This is common in all hero bikes when new.By the way nice photos and after split hero's color quality is much better than before, bike looks better than other ZMR.Yes Veedol super swift is a semi synthetic oil and is of 10W 40 grade and is API SM AND JASO MA 2 compliant.It is a semi synthetic oil but performs like a synthetic oil and i have used it till 5k in my joy and still oil hasn't got bad.I can proudly say it is the best oil that i have used and that includes SHELL ADVANCE ULTRA 10W 40 which is a fully synthetic oil but still i found Veedol super swift to be better considering the price.Swift as a substitute for AX7, man, it is the opposite as AX7 is the substitute of swift. It is the best oil and go for it with eyes closed. Trust me totally, you will not shift to any other oil.Moreover it is easier to get in kolkatta as its head office is in Rajendra sarani marg.
    Thanks for the feedback i will go for Veedol super Swift from next service.. Any kind of special care that I need to consider while changing from AX7 to super swift?? if any please state..

    I never noticed that you are a Bengali too, @antan_shank !
    If I'm not wrong, @sibun and @Pinaki are Bengalis too, right? That makes quite a few active Bengalis in this forum! Makes me feel proud! :P

      No, its a 1:12. Top speed was limited to 112 kmph by me, else it could do ~300 all the time.

        Hello everyone, I got my Hero Karizma ZMR on 06th Jan I've clocked 330 kms. Should I go in for an oil change now, and then another oil change at the time of first service? If yes, please suggest.

        P.S Sorry for the interruption.

            Yes, that's the best thing to do, to get the initial debris out.
            I did my first oil change at ~250 km, with the Hero oil at the SVC. Then I had to change again to the same oil as part of the first servicing, and then drained it, and filled up with Shell Advance AX7

            I'll skip oil change on my second servicing and change with AX7 at home again.

            BTW, why are you sorry, and who and what did you interrupt? :O

                  Congrates man!!! I used stock HH engine oil till 10K KMs and then changed to AX7 and still continuing with it... AFAIK Semi synthetic engine oil should be used after completing 5K KMs, please correct me if I am going wrong somewhere.

                  Enjoy riding!!!

                      Yes, @antan_shank, I've also read that using SS oils before 5k Km can be harmful for the engine, but @psr sir had assured me that he had tried the similar Rimula on new ZMRs and they are giving good performance and fuel economy.

                      Refer to this post: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/motorcyc...ml#post1016008
                      and this post: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/motorcyc...ml#post1016874

                      I'm no expert of engine oils, and simply went with the suggestions of more experienced and expert members (along with some online research of my own)

                        True I agree if PSR sir is certifying then it should be okk.. But when I was new with my ZMR and also to xbhp.com Satyajit da from kolkata suggested me not use SS be 5K and FS before 10K.. Hence when I crossed 10K I switched to AX7 and since then I am so satisfied with the quality and price of it I never ever though of going for FS Get my point??

                        Now it's your personal choice to opt for what!! I just went with my instinct... and happy with it..

                          i currently own a KARIZMA-R and i just love my bike,however i recently came across K&N filters.i just wanted to know more about RC 1100 and RC1600.
                          i love the stock one!!!however a friend of mine suggested these filter kits as he has installed them in his PULSAR 220.

                          Any suggestion will b appreciated

                          thank you.

                            I had used Shell Rimula R4 in a new ZMA bike with 400 Kms on odo , and the bike settled down very well . It has good acceleration and FE , and owner is happy ...bike had completed 3 K + Kms and still runs on Rimula . But I do not encourage others to do the same...
                            The Karizma is made with close tolerance parts with good material, hence can handle a lot of abuse without much complaint...A little care and ZMA will serve it's owners very well.
                            So do not worry about using SS in new ZMA ...
                            When Was The Last Time,You Did Something For The First Time.
