it doesnt need frquent cleaning, at regular servicing it is done, however if one is keen to clean it urself then clean with mild pressure water and clean in same way as we clean AC's Outdoor unit.

I gave to my friend when i had completed about 300 km.. Just for a small test ride in mysore road(near my college - RV College) Bastard took it to 115 !!! The max i've done is about 80... in a drag with a fellow classmate on a pulsar..Originally posted by Prithvi!! View Post@Crazy NJ
Hi dude.
I stay in JP Nagar and have a black one, though i have met another ZMR owner (white one)
@Abhishek...
Good to meet you here man, where do you stay. Lets catch up sometime.
I stuck to 50 (3rpm 5th gear max until the first service.. and did all kinds of ride like traffice, night and non traffic... for steady running in bangalore i have made use of the E-City flyover very much
After first service gradually i am moving on to higher speeds (like i started with 55- 60 band and nw doing in 60 - 65 band, occasionally touching 80 for few seconds. Max i have done is 90 with Riyaz
.

I am very much Happy with my ZMR....its definitely a value for money...riding position is comfortable....handling is light..trusty engine with Honda Fi unit....and quality of each and every part is really superb....Originally posted by abhichotu.abhi View Post@ALL ZMR owners
"Are you happy with spending 90K+ on this vehicle, I mean does it worth spending this much money on ZMR??"
Please donot answer this question as a ZMR lover Instead answer it as a true rider.

spending 97000 on yamaha r15 that is 150cc bike and is not a tourer bike so spending 91k on a tourer bike with 225 cc engine makes good senseOriginally posted by abhichotu.abhi View Post@ALL ZMR owners

manan, i am using HH product for last 14 years, I can say Maruti & HH are ideal manufactureres in their own segment on which the service of others is callibirated. I fully agree to it, they are the best service providers in India in Bikes segment( and don;t forget largest bike manufacturer in the world ) . Your's a very rare case, i have already mentioned it earlier. I have used products from kinetic, TVS, Bajaj and I still feel HH is the best. Very Low maintainence required, if maintained regularlyOriginally posted by manan View Postyes
it value for money !
& i think price tag of 1lac 6k is ok for zmr
only 1 thing i dont like is the service of hero hondaLast edited by neo88; 03-23-2010, 09:48 PM.Dream the impossible because dreams do come true !

Now, as i had got alot of good feedback from you guys then, the next time most probably it will be ZMR(power upgrade) i will be buying. Currently i own P180 UG4.
But, still i think it has lack of punch\power, only 17.7ps is a little on lower side as my 180 too extracts the same power, although reliability is not concern for me as i like sane riding and strict maintenance.

While riding i do not feel that 17.6 BHP is less according to 225 CC engine...it is very fast...there is not very high difference in high speed as compared to other bikes ...Originally posted by abhichotu.abhi View PostBut, still i think it has lack of punch\power, only 17.7ps is a little on lower side as my 180 too extracts the same power, although reliability is not concern for me as i like sane riding and strict maintenance.

The ZMR is new, and how good it is, is best told by a owner, and not who is using any other bike.Originally posted by anhil8tr View PostBang on, quite a thread u've chosen to ask this question

My Dream Karizma:
Current Karizma with the following features:- Fuel Injected 223cc engine with a power around 18.5-19 bhp, that goes 0-60 in 4 sec and 0-100 in around 12.5 to 13 seconds. Current top speed of 126 is enough.
- Gas Reservoir shocks.
- Digital console (no problem with the current analog console too).
- Clip-on handle bars.
- Better panel mounts design. Wires should be consealed.
- Twin horns.
- 55/60w headlight.
- Weight should not cross 150 kgs.
The current price is very much fine.

Honda Aviator || Kinetic Flyte || Kinetic Blaze || HH Splendor

no doubt about that brother, but just one question to you though "does using another bike disqualify me from evaluating the bad points of a bike?" Jus think bout itOriginally posted by ravi@17bhp View PostThe ZMR is new, and how good it is, is best told by a owner, and not who is using any other bike.
I know its a good bike but it ain't perfect or is it? Or atleast i don't think so.
All i meant was he's bound to get a biased view here, u only tell me isn't it quite obvious by the replies to his query?respect ma authoritae!!
