        Only FOUR Dealers in and around Kolkata are taking a booking and delivering ZMRs.
        1. AMIT Motorcycles in Howrah
        2. AMIT Motorcycles in Prince Anwar Shah Road, Lake Gardens
        3. VINLINE Engineering in VIP Road, Baguiati
        4. BALAJI Motors in Diamond Harbour Road, Thakurpukur

        All are quoting around ONE and half months waiting period except the Sl. 4.
        They are delivering in a months time. But the BLACK colour has not arrived in the last two months. Even there is a sudden spurt in demand also. Normally in a month Dealers used to get 3-4 Bikes. The figure has gone up. Now it is around 10-15.
        Yup the colours i have seen being delivered are the white & red, also kolkata has quite a good number of red zmr's. My exam centre was in barasat, so i used to pass that hh showroom. all the best with your booking!
        when the strech is empty, my bike tells me to wring its throttle and give my commands!

          Awesome big bike feel and surely a head turner. Rode 50 kms today and answered many questions regarding price, average and some weird questions too. The funniest was have you modified your Karizma

          Just waiting to complete the first 1000 kms. Just one question guys, is it recommended to get the teflon coating done on the bike as I have got mixed responses about it so not too sure whether I should get it done or not.

          @acg_2308 - I got it from Shivang Automobiles. Where have you booked yours ?

          Some pics I took in the showroom from my phone.

          Congrats and your name has been added on Page 19 of ZMR ownership thread

            • last day visited shivang autos to ask for booking they told me delivery time is now 7 months ....

              reason they told me that some of the bike parts come from japan honda and the company only make 300 bikes per month and they have 27000 showrooms all over india ...so how can company should distribute this little number of bike all over india ...and in nasik every showrooms gets 2 bike for every 2 months..

              i thinks they are giving fake reasons ,,or may be company (hh) giving fake reasons to showrooms .... dont know what is it but theres something wrong ......

              for fast delevery i ask them to take 10 -15 k extra and give me bike in next month ...they refused and told me that 1 man came last day from bhivandi with 150 k cash and we refused him also ..so extra money cant do the work.....

              im going mad for white zmr ,,,im waiting from 3 months

                  they would not give on any extra money thats true..but 7 months is just way to high..call up HH and see or write to them

                    Hey dude, thanks a lot. I'll call you up in couple of days time. Currently jam packed with office work. Sorry about that. Pictures ... hmmm ... well to be frank I just have a 2 megapixel mobile camera which unfortunately does not comes out with quality stuff. Will try to get a new camera once I come out of the current financial turmoil - courtesy "my white pearl"

                    Thanks neo.

                    Hi all, well did 121 Km till date. I am having a few questions for fellow ZMR owners :

                    1. I am observing lot of vibration on the front fairing. I was not able to view objects clearly through the rear view mirror because of the vibration.
                    Question: Is this common across all the new ZMR's?

                    2. I am facing issues when I try to bring down the gear from 5th to let say 2nd. After bringing down the gear from 5th to 4th I have to release the clutch half way in order to realize the 3rd followed by 2nd gear. I never faced this sort of issues with my Unicorn.
                    Question: What do you say guys?

                    3. The HH service center people are the perfect examples of "morons". On the day of delivery (the bike arrived at the showroom from godown the day before) I noticed a kind of spill over marks just next to the petrol tank lid. I immediately raised the concern and showed my displeasure regarding the finish. This lead to the entry of so called "morons" (mechanics) into the scene. Two of them took turns in analyzing the issue. Then one of the "moron" immediately came up with an idea of applying some liquid polish with some other chemical. Next, the "moron(s)" took turn in polishing the area around the petrol tank lid. After working out for around 10 minutes the spill over marks finally faded out though visible if observed carefully. And surprise ... surprise the first gift from the HH service guys - A very neat scratch (around 2 inch long & couple of mm wide) ... clearly visible & prominent
                    I was like what the f**k man ... I paid 1.09 lakhs and these oxy morons are screwing it up.
                    Finally the sales guy intervened and assured me that the issue will be fixed by next day. Now today he is saying that I have to leave my bike for 2 days as the issue can be sorted out by the HH head office in Bangalore. However am planning to give my babe next Thursday.
                    Question : Are the condition of all HH Service Centers like this? Aren't there any well qualified people who can handle our vehicles with care?

                    And ahem ... ahem the biggest surprise of all. Today when I was at the showroom one of the "moron" from the top episode (on whom I felt like throwing rotten eggs) inquired - "Sir, how is the bike doing and what was the top speed that you touched?" I replied back saying the bike is awesome and I didn't dare to try more than 60 Km/h on the speedometer. I saw a big smile on the face of our "moron". He declared proudly - "I touched 145 Km/hrs when I brought one of the bikes from the godown to the showroom". I was like (speechless !!!)
                    I didn't dare to ask him more details because I literally felt like strangling the "moron"

                    May god help other ZMR owners from such "morons"

                        True manan ... HH service people sucks. They are least bothered about our vehicles even though we guys had shelled out more than 100 thousand rupees. I am very disappointed

                          dude you are lucky that your bike got only scratch, here in delhi the svc even didnt fill engine oil completely during service.

                          and also mechanics and worshop manager arent that courties also.

                                there are no vibrations from the front fairing...i dnt think they have done pdi for ur bike

                                depress clutch fully ...chck cluthc setting..oiling the clutch cable and gear gear lever could help too..

                                find out the service station in ur city which is certified to handle zmr.. and mechanics who got trained under HH for zmr...in mumbai fortpoint mahim and mahalaxmi are the ones certified
