Honda Forza 125
The Honda Forza 125 has a top speed of 115 km/h, produces 12.9 hp and weighs 163 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
Le Honda Forza 125 a été introduit en 2015 en tant que maxi-scooter haut de gamme destiné aux navetteurs urbains à la recherche de confort et de style dans le segment des 125 cm3. Il a fait l'objet d'une importante refonte en 2021, avec l'acquisition d'un nouveau moteur Esp+ à distribution variable (VVT), d'une efficacité énergétique améliorée et d'une apparence plus sophistiquée inspirée de ses grands frères Forza. Il se distingue par le fait qu'il s'agit de l'un des scooters 125 cc les plus riches en fonctionnalités disponibles, offrant une connectivité à un smartphone, un grand compartiment de rangement sous le siège et le système Smart Key de Honda.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Honda Reliability Record
The Forza 125 uses Honda's proven eSP engine technology, known for extremely low failure rates and intervals of up to 8,000km between services. Owners consistently report 50,000+ km with minimal mechanical issues.
Watch the Belt Drive
The CVT drive belt is the most common wear item to monitor — neglected belts can snap unexpectedly, leaving you stranded. Budget for replacement around every 20,000–25,000km and check for slipping or jerky acceleration as early warning signs.
Strong Resale Value
The Forza 125 holds its value exceptionally well compared to rival scooters, typically retaining 60–70% of its value after three years. The Honda badge and low running costs keep used demand consistently high.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"The sensible choice that rarely disappoints — predictably brilliant urban transport."
$2,500-$4,500 usedThe Forza 125 is Honda doing what Honda does best — building something utterly reliable and slightly boring in the best possible way. Used examples from 2018 onwards are genuinely solid picks for urban commuters. The 125cc engine pulls smoothly up to motorway speeds if you're brave enough, though you'll be wringing its neck above 60mph. The underseat storage swallows a full-face helmet, which remains a genuine competitive advantage over most rivals. Buy one with a full service history and check the CVT belt — Honda recommends replacement around 10,000 miles and previous owners frequently ignore this. Fork seals are another known weak point on higher-mileage bikes, so bring a torch and check carefully. Brake discs warp prematurely if the previous owner liked dragging them at speed. At the right money, say £2,500-£3,500 for a clean 2019-2022 example, this is arguably the smartest used scooter purchase under £4,000. It won't excite you, but it absolutely won't let you down either.
