Long distance trip on a Honda Forza 125 (Netherlands to France)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- 14 Days on the road and I was in 6 countries: Netherlands, Germany, France, Switzerland, Italy and Luxembourg.
The Forza has it all, it can store enough luggage and it's very comfortable. I travelled alone and stayed in hotels.
I had zero problems with this bike.
I made a new video after this one: On a Honda Forza 125 through the Alps.

I think Honda should sponsor you for this, it is a wonderful video. It is not so much about the bike as to a lifestyle, an adventure, feeling free from the daily craziness. I’ve had a bike licence for 30 years, but not owned a bike for many, many years. I was thinking of going back to two wheels. But couldn’t;t decide what, I was favouring the CB500X. But with the comfort, practicality, flexibility of a Scooter and having watched your video, I think I now want a Forza (300). Thanks for having so much fun and sharing it with us all. Keep riding safely and enjoyably.
En España también viajamos largas distancias con la Forza 125, solo que con buen clima, sol y pudiendose bañar en la playa o la piscina, con una jarra de cerveza bien fria.
Big balls! I like videos like these to show to my people that you don’t need a big bike for making big tours around the world. Keep safe
I used to ride Fieblades, ZXRs and they're great but you see so much more at lower speeds and they're just as much fun to ride.
Best video ever.Never seen a video thru those mountains before.Beautiful.
Hello Gerdien, thank you for a great film. I am buying a new Forza 300 for a round trip of Spain & this has inspired me! Ride safe!
Mooie samenvatting, knap filmpje, aangename aangepaste muziek.
Thx voor het delen en ons een stukje mee te laten genieten van deze mooie trip.
My favorite videos on the net right now.
Just pure awesome cruising in the countryside.
beatiful places , excellent music choice ( love Millionaire Derek Clegg song ) and a forza . Life is simple and wonderful . I hope to see you on some Spanish road . Thx for the video ;) greetings from Spain ma'am
Thank you for naming the song 👍
Perfect video - wonderful trip. Thank you 🙂
I miss living near the Eifel. 😢
Prachtige reis. Veel herkenbare stukken. Helaas alweer een tijdje geleden dat ik 'en route' was.
Hello Gerdien, thank you for making such an inspiring video. I have a Honda CBF125 and now my partner and I are planning an adventure like yours. I think we can do it!
Just do it. It'll be amazing.
I really like my Forza 350, I live in the mountains and parking on the flat can be difficult.
A wire clip to hold the rear brake lever against the handlebar was an easy and useful fix.
Lovely video, saludos desde España.
4 y and i stumbled upon this. I just got my first maxi scooter. It has the same engine as yours.This really inspired me to have a solo trip with mine. I already ride since 12 yo with my parent's super cub trail 90. Maybe i'll do a trip with my father and his cub after that
You got a great thumbnail plus awesome content.
BTW that first song is exactly what riding freely is all about :)
Do you know what the song is called?
Beautiful scenery!
Thanks for sharing your wonderful tour! Beautiful landscape and fine Music :)...
Great tour, cheers
beautiful place beautiful trip very nice video
thank you for this nice video and your sharing
Very nice scenery!!! I just test rode one recently and I was very pleased and surprised coming from a Yamaha NMAX. I know the Honda is a maxiscooter but it is definitely much more comfortable and I suppose for longer trips as well. Thinking of getting maybe the new Forza 300 when it comes out.
Thank you for the beautiful video.
It looks so nice, that I want to start the same tour.
Honda makes the best scooters in the world. Even the Honda SH models.
In Italy, the Honda Scooters are more popular, as the Vespas.
I think, in Italy is also a Honda Scooter factory ?
My scooter 125 cc, 4-stroke, is an old Yamaha Cygnus 4 NB.
But he is made in France by MBK. (Before named Motobecane)
Sounds crazy. But very good made, and runs more than 20 years.
Greetings from sw-germany.
Mooi, en heel herkenbaar allemaal. Volgende keer mag je ook je hotel/slaap of rustplaats in beeld brengen. En je bewijst iets door dit met een 125 cc-tje te doen!
Beautiful trip with fantastic Forza 125. 👍❤️
I love my Forza ... I'm often in Corsica with it and I'm just coming back from Sardegna ... what a pleasure
Very nice trip. Honda forever🤗👍
Thank you for the video. Great choice of roads for the trip. A nice variety of scenery, villages, cities and rural areas.
I did 7 countries road trip with honda forza 125 in summer 2021,with small camping tent.start in andorra ,spain costa brava, France all mediterranean coast , Italie san remo tyrol,Austria innsbruck ,germany munchen, czech republic. 5 days ,4 to come back .beautiful experience for me and my honda hang on really well.i just have malossi vario and embrayage( french sorry) good trip everybody.
Great trip lovely bike and beautifull views thanks for shering.
