    I spare them cos of R15, If I see a ZMR I would stop them and give this lecture to them too.
    hahahaha you are right bro but kya karein kameene dost karwa dete hai kabhi kabhi,

      If you remember i sent you a mail asking where you bought your zmr some time back . I have checked bikes at uppal and there were nearly 3 to 5 white zmr bikes . I thought of taking bike there but that finance guy with hero fincorp was a worst fellow , he did not even respond properly made me wait half an hour and spoke very rudely when i asked about finance details .

      Even though shri ram finance guys behave like rowdy sheaters ( my friends told me this ) there finance guy spoke very politely and offered me good advice .

      And malakpet people were worst of the lot when i went there for details and made me wait and instead of giving me details boys and girls in showroom were flirting and making jokes ,chatting and dint even bother to ask me any thing . I looked for some time and just took off from there they dint even care .
      @jatints , No accessories are provided it is only handling charge ( bring bike from factory to showroom charge) they call it accessories . It is complete rip off .

      Oh yes! now I remember... avoid finance, go for loan from some govt. bank. I have no idea about this buy frnd who bought a CBR250 told me this

        Get better seat covers with good grip.. that would solve the problem for few months till the grip wears off.. I find this issue on Hunk too.. but the seat cover plays a vital role..



        Where is Vishnu motors??
        i did get a very good and rugged seat cover the problem persists ,i guess it is because of the angle of the seat,i will show you when we meet..

          I face that problem of wrist pain when the pillion is my gf. The pain actually rubishes my old imaginations of riding with her on highways.... I just think of solo riding on highwys now :P else my family and friends sit back without giving any problem.

          About warranty, I need to check. If, its only and only with the battery... who cares

            Srikanth and Nishanth, you guys should have complained to Hero about the unresponsive showroom executives and the logistics charges. Last time I went to Bhanu Automobiles at Kukatpally and I got the same pathetic response from the executives. I asked the person there how many colors are there in ZMR and he replied that only two. I showed him about the 5 colors on Hero website on my mobile, and he started bluffing. I complained to Hero and I got a call in 2 hours. Seems like Hero is going the way of Honda.

            And Srikanth, white light is not good for vision. Yellow is the best light our eyes are comfortable with. If you want slightly white light, buy Osram Nightbraker Plus 55w H7 (costs a bomb around 1200).

              Yes Ravi anna, but It didn't strike me, I should have complained. And about the projector beam, I initially wanted it for the functionality, but somehow it grew on me. In that case, I will check the Osram Nightbraker Plus 55w H7. I am not getting time to visit that store in mehdipattnam you suggested, wanted few more things.

                Hadn't visited this thread for long time and was surprised to see all this. Ya i know no one has tested the new ZMR. Its because no is paid for it and its simple. Even here in xbhp if you look at the initial impression thread then there are no hero bikes posts. Ya we understand there are no test bikes but members who buy bikes, then those bike can be used for ridding and posting a review. And magazines and reviews the less said the better. If it is Hero and bajaj then i do not read the verdict, even the same with Hero and Honda as the verdict will be the same. I was reading he comparo between Passion xpro and Dream Yuga, while the passion x pro was better in performance and build quality still the verdict was you know. This has become a part of life when you own a Hero product. I do not depend on the reviews, instead i ride, see the quality and then decide. I do not care for anyone's review. When i bought Joy many were dissatisfied, 15 years and those many have changed 3-4 bikes but the Joy is still standing with rock solid stance. Similarly when i bought the extreme many said mileage is low and also bike looses performance and instead told me to go for pulsar or unicorn. 2.8 years and 40k kilometers, will put new 150 cc bikes to shame in performance. What does idiots do not know is that proper tappets settings, proper grade of oil and proper carb tuning makes the extreme fly. But those idiots will give to mechanics and he will do whatever he knows and the end result will be bike is not good. As i like to say:- " People love to hate Hero". When i go to mechanics place and they see the Joy they wonder is it some new bike looks like new. When they learn 15 year old bike they are amazed. Even when i take my extreme to my mechanics place and people say why bought this rather than pulsar and unicorn, then my mechanic says that ride this bike and after ripping it you will feel as if your bikes are not pulling. I am happy and thats what matter, you cannot make others happy. As they say" Yun to log kahenge, logon ka kaam he kehna".

                        Thank you very much for this. You must me surprised to hear this as you must be thinking how i didn't know this. Actually i knew this but in this query form old model bikes were not there. I had visited this site for a thousand times but no mention of old bikes.

                        Today out of curiosity clicked the link and was surprised to see Joy mentioned in the query form.Even old bikes like CBZ, CBZ *, ambition, CD 100 has also been back. Thanks to hero, as i think after Hero separated from Honda then have slowly included this old bikes in them. I have submitted my query in that form itself, with regards to spares.

                        Thanks to Hero as i think Hero is looking at its old customers, as it knows that his new customers are none but the same family members of old customers. My next bike will be Hero was what i was saying, but now i am confident my next bike will be Hero and no other company.

                        Thanks to Ravi and Hero.

                            Well. The best way to avoid this is by asking the pillion with a grin face to move back whenever you fall on me. Lol

                                [MENTION=11210]ravi@17bhp[/MENTION] , I gave a complaint last night . From morning onwards i received nearly 5 calls from different branches of lakshmi showroom . They have asked me to take the bike with out paying any handling charge ( 3k saved thanks to you ) .
                                And also got a call from hero corporate office i told him that showrooms were asking 3k to deliver the bike , he said that accessories charge was optional I have to pay only if I buy those accessories otherwise don't have to pay .


                                he said he will contact all showrooms in Hyderabad and find out why are they charging that amount . I also told him about the finance guys that were not providing full details regarding finance .

                                I am pleased by hero's response .
