  • Hey Guys today I faced a serious problem with my ZMR... When I switched on the ignition, FI malfunction indicator light started blinking with a strange khat-khat noise... I went to nearest SVC (first time on that one) and they said it was battery problem... I seriously doubt that... As it was night, I had to leave bike there... I've uploaded a video.. Plz watch it and suggest.. And can ZMR's battery be dead all of a sudden without any warning signs or whatsoever...

    MY friend had a crash on his ZMR few days back,he is fine,replaced the right side fairings,Now the problem is when ever he rev it between 4000-6000rpm,there is a vibration,on checking it with svc,the mech said its the sensor(One used for turning the engine off during falls) making the sound ad is common in all ZMR's! IS that true? I dont even heard of it! What you guys say? Will it be solved after replacing the sensor? How much does it cost's?
    I used to have a noisy sound (not vibration) near display console of my bike... SVC guy claimed it was normal and is due to bank angle sensor... I think HMC people have found a common boy to blame for all vibration/noise problems...

      Even I've been facing the same problem for the past one year, and every service I mention it to them. Once they even changed the sensor under warranty but later changed it back saying that there was no improvement. I thought it was just me but looks like it's a common problem.

        Fi lights only blinks if there is any issue with the censors...

          I think paint can be claim from HM..it should be under warranty......what all ZMR owner say!
          Yes it can be claimed under warrenty , but i think they refuse it as he got it scratched too.

          Using 55/60 watt halogen since 7 months no problem here .

          Watched the video but unable to count the number of blinks . If you can then count the no. of blinks & posts , if they are 29 then there is IACV short circuit , if 54 then bank angle sensor is faulty .

              Thanks for the reply guys,So we had tried refitting,but no use! Will replacing it solves the problem? What is its price?

                I didn't knew it previously otherwise I would have counted... But It seemed like it was going forever (not stopping).... They should provide this kind of information in service manual itself...

                Finally changed the battery with a new one and everything is fine now... Hope it remains this way... But I was so surprised to know that battery could go dead without any warnings... I was riding happily and stopped for 50 secs or less and this prob occurred... Also never had to crank twice ever...

                • Buddy, how do you know this?

                  Do you have the service manual with you. If yes, can you share with us.

                  • ZMR Horns

                    Friends,
                    This Thread & Forum is an interesting place!!!

                    Suddenly you miss for two days and lot of happenings take place.

                    1. Mzee had a crash
                    2. Fast_Ferocious needs a Bulb
                    3. Friend of Aneesh has a noise
                    4. Luvurbike had a Battery issue
                    5. Goldy has shared an interesting Tip

                    Nearing my Two Year Ownership of ZMR clocked 24000 Kms but what I have gathered till now are -

                    1. You can write a BOOK on Vibrations
                    2. You can write an ALMANAC on Service Centres
                    3. You can write a DICTIONARY of Impromptu Issues on ZMR
                    4. You can write an ENCYCLOPEDIA on the Knowledge and Friendship of ZMRians

                    Now here goes my query on Horns?


                    Anyone can upload the Pics of a changed Stock Horn and all the numerical ratings mentioned.


                    Since one has gone kaput planning to change to BOSCH or ROOTS or MINDA



                    May be these links could be useful
                    Bosch - Horns
                    Roots Auto Products Private Limited - Products
                    NK MINDA GROUP
                    34567 kms and ZMR sold :(

                          I think the stock horns are rated at 2.5Amp.

                          Since one has gone kaput planning to change to BOSCH or ROOTS or MINDA
                          Roots Windtone,Cost:540rs,loud enough
                          Bosch Symphony,same as Roots,a little sound difference.

                          Roots Windtone is 5 Amp.Nothing to worry,you have to use a relay with it.

                            also the amount of money you will put in to change all the parts, it would be cheaper to get it repainted in same or some other color
                            i was considering getting it re-painted completely but i couldn't find stickers anywhere in gurgaon... not even in karol bagh...

                            re-painting was way much cheaper than getting insurance claimed (4000 bucks)... i am still looking for stickers... if anyone can help me with the stickers thing... i will get my bike re-painted asap!!!!

                            umm... warranty is for one year i guess... it's been 1 year n 7 months for my ZMR... bought her back in Aug 2010... so i dont think that will work either... if anyone has done that then they can tell me... i can go to a different SVC this time....
                            PEACE!!!!\/
