  • Karizma trouble

    Hi, friends .
    I own a 3 year old Karizma R. I had a lot of expectations with the bike before buying it but it does not live up to my expectations. I am putting this query in front of you guys to know whether the problems i face is bike specific, or everyone has faced it, or is it my riding style?

    1. I feel the bike is not comfortable for rides more than 15KM.(I am 5ft11inches tall, 80KG weight and 28 years old).The seat n the bike is big enough for 2 but the person driving it has to sit very near the tank and a lot of space will be left behind him, I feel the seat on CBZ is better positioned(from the look, i have not driven CBZ).

    2. I am not very happy with the handling too. The bike does not inspire confidence in me while cornering. The flick ability is also not very good.

    So the question is - Is it my driving style or is it bike specific or other people have also noticed it.

    Note: Before buying Karizma (2009 model) i had CD Dawn (2003-2006) and i feel the bike was a better handler than Karizma.

    thanks.
