    Can we know the details about the kit instsalled and also the price.

    It would be great if you let us know the installation procedure with pics(if you have).

    thanx.

          Heat is not absorbed by the stream of air flow (lack of speed) and hence gets transferred to near by area's that's the fairing and the tank.

          Oil cooler is probably in-effecient to manage that amount of heat generated at lower gears and at slow speeds. ( This is a tourer bike and this must have not been thought of by HH, OHHHH ! Is that so ???)

          That day I faced problem with fairing but I do face problem of heating up of tank as well.

          Riding at low gears may be a cause of heat generation. But I am much worried about month of may, june when the mercury will touch 43.

          Well this weekend I'll not able to go to service center as I m out of station.
          But after coming back I'll definitely go to service center and also go on a high way ride to make sure that problem was due to low gears.

            12 KM from Noida to Kotla stadium.... ..in which sector do you stay..

            Well it was so much hot that my friend on his bike next to me can feel the heat.

            I live in Sector 26 and 12 kms may not be an exact figure. I didn't took readings from my trip meter. But definitely its not that far that bike will heat up so much .

              • Had a visit to the showroom. Again getting the same old reply from the sales executive. So approached to the manager. Acc to him this id because of huge demand of this bike in the North Indian region. Demand is much more than the production of the bike.

                Is that so? I dont think so. Even in the South we have a good demand. All lame answers from the showroom

                Anyone from Hyderabad, if you have any idea of showrooms which have good deliveries of this bike, plz let me know. I'll be grateful to you.

                    • hey guys.. what exactly is the problem at HH. After zmr ruling the bookings in comparison to any other bike why is the supply not meeting the demand. Its all its almost 6-7 months since the bike has been launched..To add fuel to fire HH doesn't even have the spares ready for the bike damn..Its all in the air that there is something wrong (technically) with the bike.. Thus leading to no mass production. Now iv been hearing a lot about the heating issue.. I don't own 1 so i really cant comment about it.. but if the bikes engine is heating up, the heat is being passed on to the tank as there is lack of ventilation...and in this case i predict that the petrol that is stored in the tank might get evaporated as it is a spirit..!! and mind you guys its just march now whats gonna happen when we hit may..??

                      • ^^^

                        i think zmr shud have been liquid cooled instead of oil cooling, it is not doing its job......

                        one more point im noting which makes me feel suspicious 'bout zmr is that not even a single ad of zmr is on tv during ipl whereas zma-r hrithik mud on face ad is being telecasted during ipl match.

                              Hey all !!

                              I got my new karizma recently... Extremely happy with the bike... Its really gorgeous and performs well too...

                              I'm having one small problem though... After riding for say 15-20 km the flaring heats up.. so does the fuel tank.. any idea why ??

                              one of my friends said that this could be attributed to a defective fuel pump... can any one please shed some light on this..
