Expanding the Forza franchise with new motorcycle models for every rider.
Forza 5 Motorcycles
A place for Forza fans to share, discuss and celebrate everything related to the franchise. Remember to respect reddiquette and keep it clean.
Adding bikes to Forza Motorsport or Horizon would require different physics for motorcycles & cars and that doesn’t sit well in either games. Besides, it was done in PGR4 and people got punted off all the time.
The Forza 750
As the flagship of the Forza family, the 750 is a rolling statement of aspiration. Compact enough to navigate traffic, yet comfortably roomy for two, it delivers outstanding high-speed wind protection and a chassis that elevates handling. Its practical under seat storage will take a full-face helmet, while the TFT instrument display features Honda RoadSync and allows rider to access their smartphone.
The heart of the Forza is a liquid-cooled 745cc parallel-twin engine. Peak power of 57bhp arrives well before 7000rpm, with torque spread across a wide rev range to give a feeling of easy pace.
Where the Forza 750 really deviates from the scooter norm is with its smart dual-clutch transmission. Offering three riding modes that alter power delivery, throttle mapping and engine braking levels, it operates much like a car’s automatic system, with the option to manually control shift patterns if desired. 17-inch front and 15-inch rear cast aluminium wheels provide confident handling while 310mm front and 240mm rear tyres provide stable, surefooted grip.
The Forza 350
The Forza 350 is the perfect choice for commuting, offering a smart, stylish and premium looking large capacity ride with plenty of practical features. Sculpted for both style and aerodynamic efficiency its smooth lines give a feeling of energetic sportiness and premium desirability. A fresh new spoiler-type surround below the headlight and steeply descending character line for the fairing side panels are combined with a larger front air duct that manages negative pressure, effectively reducing the natural effect of wind pushing the rider back at high speeds.
A new ‘enhanced Smart Power+’ engine gives more power and torque for improved acceleration with no increase in weight. The pillion grabrails are now plastic rather than aluminium, saving 1407g, while a refined electric screen offers up to 40mm of adjustability, improving aerodynamics and providing even more protection at higher speeds. Other essential features include keyless ignition, a theft-deterring Smart key, a USB charging socket and underseat storage capable of carrying two full-face helmets.
The Forza 650
The Forza’s rumbling twin-cylinder engine isn’t exactly lacking in zip. With a 270@ firing interval, peak power arrives well before 7000rpm and grunt is spread right across the rev range to give it effortless pace and flexibility.
The 745cc parallel-twin is sourced from Honda’s NC750 family, so you can expect long service life and low maintenance bills. It’s a smooth unit that’s designed for economy and soothing thrumming rather than giddy excitement, but it also proves to be very efficient and easily returns 70mpg on a brisk run, with the 13.2-litre tank easily giving you 200 miles of range.
To help you get the most from it, the Forza uses a six-speed DCT (dual-clutch transmission). It’s not like the thrashy variable drive found in most scooters and instead gives you the ability to choose how keenly it shifts using buttons on the left handlebar. Different modes change the power, engine braking and traction control settings too.
The Forza 125
The Forza 125 was an instant hit when it rolled off the production line back in 2015, its comprehensive mix of sporty and premium GT elements providing traffic-busting agility around town and long-range commuting for two. A class-leading four valve liquid cooled engine, compact dimensions and sports-oriented attitude matched with sit-in comfort and plenty of storage were the key ingredients.
For 2021 the Forza 125’s sharp design lines flow front to back with a re-shaped front fairing and LED headlights to complement the sophisticated Forza signature look. A new electric screen can be raised or lowered through 180mm to provide wind protection for the rider and reduce wind noise, or lowered to increase freedom for urban commuting and highway cruising.
The sure-footed chassis and nimble handling are complimented by front 256mm disc brakes and rear 240mm discs with Honda Selectable Torque Control to maintain rear tyre grip. Smart keyless ignition, smartphone connectivity and built-in storage areas are additional features.
