Everybody I know have had these problems with the Karizma up there! Zma is NOT as good in higher altitudes as it is in the plains. This issue needs to be highlighted for Leh aspirants. They should be aware.
ok..so now even FZ & ZMA have problems doing this trip....So which is the perfect bike in terms of perfomance, relaibility & build quality for Leh.... leaving aside the Bullets.
