Futuristic Style Packed with Gadgets

Let’s be honest for a moment. We all know that Honda scooters are nothing much to look at in terms of style. They’re known to be well built and reliable, not stylish. Things have changed dramatically with the Honda Forza 250. This model boasts futuristic styling – sleek and nice on the eyes.
The Forza 250 provides a comfortable ride with its huge seat and high back support. It’s easy to steer (it maneuvers like a much smaller scooter would) and can reach a top speed of 68mph. You won’t have to worry about your safety while riding this model; the braking and suspension system is strong with both front and back discs.
In addition to the awesome styling, Honda packed the Forza with tons of cool gadgets. First you have the keyless ignition system that “turns the scooter on” when the rider approaches (you have to have a tiny device on you for it to work of course). Once the scooter is on, just hit the start button. There’s also a hidden slot for a regular key for emergencies. The next gadget is the transmission. You can choose 3 modes from Drive, Sport and Manual. Drive is the best mode for fuel economy, while sport is good for passing. A toggle switch on the handlebars is all you need to switch modes.
If you need a lot of storage, the Forza has it. A roomy under seat compartment is perfect for a full face helmet as well as a smaller open face helmet. There are two small compartments up front – one that locks and one that doesn’t.
The Forza 250 isn’t really powerful enough to be used as a “touring” scooter. It’s also a bit large for tight traffic areas. If you’re looking for a second scooter that handles well, is comfortable to ride, has tons of storage space and a futuristic look, then the Forza 250 is for you.
