    Its surprising that the hardware store has this, but the spares of the showroom dont carry it with them and also dont have an answer on when they will have it.

                • ZMRs in City of Joy !!!

                  It seems that ZMR owners are too busy riding their brainy beasts.
                  Hence no posts.

                  But how many people are there waiting for the BEASTS even after booking it? Have a word of suggestion to them.

                  Come and take it from this CITY of JOY.

                  I have not booked it yet but will book & get it delivered in the next week for sure .

                  Had a talk with my chosen Dealer today. Five WHITEs are waiting there. Four came yesterday.

                  Keep smiling and envying xBhpians........
                  34567 kms and ZMR sold :(

                      CRAZY brother,

                      Tough to precisely answer that but depends on choice of Dealers.

                      Will book tomorrow being a good day. In fact some XBhpians are aware of this too. If cash is taken then they will deliver it then & there. But will pay him in Cheques tomorrow itself after choosing among FIVE whites.

                      Expected to get it delivered on Wednesday after all the formalities.

                      But however it is a fact that no one in India should wait more than a month to get it delivered unless for a particular colour. Bikes are coming thick and fast @ least in Kolkata. I am following the trend since end MAR-2010.

                      Since I planned for a BLACK earlier & subsequently enquired it I have already received three calls from other Dealers for the availability. Moreover they are willing to deliver it to people who are giving upfront payment.

                          yes you are right and its just because zmr in Bombay is overbooked.....and there are many dealers in mumbai so each dealer is getting only 2 bikes every month.....but if u try 2 get it frm Kalyan(AHER Auto) then mostly the waiting period is less

                            Vishal,

                            Yes you are correct. Probably you guys have Demand > Supply. Hence this issue. Another point is people in MUMBAI are more willing for upfront payment option.

                            Here people are not willing to pay ONE lac for a bike. Mostly on loans for Road Romeos and invariably they do not pay the EMIs. This is the reason we cannot purchase SBKs also.

                            Similarly for HELMETS I am facing the same issue. You cannot have SPARX, LS2, VEGA, AGV etc. for Rs 2500/- or more budget. Case is similar for MICHELIN or PIRELLI tires also.
                            We are also nearer to CHINA and hence

                            End result: Persons willing to go extra mile suffers.

                              yes you are right...........and if you are ready to give the premium of Rs 25000-30000 then you will get the bike within 4-5days......ultimately the person who is waiting for the bike from so long suffers because of this.

                                people thinking of booking ZMR should book from small cities......like kolkata :P

                                Anyway...I have completed 225 km in 2 days and feeling is good when all stops and watch my ZMR..HE HE
