    Karizma R With NOX Shocks

    I am soon getting a Karizma R and i dont like the rear shocks that much. I like the NOX shocks which come with the Pulsars or HH Hunk.. Is it possible to fit the HH hunk NOX shock to the karizma and keep the same height as it was with the original shocks?? Also, i like black shocks more then the red.. And i want to know if this mod is WORTH it and if the shocks will work exactly like they do in HH Hunk and wont be that much different.. I hope you understand my question... Thank You.

    Also, the bike is going to be BLACK. :

      You are complaining about ZMA's shocks? Trust me its very good.. Especially compared to Pulsar's .. If you still want to change, check out ZMR's shocks

        Well... i haven't sat in the back yet but i am a fan of NITRO shocks. so, but if people say they are good then i wont change.. what is everyone opinion ? Is it worth it to change to NITRO shocks from either a HH Hunk Or a pulsar???


        What m confused about is that ZMA shocks are regular and Pulsar's are Nitro. how are they as good pulsars??

            It would be big mistake to change it. Based on kind of roads u are travelling and your body weight adjust the shock - thats it. Its much better than pulsar ones on this department.

              Thats a genuine feedback from Pulsar owner - who has seen best and worst of a a ZMA - - fortunately mine

                First you get the bike, And use it for a while, And then you would finally know its good or not. The the stock shox are pretty good and do not require change.

                    Karizma R's shockers are amazing. I have used the stock shockers for around 50K kms and they score miles ahead as compared to Pulsar 220 DTSi 's brand new shockers.

                    As for fitting the Nitrox shockers in the likes of Hunk or ZMR, I dont see that the ZMA's plastic has that much space to accommodate the gas reservoir and also, in case if you plan to put it upside down in the likes of bullet, the performance would be any better.

                    In my opinion, stick to stock and enjoy the ride. as for the color being red in place of black, you may either use a black tape or remove the spring and get it coated with black paint.


                    all cheers

                        ZMAs shockups are the best mate, done 43K kms n going strong.
                        Check out ZMRs shocks, they are superb, i have both the bikes.

                        though sticking to stock is what i will suggest.

                              the price of the gas charged shocks are arnd Rs.2000 .


                              I dont know if they can be fitted in karizma or not & neither i hav rode a karizma for a long ride to tell u if their shocks are good or not. But I would suggest you to change the shocks after some 30000 kms. becoz changing the shocks is a waste of money now.
