@Satellite.kid: I know you never meant that the Indian bikes can't give u the smile per km factor! But my point being we all should stop arguing on the base of smiles/km as the smiles per kilometre are relative and as we cannot quantify and measure it and hence it does not make a good argument for establishing any bike as worthy. Also we must agree that BlueBlitz and others also have a point in being worried about ZMRs top speed or other specs and they are not entirely wrong. The resason is that ZMA was launched in May 2003 with the round about similar specs and it took bajaj till late 2006 to complete and july 2007 to launch p220 to reach that spec!!! So to many of us speed freaks the big part of Karizma's charisma was that its spec was the better then any other bike in india (excluding the big bone breaker bullet 535 ). And now in 2009 their big hype about the new model they again had the chance to lead the way for the industry with all this competition and they provided us more or less the same spec! I mean Bajaj has long been teasing us all with the Nin250 and this time HH could have caught the worm of 250 being the early bird with a 250cc motor from Honda! Man, they have a great alliance with Honda and both companies have agreed to continue the HH beyond 2014 then why let the Bajaj have the pleasure of releasing the first Indian quarter litre??? I think many people are disappointed with this and let us poor fools for speed mourn for our loss for a while!

As per my research on the two wheelers market , honda tie-up with hh will never come to an end ,as they said in a press that they want to produce a good number of variants in each segment , like there are uni,hunk,cbzx in 150cc , stunner,shine,splendor 125,glamour in 125 cc segment , secondly i read that honda global survived in the recession times only and only because of hero honda sales in india (source economic times).
Mman both the companies are spoiling each other badly

An interesting find here...

I checked my ol ZMA manual and found out these interesting tid bits...

>The ol zma's length was 2125mm, the ZMR's is 2110( as per d brochure pix v got)

>the ol zma's width was 755mm as against the zmr's 805mm..think a 50mm bigger place to tuck ur legs in!

>the ol zma's height was 1160 as against this ones 1175mm

>the wheelbase of zma is 1355 compared to the ZMR's 1350mm.

I thought ZMR's wheelbase and length is greater than ZMA's. Thanks for the info
