From what you're saying it sounds like you should get the Forza 350. You emphasized the weather protection you get from the scooter vs a standard bike which is important in a commuter, and you already have another bike for fun. Myself, I have a PCX160 for commuting, and a Triumph Bonneville for fun in the weekends. They're both great for I want to use them for. I wouldn't mind swapping the PCX for a bigger scooter, but I'll be staying with a scooter and a conventional bike.

@@misfirems Perhaps i will find a place close to the battery. I want to avoid to dismout a lot of things. to pull cables. I never have luck with plastic parts and always damage this little clips :) The tracker i use has a integrated small battery which will make it work for 42hrs in "online mode" It also has a inteligent "charging" circuit - that only powers the device from the bike's battery if the internal one gets low. So im not very affraid of it sucking low the battery. :)

For those with a PCX 160, I wanted to note, with this windshield installed my top speed on the same stretch of highway, with out drafting off of any cars, increased from a steady 68 mph to 70 mph. The pcx seems to not want to go over 70 mph, even when drafting a car or going downhill. I believe it is limited to 70. I will eventually add a performance variator and Dr p sliders.

Took mine 240 miles up the M1 from south Yorkshire to E Lothian. Handled it no bother. Just stuck in lane 1 most of the way with the lorries. 😎 Used it loads of times on the A1 in & out of Edinburgh without any issues. Have been seriously looking at buying a Forza 350 but it's defo not cheap, insurance is over double the PCX, tax is over double, fuel consumption is 80mpg instead of 130. Not sure I can justify it when I've got a cheap to run wee car for those longer journeys. Car gets 59mpg, servicing is cheaper & even insurance is way cheaper than a Forza 350. Always hire 125 scooters on holiday as well. Protective clothing, European style - jeans & a t-shirt whilst bombing down a hill at 70mph on an Aprilia Sportcity 125 in Greece. Not sensible, but fun! 😁
