Do you know anything about traditional financing? I had heard you can finance them with 40,000 baht down. We hope you have a blast, James! Reply James on January 18, 2014 at 7:58 AM Thanks guys, loved Chiang Mai so looks like we will be moving there this year to look at business. Had a couple questions for you& Was the $5800 price out the door after everything? Were there any other hidden costs or expenses? And I take it you shopped around a bit and got the best price? Interesting that you bought it with a credit card& hadnt thought of that! I actually considered financing it as well. The bike is already displayed at their showroom. Reply Jason Green on March 15, 2014 at 11:27 PM Hey Chris! I am a fellow Chiang Mai resident as well, and have been following your blog for a while (I actually have been going to Baan Homemade Bakery quite a bit after your recommendation I have been renting a PCX 150 for a few months, but have decided that the Forza is the way to go. I now have three. I have had it up to 130km an hour on the highway and the ride is fine. Share This Facebook Pinterest Twitter StumbleUpon Buffer Google+ LinkedIn reddit Gmail . Let me know what you end up doing.
After seeing and reading all the reviews about the Honda CBR 250R I am quiet satisfied with the bike. All over it was a great experience riding it. Reply Chris on July 18, 2013 at 12:26 AM Hey Tom, motorcycles are around the same price as bikes in western countries, but cars are definitely priced higher here in Thailand. While I had wanted something that was passenger-comfortable and had a decent amount of storage room (under the seat or external storage rack), Chris wanted something that was more substantial in size and that had more get-up.Forza ProsSmooth Ride: Between the power, the larger wheels, and the ultra wide seat, it is comfortable enough for longer rides.Extreme Storage Space: Includes enough room under the seat for two full faced helmets, has two small front compartments (one even has a plug-in spot for a phone charger), and can also be equipped with an external storage rack.11.5 L (3 gal) Tank : This should take us about 350 km (220 miles) per tank.Forza ConsBig: Its heavier and significantly longer than the average scooter, making handling and parking a bit more challenging.Wide Turning Radius: Similar to a motorcycles, its not possible whip around a u-turn like a smaller scooter.Expensive: This bad boy cost $5800 USD, but still less than the supposed $7k price tag when released in Canada in 2014.Another shot of our 2013 Honda ForzaBefore we purchased the bike, we had to provide a residence certificate, which we obtained from the Chaing Mai Immigration Office.The bike came with a free helmet and backpack, three year warranty, as well as personal injury insurance. Oh, and we did a 3 hour ride a few weeks ago and I my comfort level was fine throughout the trip. All are for sale. I love being able to zip through traffic in the city though.
