I've ridden a 125 xmax 2 up for 3 days in South of France was good 👍

Xmax has the full front forks

From experience of both, I'd say the Xmax is more of a 'rider's bike' with firmer suspension and sharper, fun, handling; while the Forza feels a bit more grown-up and comfortable with a rather stronger but thirstier engine. Neither has a brilliant ride quality on crap roads; but they're small-wheel scooters!

Mr Grumpy has it. I haven't ridden the Forza but as an ex Xmax owner of 3 years, I can confirm it had an excellent engine and p*ss poor rear springs.
