Where Comfort and Beauty Coexist: HONDA FORZA Custom

 5 min read

Webike's Opinion

Here is a "HONDA FORZA" custom by Webike community user "Ryo". The owner previously rode two motorcycles: a CBR650R for touring and an ADV150 for commuting. However, after searching for a single bike that could fulfill both roles, he settled on the FORZA. The main competitor was Yamaha’s X-MAX, but the FORZA won out thanks to its electric windshield, which offers seamless adjustment across a 180mm range.

“The FORZA has so many things I love!” the owner says enthusiastically. First and foremost is its sharp and commanding front design. The mirrors with integrated turn signals also add a touch of luxury, which he particularly appreciates. For winter rides, the combination of HONDA Sports Grip Heaters and handlebar covers ensures that even chilly morning commutes are no problem. To stay warm, the owner sets the electric windshield to a higher position to block the cold wind.

As a daily commuter, comfort is a top priority for the owner. The FORZA's relaxed, stretched-leg riding posture is a significant advantage. Additionally, he has installed ENDURANCE Step Boards with an anti-slip finish, making it safer and less slippery on rainy days. The boards are made from rust-resistant stainless steel (SUS304) and feature a design that seamlessly integrates with the bike, enhancing its customized look. Another standout feature is the under-seat storage, which accommodates two system helmets—perfect for quick grocery runs on the way home from work. The BEAMS R-EVO Full Exhaust really catches the eye against the black bodywork. The owner praises the beautiful heat-colored titanium finish and the satisfying thrum of the exhaust note.

One drawback of the bike is its tall seat height, which forces the 5'7" owner onto his tiptoes at stops. To address this, he added an SP Takegawa Airflow Seat Cover. This cover makes it easier to slide and adjust his position, allowing his feet to reach the ground more easily.

There’s no doubt that customizing the FORZA, which offers both excellent comfort as a commuter bike and effortless, enjoyable touring capability, unlocks an entirely new level of comfort.
