Across the pond in Europe, scooters are extremely popular, especially for folks shuttling in and around town. Their compact dimensions, ample storage space, and affordable price tags make them much more practical options than cars, and even more so than standard motorcycles. Among the top-selling small-displacement models are, unsurprisingly, from Honda, in the form of the Forza series which comes in 125 and 350 flavors.
The Forza 125 and 350 have been updated for the 2024 model-year, but their updates are pretty much confined to mild styling revisions in the form of color updates. There are also some changes to the bodywork, with new chiseled dual-headlights, and angular fairings inspired by the bigger Forza 750 touring scooter. In terms of amenities, Honda doesn’t hesitate to provide a lot of features such as an electronically adjustable screen, a USB Type-C charging socket, underseat storage space that’s big enough for two full-face helmets, and even Smart Key operation.
