I was planning to get one of these this new year. Almost made up my mind, but left the idea because of sudden budget problem .

Fell in love with R15, It was great for my height (5ft`4inch), it was super light, nimble and not to forget, its THE best handling bikes i have ever ridden.

ZMR looks outstanding in white, my friend has a White ZMR, love the attention u get when ur aboard the white ZMR. Handling was good too, but cant compare with R15. But where ZMR really wins is the torquey feel, man u will just love the torque and that awesome riding position.


If i had gone for one then it would have been R15. Superb handling, great looks and i just loved the way she revs .

Default for 5'10" or above

if u r on the heavier side and count urself in taller than average.then i would suggest zmr is way to go,as it will feel more comfortable.
it's not like that u will not be fit in R15.one of my frnd.6'2" and way too big (we call him khali ) rides a R15.but i m talking about my exp. i m almost 6 n in traffics it's not cool if u r stuck in there of even 1/2 an hour.
but if u like sprint..r15 is the way to go.
just because of it's tininess i went for p220.
u get a better deal in zmr than r15.

So Buddy, Did you take a test ride? Do let me know whatever you decide. And do take a test ride of ZMR and not ZMA for proper judgement. I mean just in case they don have ZMR, they might ask you to ride ZMA for that matter! IMO R15 is your machine but if you are considering touring, you cant beat ZMA/ZMR a champ in its own right.
