      If there is no air leak then its ok if you dont change the rim... wobble is also the second factor to be considered... if its not wobbling enough to create trouble or irritate then dont change the rim...

        But as you are scared about scratches , parking problem then go for any naked bike .

        Thank you for your inputs
        I guess i'll think about ZMA then, or considering the new bike launches in coming months, for example Pulsar 200NS to be launched under a lakh,
        makes sense to wait and watch
        Had Suzuki Shogun
        Have TVS Fiero F2

          Yes Pulsar 200NS is worth the wait.. at least the specs suggest so... wait for a month for actual usage review and then go for it... i feel it will be good VFM..

            • Bad day!

              Folks, anyone heard of an upgraded version of ZMR touching 180KMPH manufactured in November 2011. I guess its not true?

              BTW, had a bad first and hope the last crash today due to an idiot auto rickshaw driver who first took a sharp left and then again a sharp right and buzzed off! Damages expected above 4.5K as per the SVC folks.
              Ride till the road ends.

                ZMA's a big NO NO, cause judging by your query am assuming that you're a novice when it comes to the ZMA<>ZMR thingi, so it'd be best if you stick with the ZMR i.e if the difference in funds doesnt matter you.

                My Reason's.

                1. You dont want to be late for office/college on a cold day.

                2. ZMA needs to be taken care of like a baby, if you're expecting top performance. Reason is that in college there a ZMR which the owner uses to ride tripples along with all their luggage from KNPY to EKM and that too in the evenings to avoid cops which means they'd be riding at high speeds. And still when I've ridden the bike I felt it to be as good as any other ZMR I've ridden, where as my ZMA when once ridden by a friend with me as pillion, started to give hickups and acceleration lag due to his instant WOT riding style.

                3. And most important reason, It feels and looks UBER cool to ride a ZMR with a female pillion and for once the bystander's would stare at the bike rather than the pillion. (Just noticed this today while going out to get lunch.).

                    I believe he's referring to the Karizma 250R hype, which started soon after the release of CBR250R, and is claimed to have a feature called 'HEROS' which acts as a momentary boost replicating Nitrous.

                      right...

                      Although i had a word with one of a employee who works in "Minda" (all the lock set on bikes/scooter are developed by them)...he pass on the information about a new model of Karizma in this year....with higher Cc...but i cannot confirm the information....

                        If you see the timeline of HH , in 2003 Karizma is launched , in 2006 Karizma-R , in 2009 Karizma ZMR & now its 2012 . So maybe we will see another Karizmatic ruler
