The Honda Forza 750 maxi-scooter has won the outstanding motorcycle design award at the Red Dot Design Awards for 2021. Last year, Honda won the first Red Dot Design Award for a motorcycle with the Honda CBR1000RR-R SP Fireblade, and the bike was also inducted into the Red Dot contemporary design museum in Essen, Germany. Now, the Forza 750 has won the motorcycle design category at this year's edition of the prestigious design awards. The Honda Forza 750 sits at the top of the Forza range of scooters, with 125 cc and 300 cc variants as well.