Awesome Trip! Thanks for sharing your adventure, it seems it was really good time and fun, ride safely :-) \m/
My longest trip so far was a circle around Czech Republic, 1600 km in 5 days.. It was AWESOME! :D This scoot is comfy, light, can pack shit loads of stuff, has low consumption, almost no insurance cost - PERFECT for people who are comfortable going around 100 km/h and just enjoy the scenery :) From day one, when I bought it I am happier every day. Zero maintenance. Zero problems. *cheers*
Hi. I am glad to hear that. Basically we just bought a new car, but when I look on those scenery, it makes me wonder to make a gift to wife and to buy this Forza. :) This kind of freedom you can experience only on motorbike. Do you think it can handle two adults in these kind of conditions? We were talking a lot about travelling on motorbike together, so I am glad I found this nice Honda. Thank you from Czech Republic :)
@@cednicek I am also from Czech Republic :D We go in two people often, if you weight together up to 180-200 kg than the scoot should handle it fine. But to be honest, if you have motorcycle A license, go for Forza 300. That extra 7kW really makes a difference in the end. But if you have just B license, Forza 125 is also fine, just dont expect miracles out of it :) I love it, everytime I start the engine, I am 100% sure that it will get me from A to B and back home to A :)
@@cednicek proč to vlastně nepíšu v češtině? :D
Thank you so much for help and response :) Ano, je pravda, ze muzeme psat v nasem rodnem jazyce, ale zase, aby se ostatni chytali :) Planuji se zkusit poptat primo v Honde ve Valaskem Mezirici, coz je nejblize od Olomouce pro me. S motorkami nemam zadnou zkusenost, jen ridicak klasika Bcko. Rikal jsem si, ze na dojizdeni do prace (cca 25km tam) a vylety s manzelkou nebo synem by to bylo akorat a nemusim zatim resit autoskolu. Pokusim se domluvit na nejake testovaci jizde, nemam vubec predstavu, co ocekavat :) Cestovni rychlost kolem 100 km/h je podle meho absolutne fajn. Skoda, ze to nema tempomat. @@kikisekscotermann5332
@@cednicek Forza je super, lepší než PCX nebo SH, je větší, pro dva mnohem pohodlnější, jeden z důvodu proč jsem kupoval zrovna ji, i když je o dost dražší, stojí za to :) Za sezónu na ní najedu 9-10000km, je to soudě podle všeho naprosto spolehlivá mašinka. Uvidíme se na Wallachian Scooter Rider? :D Každý rok, 1. června v Rožnově pod Radhoštěm, bude to moje 3. účast.
Nice scenery
Hallo Gerdien, ik heb pas je video's ontdekt en geniet van je mooie routes in de bergen. Rij zelf vanaf 4 juni 2020 met een 125 Piaggio Medley iGet met ook 11 kW. en zie dat je met dit vermogen prima de cols kan bedwingen. Je bent een voorbeeld voor rijders met een lichte motorscooter.
I've never seen such beauty.
Zdrowych i Wesołych Świąt Bożego Narodzenia 😊🌲☃️
Great man! Who can dislike this btw?
i am asking myself as well ...
I also have a Forza 125 , and love it . Well done
Hello bravo for this good road trip 3500 kms honda is the best thanks for sharing big big like
Congratulations for your trip. I Think you're a very lucky person . Iwish I could make a trip like this
Great vlog 👍 Greetings from Portugal 🌹🌹🌹
Prachtige rit en video. Respect.
Very nice video, well done !!!!!! nice bike
Thanks for sharing this. I hope that I someday may be able to make a trip like this.
Nice video mate .
I rode my cbr 125 to peak District from bham an wales best thing ever
Amazing trip that was. Lovely places. Thank you!
Absolutely lovely scenery and places. Just after watching and knowing we just bought a new car with my wife, I am thinking to make a surprise for her and buy this great motorbike to a enjoy smiliar trip. We have been talking about it for a while, so maybe it is time...for this particular scooter I don't need a driving licence other than for a car. Only thing I am bit afraid of is whether it can handle two adults on these kind of conditions and hills... Thank you so much for this eyes opening video, kind of motivation for me! Have a great day
If anybody can help me to confirm this scooter has enough power for two adults and this kind of traveling, I would be glad :) I don't expect any sport ride as it is obvious due to low power, but for general traveling it might be enough. I don't have any experience with motorbikes, so my question might sound sily. Thank you so much
@@cednicek
It can be done. I went to a hotel a few times with two people on it. All went well.
I was in doubt whether to buy the new forza 300 for find day trips of 200-300 miles per day. With this beautiful video i've removed any doubt. Thanks :-)
I used to do trips on motorbikes and I must say that this scooter is much more comfortable.
Awesome trip!
Wonderful trip with honda
Great Tour, good video 👏👍
Mooie video met leuke fragmenten en de scooter Forza 125 een hele nette en luxe uitvoering, maat in NL niet zo bekend en voor 2d hands moet je naar Belgie of Frankrijk gaan
Well Done ! Amazing Bike, Amazing Views : ) Malta
Taka wycieczka,to miód na moje serce 😊👍... zazdroszczę 😊👍
Merci pour cette vidéo je suis un amoureux de la nature tu ma fais rêver merci beaucoup
Leuke trip daar houd ik wel van .zelf doen wij ook zulke trips veel succes .
Bravo, pour votre courage.
Jolie vidéo.
