Hello & intro from Swindon

Good evening!

I bought a new Forza 350 3 weeks ago and have been out today for 90 miles around Moreton in the Marsh and the Cotswolds.
Amazing weather and couldn't believe how many bikes were on the road, had a coffee at M-in the Marsh and super ride back down the Fosse Way. I have been very impressed so far with the bike and it's achieving 90 mpg.
Only gripe (not the bike's fault) is the dealer didn't PDI it very well and the handlebars are not straight when the wheel is facing forward!
I've previously had large motorcycles but just couldn't be bothered with a geared bike, hence the simplicity and comfort of the Forza.

Hi and welcome.

I've heard of a few Forza / ADV 350's with incorrectly set handlebars. Which although it's often only a small amount, it's really irritating!

Agree, its just lack of attention to detail by the dealership carrying out the PDI.

It's not unusual if the bike has been transported with the yoke strapped down.
