nice pics and write-up sir.

bajaj answer will not come from p220fi.instead from NINJA 250R.Well that could mean some serious competition.

but i dont understand wat exactly HH want to achieve?
launch a bike that looks good,price it in the premium category give fuel injection but low power??17.6 bhp is a big let down. they should hav settled for 20+bhp.

cheers.

Negatives for me:

1. 35/35W headlamp
2. 6 amp battery
3. Top speed only 126 (not a problem if the 0-100 figure is anywhere between 12-13 sec; if not, I am really disappointed)

So, if your ZMR ends up showing only 125-128km/h, dont worry, it will be equivalent to around 135 as per the ZMA's speedometer
Ok for at speeds of 60...
Did you check for high speeds? Like 115+?

Wow...just one day of absence and I miss out on this fantastic launch news!

The ZMR looks way better than the earlier photos suggested. Forget the Top Speed and Acceleration; what will work out for this mutated ZMA will be its refinement and touring ability. The ZMA legacy carried forward!

Now who is buying this in the Pune circle?
