In this video I talk about some of the things I do to stay warm when I'm on my bike during the winter months.
But why?

Come with me on a night trip into Ipswich Town centre on the Honda Forza 125. I test out the Osmo Action 4 in night mode, and also the DJI Mic 2 using the dji lav mic. In this video I talk about my upcoming motorcycle theory test.
Honda Forza 125 Trip

Quick trip out on the Honda Forza 125, first ride with the Osmo Action 4. In this video I touch on the things I like and dislike about the Honda Forza after a few weeks of ownership. Equipment used:- DJI Osmo Action 4 DJI Mic 2
I recommend upgrading your tires to the Michelin City Grip 2 tires. Fantastic for wet road surfaces.
I've got a feeling they're actually the tires that are already on it! I'll have a check.
Sorry to hear that mate. I got my forza in October and am determined to ride through winter, 4 hour commute 2-3 times a week. I had a feeling of the back end moving a little this week on a quiet road in London that was icy, but have largely been OK, even in heavy rain. I think it must have been a fuel spill. Keep at it and maybe wait for a day with nice weather to go out and get your confidence back.
Thanks, yeah it's always at the back of my mind now, as you say, probably wait for some better weather and regain a bit of confidence!
Great video, i got my forza 125 in October and am doing a 90 mile round trip commute 2-3 times a week through London. Love it so far. For those who haven't been on one, it is larger around your legs than the camera angle makes it look like - wind protection is good and it really feels like a maxi scooter.
Hearing you talk about the cold, I've done my 4 hour 90 mile commute twice this week in 0-2 degree temperatures! Had 6 layers on top and was just about ok!
Have you done your A license yet? We wanna know!
Cool video! Subscribed. I'm debating whether i should save up for the forza 125 or do my A license instead and then get an actual motorcycle.
Well done for passing the theory test. Thank you also for your video uploads regarding the Honda Forza 125. Love the bike
Hi, are you not doing anymore forza ride out vids.
Hi bro, on your opinion which is better, forza or PCX?
Forza
Hi I have the same scooter, love it to bits, passed my theory test 6 months ago with the intention of getting a REAL motorbike as some people like to call them LOL. the thing is these scooters tick so many boxes for me at aged 60. Brilliant storage, brilliant 120 MPG , great wind protection, easy to ride twist and go. with all that said i'm just going to keep my honda forza 125 and do another 1 day CBT training then get another 2 years riding...saves all the bother and cost, at least it does for me at my age.good luck and enjoy your riding journey
Do they allow you to keep taking the CBT or must you take other tests at some point? I like the idea of getting back on two wheels (old scooter boy here! lol) but can't justify the cost and effort of getting a full bike license.....which is what I should have got back in the sixties! Thank you for commenting.
@@boomerblacksheep afaik you can do cbt for infinity.
@@skillfuldabest Thanks for getting back to me. Much appreciated. wish I'd have taken by bike test back in the day now!
Its not the L plate bud, its the fact its a "Scooter" believe me i ride a scooter (SH 300) and in 1500 miles 1 biker has nodded waved. Ive had many big bikes over the years and i now just want a scooter to ride round town and potter about.
Agree, I have a forza 125 no L plates, no biker nods in 1,500 miles and counting!
Here in germany, I get greeted by bikers on my 50cc scooter like every second encounter. In the end, we all just drive bikes because we like it, no discrimination between the power.
@@buttergolem8584 in Mainland Europe that maybe the case, but not over here.
I don't ride now, but when I started in 1970 we didn't need to wear a helmet. I remember riding to my girlfriend's house aged seventeen wearing trainers, jeans and tee shirt; what a poser.
Wow no helmet in this country?!?!
Like I said on the Forza group today buddy...keep them vids coming
What's your choice of motorcycle helmet? Full face? Open face? Flip Front? None at all?!?!? Let me know in the comments below.
Hi, what year is the bike on?...I have the 2024 and I love it...storage is great, milage is fantastic....the suspension in my experience is that it takes time to settle in. I've been camping on mine
hi there, it's a 2021 model. Storage is amazing, especially with the top box. Just not enjoying the suspension when I go over a bump in the road!
@@RoadOverload I agree
