    Replace the words "I have to" with "I choose to" and notice the difference in how you feel.

        This is solved after 2nd service. Also by then, owner gets used to it and easily gets the neutral.

        BTW people from hyderabad.. can u tell me which is the best showroom to get the bike... I'm mainly looking for reliable service...
        The thing is, you can buy the bike from ANY showroom across the country and get it serviced at ANY HH Service Center. So, buy the bike from the showroom where you are getting the colour of your choice and less waiting time. You can service it at any service center which is near your place. I service my bike at Prestige motors, Bahadurpura. Even today, my bike is gone for service there. However, I'm not cent percent satisfied with their service. Remember, there are very few service centers which handle ZMRs very well. I tried Mody motors at MG road, Secunderabad for my earlier service only to find out that they were horrible.

          I am buying a ZMR today from Mody Motors Secunderabad..

          Are you saying I shouldn't get it serviced here? Which place is good..

          The first service is really important right.. ?

            In the first service, all they do is change the engine oil, and check if everything works fine, and wash the bike. So, dont worry much about that.

                Though we can get it serviced from any showroom.. it would be better if you visit the same showroom where you had purchased it as you would have been in touch with some people and that might help you to solve the issues much better.. that is my personal opinion..

                I'm planning to get it from Bhanu automobiles in Erragadda.. its near to my place... Its listed on HH website and got couple of good reviews from people... and luckily they had a color of my choice with 1 day wait period...

                • Hi friends

                  I am planning to but a new ZMR, but many of my friends are stating to go for ZMA R mention some reasons like

                  The review of the vehicle is not good as ZMA R

                  It is generating a lot of heat because of fairing

                  The legs are getting heated up

                  Please suggest me with a valid option as once invested cant be taken back

                  • just done with paperwork ..

                    I just signed all the papers and stuff for my new yellow ZMR .. My hands were shaking, head throbbing, now I feel like I have a fever .. This is crazy, and now they said it will take 1 hr to give me the bike.. The wait is killing me.. I can't wait to get my hands on her.. This is my first bike, I am at work and I am not able to think about anything else ..

                    I probably need "help" ..

                        bro get zma r if you have limited budget. it is also a good bike.


                        regarding reviews it has the same engine as zma r only the technical difference is PGM-FI. both bikes are almost same.

                        yes it generates heat but it will vanish after 2nd service or after 2k kms.

                        you can feel the heat in your legs but it will too vanish after 2nd service.

                        u need not to worry its a good bike and is in market from almost 1.5 years. go for it. dont think twice ull never regret.

                        ps: all new buyers do not take much opinions from your friends and family coz ull get confused more and more.

                          one should change oil every 2000 KM after first service i.e at 1000 KM.

                                posting after a long long time.....

                                Oil supplied by HH sucks, i changed to Honda 20W ... something, the bikes running like heaven

                                Dont think 20W for a 10W engine, no international manufacturer gives oil specs to the bike, its only in india to increase the oil sales I guess, AFAIK the type of oil only effects the engine starting in cold conditions as we have FI we need not to bother....

                                I have done 1500kms with the honda oil the engine feel is just the same as the day i changed it..

                                the HH oil, after 700 sucks..
