    Topic Approved.

    Since you have mentioned in clear-cut terms that your 'first love' has always been the ZMA, then it would not be so bad waiting for the new ZMA for about a month or so.

    P.S: Please type in proper English and not in SMS lingo, like you have done for a few words.

          I don't think you needed to start this thread at all! The answer is already in your mind!

              ur love for zma shud keep you waiting for the new Zmr..
              also by that time you could also save up that speculated xtra money that it'll cost above P220

                  it is better to wait for New ZMA. If you don't like it (which is not possible) but if it is expensive then P220 DTSi then you can think of what to buy. It then comes down to which is more a VFM.

                    If the new ZMA is higher than 223cc, then go for it. Or else go for P220.

                    Let the wars begin

                      By the legacy which Hero Honda has i feel New ZMA or ZMR will be a turn down, also in the pictures too it doesn't feel so refreshing it still has the not moved away from the dated looks of the old one.
                      Some where in orkut i read that its gonna be 19 bhp which is lesser than Pulsar 220.
                      Never upgrade without getting your basics RIGHT.

                        Wait for the new Karizma...its again going to be a trend setter among Indian motorcycles in 200cc+ category like the way Karizma was when it was launched

                        And if someone tells u that HOnda has given an old engine to HH and blah blah blah...so be it man! Would you really care about it if it makes the bike the best in the business?

                        Yes, its gonna be expensive but then you are getting one of the most reliable technologies (PGM-FI) the motorcycling world has ever seen! Its a fact everyone knows!

                        Whereas looks are concerned, if it suits your eye then its all fine

                        So wait for it. You don't want to say later "mannn....I could have spend more and got this new Karizma!!!"

                          I have the same problem, Launch of ZMR is not confirmed by HH. And 220 is rich in Safety features, Tubeless, rear Disk, Projector Lamp......

                          But Karizma's finish for even ZMA is superb, paint quality, graphics, Fairing & Engine refinement.

                          Dealer for HH are saying that it cud get delayed till October........ Tried to contact HH marketing guys, even they are not letting the exact date like thing.......


                          Guys, I have a few queries for ZMA
                          1. Can Pulsar 220 tyres be finely put in ZMa wheels?
                          2. Can the wheel change be done for rear wheel, with 220's to add rear disk?
                          3. Is there any great Head Light upgrade possible for ZMA?


                          I guess, if all the 3 above can be done, i will go and buy ZMA

                          Parry
                          Every time i am able to change my bike's engine oil, i feel like passing another semester amongst thousands, of being a proficient rider.

                            Your first question is a sure no-no since Pulsar's are 17"wheels and Zma's 18". The same apply to your second query.
                            Third read light thread in UT to know about HID's or other bulbs.
