Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

Please don't! For now. Production is halted and the dealers may push you some discounts as well. But better wait 6 months and get the fresh product that would hit the roads by then.

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

Friends,
I will plan to buy a Karizma ZMR for upcomming new year.So before going to take i need your feedback guys.

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

True, Karizma R/ZMR 2014 model has been discontinued since quite some time (obviously due to shamefully low sales numbers & mechanical issues)


Spares availability (especially body parts specific to 2014 model) are extremely tough to get. Other vital mechanical parts such as 2014 model Karizma rockers, camshaft, piston are too not available.

^^^Crashing is never in your hands, but with the right attitude you can keep delaying the inevitable.
Get well soon and be a better road user.

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

U must thank GOD for escaping from such horrible crash. Hope u r fine and will ride sensibly hereafter.

regarding bikes, it purely based on your convenience. ZMR is a practical bike and can handle daily commuting also. but at the end its purely based on which one u feel more comfortable.

Besides u never mentioned your plan with RS200 :P

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

Ok I got it I promise I wont ride like a hooligan . Secondly I made a decision I will ride Karizma on my weekend tours of 100-200 KM . Mainly from now I will ride my Hero Maestro scooter because during commuting I really get tired when I ride my Beast but in my Chota Beti (Scooter) I never feel tired . So guys I have a moment changing question:-

1. Should I ride my beast only on weekend tours of 100-200 km / can be sometimes be 300 KM - during EVERY -> Saturday or Sunday ?
2. Or should I ride my beast during the traffic / daily commuting .
3. I reaalllly love my chota beti because the scooter is the best during commuting - i can fit my college bags or helmet in the under-seat storage , no gearing just start and go , in kolkata we have now a days long line of traffic for that reason the scooter seems to be perfect , and during doing grocery shopping it can hold many bags .
4. I am really confused - Karizma for touring or for commuting ?
5. I am again confused - Maestro for commuting or sitting in garage(period) .

I love them both but please I need little suggestion . Secondly above all my car Maruti Celerio - kya bolu saab ka baap hain - no problem can go for commuting , touring , weekend ride , even can go to big baazar - BUT NO DRIVING LICENCE (4 wheeler)/I have 2 wheeler driving licence .

Guys , need suggestion ...

P.S - ( UNDERGOING TREATMENT FOR MY HUGE CRASH ON MY PULSAR RS200 ON DURGAPUR EXPRESSWAY , BIKE HAVE GONE FOR REPAIR , 76% RECOVERED - MY BODY - SORRY GOT MY LESSON - ZIG ZAG STYLE AND HIGH SPEED RIDING - SPEED WAS 142 KMPH - CRASH WITH A AUDI )..

----consecutive posts auto-merged-----

Thanks for your suggestion .

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

I know it's not about the time you are saving in zig zag but you like the adrenaline rush of doing it, but that not only creates trouble for others but also can be fatal for you especially if you are cutting past a heavy vehicle as you might have a wonder full disk brake system but these may not.

It's CARizma bro.. the sedan of bikes.. Treat it like one, feel it like one... start early and take a longer route with sparse traffic. Ride 5kmph lesser than speed you think you can handle. Hear a song or just humm it.. Live the ride, each second.
The extra miles you rode today will make you love your life and free you of all the tensions. Trust me, Karizma twins are made for this feel...

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

Not a good idea and everything you did is incorrect in my opinion.. Road Rage is never good.. What if those guys had a knife or gun?that too for hardy 200 odd rupees worth mirrors..

the Bar End mirrors are of no use.. they might look cool and stuff.. but trust me.. these mirrors will easily get hit in traffic and your maneuverability in traffic will take a huge hit.. get used to the stock mirrors.. instead of changing the mirrors, i would suggest you to change your riding style.. safer for you and for the other innocent people on the roads

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

Friend you can't use bar end mirror in new model bcoz front model disturb while turning

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

Nice, that you got the spark plug!

1. We do not support road rage. You were lucky to have things work in your favor this time.
2. Decide if you want form (looks) or function (usability).
3. Bar end mirrors would extend out as much as stock mirrors, hence not aiding much in B2B traffic.
4. Bar end mirrors won't provide a very good rearward visibility either.
5. How much time do you save by riding zig zag in traffic, cutting through bigger vehicles?

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

Does your birdie know if it's the same 20 hp mill or are there changes to that too?

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

The Version 2 ZMRs and ZMAs have niggles which are being corrected and after taking feedback from customers, Hero has made some changes to the bike.. They are going to launch the upgraded version of the Karizma twins next year..

the NEWS is from a reliable source...

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)

Well he also did not have it in stock .. All he had was one piece lying in some godown .. This was fortpoint Mumbai

Re: Hero Karizma ZMR (2014 version)


Actually, he is right.. all new ZMR/ZMA are ready for launch next year.. along with HX250R.. they have looked into all the niggles and fixed each and every issue the bike had.. and yes, they have stopped production of the bike
