2025 Honda Forza 750 Arrives With Sharp New Look And Fresh Tech

Following hot on the heels of the updates for the closely related X-ADV, the Honda Forza 750 has received its own nip and tuck. It was already one of the best maxi scooters around, and a raft of updates should ensure it remains close to the top of the pile.

What’s new on the 2025 Forza 750?

We’ll start with the looks, as for once, we have a quite noticeable facelift that makes the front of the Forza 750 a whole lot sharper. There’s a new dual headlight unit with daytime running light indicators, and the use of a fancy plastic called ‘Durabio’.

The electric screen also looks different, because it’s now 25 per cent wider than the old bike’s. It has 120mm of height adjustment and comes with an automatic lowering function that activates when the ignition is turned off, rising back up to its previous position as soon as you’re moving again over 3mph.

You also get redesigned wheels, with the 17-inch front/15-inch rear sizing of the old bike retained. There are twin 320mm discs at the front combined with four-piston callipers, a two-piston calliper and a 240mm disc at the rear, and all of that works through two-channel ABS. The chassis retains the outgoing machine’s 41mm upside-down fork and Pro-Link rear suspension.

The seat height is a very accessible 790mm, and underneath it, there’s enough space to fit a full-face helmet. You won’t need to plug your mobile device in down there, though, because the USB-C socket has been shifted onto the handlebars. While there, you might also notice the updated five-inch TFT display, which uses the Honda RoadSync system for smartphone connectivity.

Also on the electronics front, there’s still a three-stage traction control system with Rain, Standard and Sport modes, although Rain has been tweaked for the 2025 model year bike. Cruise control, meanwhile, now features as standard.

Powertrain-wise, things look very familiar, with a 745cc parallel twin providing 58bhp and the option to buy a restricted 47bhp version for A2 license holders. As before, it drives the wheel through a dual-clutch gearbox (DCT), but it’s been tweaked, gaining new tech that estimates oil pressure in the clutch piston chamber, which Honda says gives "Improved, more delicate clutch response”. The manufacturer focused on improving smoothness off the line and control under 6mph, while the latter aimed at making U-turns easier.

As for how all of this works out from behind the bars, we’ll be updating this page once we’ve ridden the bike at the international launch in the coming weeks.

2025 Honda Forza 750 pricing and availability

An exact figure hasn’t been released just yet, but we’d expect a modest rise on the £10,499 charged for the outgoing model. When it is available, you’ll be able to pick one of three new colours, all of which are a little subdued. There’s ‘Mat Ballistic Black Metallic’, ‘Iridium Gray Metallic’ with ‘Graphite Black’, and ‘Mat Warm Ash Metallic’.

A whole host of accessories will be available, either individually or grouped together in the Comfort Pack, Style Pack, Travel Pack or Urban Pack. Highlights include heated grips, fog lights, panniers and a parking cover.
