If you are hellbent and specific on color, you have to wait. If you feel, black is also good and want to grab the bike soon and enjoy, just go for the black.

and regarding the oil , it was not even showing its mark on dip stick

..

u can imagine how much low oil there was in engine.....today im writing to HH vasant kunj for further action.

i must have thrashed the guy badly who played with my 1 lac machine....it isnt a joke...........he could even added water in place of oil

....

imm very much irritated after this........

Anmol bhai you had every reason to thrash him!! why didnt you?! next time please do that.. Otherwise these bozos wont understand.

the head of fort point told me tht zmr waithing is 8 months

....& for now we have stooped the bookings
i told tht i was given a assurance of 2 months !
den they told that u'll get the bike in feb2010

......i told tht i booked 1 1/2 months back...n all...

he told if any next zmr comes it will be ur

& the der was no zmr in showroom ......he told me tht the showroom bike was delivered

i saw the register outside the showroom with watchman & only 3 bikes wer delivered till now

m really sad now due to the waiting period & sumwat crying for the zmr

Manan: You are too impatient to get the zmr aint you. All I can say is just wait. Control. Its worth the wait.

**myg124** · 11-26-2009, 06:27 PM

ZMRs erratic delivery

Given that now we know that bookings have stopped indeed at various places in the country, doesnt anyone feel there CAN be a bigger problem than just manufacturing or something?? My guess can be as good as anyones but am suspecting something. It cant be but we never know.. The Honda strike now shifted base to the Hero Hondas?? hahaha. Honda India seems plagued!

I just hope & pray all the problems end and all the showrooms start getting a regular stock and supply of the ZMRs and other bikes. This is really getting agonising, and I can understand all the prospective buyers position.

Im not that hellbent on colour...And in any case, black is my favourite colour and i liked d ZMR Black as well...
I wanted white because i thought it was the most eyecatchy one..!! Me bein a collegekid with juz few months remainin wud love to get some attention na..??

But considering all these mounting issues, im getting a bit scared if the bike wont get delivered any soon... The bike s being manufactured in pune or somethin right.?? If the showroom ppl over there's sayin it ll take 8 months and stuff then im gettin a bit scared about waiting for the second lot far across here in d south..!! Thats y i asked for opinions...

Woah Is this genuine 4 sure.. Well since he will be taking a 10k extra that would total up the amount to 1.16, So at this amount he will be doing all the paper work na like insurance, octroi, taxes, registration etc.. etc..

Now since bookings have been stopped in various parts of the country i only fear that the should be no fault or defect in the bikes that have been already delievered

**kaemakazi** · 11-26-2009, 07:06 PM

I too have booked my zmr 15 days back ..manan if they tellin u 4 months then guess ill have to wait 8 months...

..what is the delay all abt...why did the launch it in the first place......

.they could have delayed the launch rather give hundreds of prospective buyers 4 months of pain...

..

**gautamsankar** · 11-26-2009, 07:29 PM

Guyss...
I just called the Regional Hero Honda Officer and registered my dissatisfaction and told him about the customers gettin increasingly annoyed..
He told all the strike and stuff got resolved last week, but dont know when the delivery will start. But said once it starts then more bikes will come and get delivered soon..!! Maybe some good news after all..

But dunno how much reliable those words are... These ppl always say this and that... Lame xcuses..!!

If your answer to the above question is yes then please give me that guys number

Now since bookings have been stopped in various parts of the country i only fear that the should be no fault or defect in the bikes that have been already delievered

I doubt but cant rule out the possibility, but not sure at the same time

Its a wait and watch period. Personally, I would prefer buying any new vehicle atleast 6-8 months from its release. It helps as I have learnt from experience.

hey rahul here..
have you found any cons in the zmr since your date of purchase.. since you own one currently and as i am a prospective buyer.. i personally feel that you are the best person who can give me non bias feedback
