| Hi All, Does Honda sell the Reflex (NSS250**) in Europe? If not NSS250** what is the model? Does it have the extra front side lights like the Silverwing? Thank You for your help.  |

| I never seen the reflex before, i would say: No
This modell is not in the actual selling program from Honda Germany, i have never seen it before neither on the road nor in magazins
Also the german google don't find anything on the words neither "Honda reflex" nor "Nss 250", it gives only english hits |

| I'm certain the Reflex never made it to Europe as a mainstream model, it was certainly never part of the UK Honda range. We had the CN250 Honda Helix from 1989 to 1991, apart from being the biggest engine scooter on the market, it was very expensive at £3500, few were sold and Honda quietly dropped it from the range.
I bought a new US import Helix in 1996, the only choice available back then, but by 2000 we had the Yamaha YP250 Majesty Mk2, Suzuki AN250 Burgman, Piaggio X9250, Malaguti Madison 250, and the Honda FES250 Foresight.
A couple of years later and apart from the Foresight all the other models were now available as 400's, and the Piaggio as the X9500. Honda had brought out the 600 Silver Wing, so there was little point in bringing the Reflex to the UK.

| The reason I was asking is, I received an inquiry about a headlight power pigtail connector, like I make for the Silverwing for low voltage accessory requirements. I was wondering if the Honda Reflex had the extra (7th) power wire for the side lights like on the European Silverwing model. A lesson learned and a product that will always be correct for this application. |

| I think the Forza is the exact same as the Reflex. |

| I believe they called it the Jazz in Europe, check the Honda reflex owners group on yahoo.. Lots of people that could answer it there |

| The Reflex and Forza look to be the same model, similarly they called the Helix the Spazio in Italy, and the Fusion in others.
Honda use the name Jazz for a hatchback here in the UK, that's the Honda Fit elsewhere. Confusing isn't it. |
