Just saw the pics of the new ZMR. To me apart from the twin headlights, the bike looks ordinary. The sleek regal look is gone and it now looks a bit awkward. I don't know if I'd choose ZMR again for my next ride 😔

Re: Hero Honda Karizma ZMR
We have just seen the pics mate. wait for the bike to officially hit the roads and see it in flesh. AFAIK, the admins have mentioned that the bike looks stunning in flesh. if even in Flesh it looks bad, well.. too bad hero.. you are going to lose your stocksOriginally posted by sarkartheruler View PostJust saw the pics of the new ZMR.

Re: Hero Honda Karizma ZMR
Thanks a lot for the update. will get it doneOriginally posted by rreneav1987 View PostThere is no possible way for it to go kaput. Remove the brake switch. Open it amd clean it inside..
1. Make sure the button of the switch touches the brake lever and if it doesnt. Its time to replace the front brake lever.. you can also have a temporary jugaad.. use the insulation tape at the point of contact on the brake lever take it as thick as possible so that it presses the switch.. it worked for me till i removed the tape for some stupid reason..
2. If the above is fine, remove the brake switch, open it and clean the small terminals and ensure the button of the switch doesnt move up and down..
Attached pics..
If still the problem persists, then time to change the switch..
If the issue still persists.. time to chanfe the lever costs a matter of 40/- and the lever will cost you max 100/-
I initially fixed the switch, worked for few days.. but the button wears out which is the only reason you might have to change the complete switch for.. then i changes the switch, the issue started again after few months.. then had to replace the brake lever too along with the switch..
You can use the Karizma switch as well..

Re: regarding K&N Filters....
No it's not worth it. Still if you feel you need a filter then go for UNI foam type. K&N are simply shitty in quality. Dunno why people run behind that brand.Originally posted by NITIN SHARMA View PostHappy new year to all,
i want to install K&N filter in my ZMR so can you tell me which type of filter should be the best for my ZMR so that i can extract maximum output power from my ZMR, and how much increase in bhp can i get from K&N filters.....? are they worth.....??
thankyou ,

Guys got my bike today. Ignition coil was checked and injector was cleaned. They were fine. All electrical connections were verified in front of me. A bit of rust was accumulated in the fuel-filter which feeds the pump. Apart from that, everything was normal. Shall take the bike out for a spin and in traffic where the engine heats up to see if the problem still persists. If it occurs again then definitely it's the fuel pump.Last edited by abhi7013; 01-02-2014, 09:48 PM.ZMR- PGMFI re-defined

Re: regarding K&N Filters....
Stock filter is best. ANY after market filter would eventually kill the engine. Expect a 0.5 hp increase in hp at crank, not even at the wheel. Useless IMO.Originally posted by NITIN SHARMA View PostHappy new year to all,

Re: regarding K&N Filters....
someone is telling me that we get 2 to3 bhp increase in power and also an exceptionally good pickup and top speed too, because the injected fuel burns with more pressure of air due to K&N,and he also said me the change in sound is due to this reason that fuel burns with a blast.......................plzzz help i m confused now??????

Re: regarding K&N Filters....
what kinda blast did he mean?? a Bomb Blast?? Jokes apart.. coming back to the topic. It is of no use. you can get a maximum of 0.5bhp gain like Divya has mentioned and that too not at the wheels so you barely feel the difference unless your mind is playing a game..Originally posted by NITIN SHARMA View Postsomeone is telling me that we get 2 to3 bhp increase in power and also an exceptionally good pickup and top speed too, because the injected fuel burns with more pressure of air due to K&N,and he also said me the change in sound is due to this reason that fuel burns with a blast.......................plzzz help i m confused now??????
You can go ahead and do it if you still want to try. but again. you are taking a risk of ruining your bike. nothing is better than the stock filter.. If you are going to change the filter to KnN.. then please post your reviews and maybe by the time your bike completes 20,000 kms with the after market filter, you will have to change the Engine
Abhi used a After market air filter and after fitting the stock air filter back, he loves the bike more.. The Karizma and ZMR are never meant for harsh engine/sound.. they are loved for the smooth ride..
if you wanted more power.. why did you get the ZMR? you could have gone for the P220

Yup, if you plonk in a filter to a karizma, it would be like asking the gentle spidey to turn into a hulk and you end up with a not-so-cool setup! LOL! The bike looses all it's butter-smooth characteristics. If you wanted rough sound (read noise), you should have gone for a p220..ZMR- PGMFI re-defined

Re: regarding K&N Filters....
Well, filters other than stock do not filter the air properly as a result of which, dust enters your engine. After that, you do the thinking. There's no need to ask anyone in this. Kaizmas are known for gentle and smooth operations. Not like other bikes. Ride it in the mid-rpm ranges (80-90) and you will feel the bike glideOriginally posted by NITIN SHARMA View Postby the time i got zmr i have very little knowledge of bikes ,and after that i always wanted more from my bike but due to its suffocated engion at high rpms i think of using K&N filter ,Now as from your views i guess i have to ask that guy again.........

Re: Hero Honda Karizma ZMR
coneset costs 340 bucks...Originally posted by Divya Sharan View PostProlly, the cone set *might* need replacement. Though the handle stays stright at 35+ speeds, the handle makes noises and is not free. Seems like something is rolling within.
Is my assumption of a busted cone set correct? How much does it cost BTW?

Re: Hero Honda Karizma ZMR
Rode for about 40kms in city. 20kms one way. Bike was heated up but engine did not go off. Whatever the problem was, I guess it's vanished.
If it appears again then it definitely is da pump.