How I wish they will release this in the Philippines. This is a perfect small-displacement scooter, it will kill all competitors in the market, I am looking forward to own this one in the future.
Love it!! I have a new Honda Forza 2022 🙂
Cool and nice ride bro
exelent video thanks a lot .
its very beautiful
now i want a forza :)
Im amaze in Netherlands but actually my dream country Switzerland... But i think goin in Switzerland is only a dream for me coz its very far in Philippines! Hays
Awesome !
Thanks for sharing.
Brilliant thank you.
I am planning this on my burgman and eventually on to spain
what a great adventure, i really wanted to do this too sometime :D keep up the great job sir
MOTORCYCLELOVER john
You may call me ma'am. ;)
Gerdien B omg really sorry 🤣
MOTORCYCLELOVER john
Don't be sorry, I thought it was funny. :)
Een 125 of 250 lijkt mij de perfecte motor voor binnendoor.
Ben zelf aan het kijken voor een Piaggio MP3 en de 300 schijnt beter te zijn voor stad en B-wegen. De 500 komt tot leven boven de 50 en eigenlijk pas 80km/h.
Many Many thanks of Provence, your vidéo is realy great !!!!! ( i'm going to by the same forza.....) funny !!!!!
Magnifique vidéo, un beau voyage 👌
Bravo
Avez vous le tracé de l'itinéraire ? Ce serait vraiment super 😊
In a world dominated by mostly gentlemen riders.its nice to see a lady do some long distance riding.do you see very many lady riders in Europe?great job with your videos and cant wait to see more
Thanks!
I hardly see women ride alone on long trips.
@@Gerdien2000 have a great time with your scoot,what kind of camera do use on your scooter videos
What a nice Person Gerdi is❤❤❤😘😘😘😘😘❤❤
Thank you VERY MUCH for the video. Now I don't need anything else to get my Forza 125cc :D
It's all you need if you aren't a speed devil. :)
In that kind of trip, speeding is a crime :D
Did you ever needed to achieve speeds greater than 100km/h?
Not at that trip, I avoided highways. Average speed was about 60.
I only ride up to 120km/hour when I drive to my work on the freeway.
Awesome. Thanks for the reply and keep up those amazing videos :D
What a great machine they are! I am currently saving for the new 2021 model. So looking forward to it!
bersih indah pemandangan 👍
You passed on my village 🇨🇭
veľmi pekné video
Lovely video, proving you do not need to go fast or be on a BMW GS to enjoy a trip like this Well done! Can you please tell us what camera/video editing kit / drone you used or recommend please…?
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Super gedaan en dat met een 125cc. Hoe ging het in de bergen?
Zou leuk zijn een video van je Forza te maken....soort van review na zo een lange reis.....
Noebiwan Kenobi
Ging prima in de bergen.
Bergopwaarts op langerekte hellingen ging ie vaak toch nog 100km/uur. Alleen op de echt steile stukken soms maar 55km/uur. Maar viel over het algemeen niet tegen voor een 125cc. De motor is krachtiger dan de meeste andere 125cc motoren.
Afremmen op de motor deed ie goed. Maar dan moet wel het startstop systeem uit, want anders slaat de motor af.
very good !
Thanks for putting on YT
so nice saw this video..thats my dream to be come traveler using small displacement motorcycle here in the entire philippines. in Gods Grace..
Leuk!!! Ik droom ook van deze dingen, hopelijk kan ik het eens met mijn "pixie" ( honda pcx)
Very beautiful. Sorry my English is very bad but i ts a great vidéo
Riding a bike in Europe so much different & no doubt more enjoyable then here in UK. So many unobservant drivers here & don't care that someone's life & family is on that bike.
sehr schönes video! grüße aus deutschland
😍
Mooie reis! Heb je alles gefilmd of af en toe de camera aangezet?
Amersfoort81
Camera af en toe even aan. Meer video heb ik ook niet. ;)
Anders moet je ook een lading SD-kaartjes meenemen. ;) Mooie omgevingen. Moet op de Forza 125 prima te doen zijn!

Als je alles filmt is geen doen. Je haalt jezelf ook een plens werk op de hals.
Mijn camera trilt als ik het aan en uit zet, dus ik weet altijd wat ik doe. Ik voel en hoor het. Ik heb een Ion Air Pro.
that was just great, what more can you say? thanks
Very very nice video i have same model
Thank you for great video.
I loved this video, I try to planning similar what have you done. I would like to asking how did you attached a phone holder on scooter? I am going to buy a Honda Forza 125...
Even that’s also my question.. how did you fix your iPhone to your forza??
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nice ride!) Do you have a map with tracking?
No, I haven't. I just followed my TomTom Urban Rider with the option winding roads.
Wat nam jij allemaal mee voor zo een trip?
Ik ga iets gelijkaardigs doen, alleen naar de vogezen voor een week..

Ik sliep in hotels, dus heel veel heb je niet nodig.
Ik had een bandenreparatieset bij me, een plaatje voor onder de jiffy voor zachte grond en verder niks bijzonders.
Fantastico!!!! 👍👍👍👍
What is the song when you arrive in Troyes? Thank you! Great video!
I don't remember, sorry.
Thank you..nice video
