Some of the unique experience of long distance travel by bike are:-

    1. You can travel on your own wish and enjoy the whole journey. None can come close as you are open to nature.

    2. Bike riding brings out how fit you are. The more fitter you are the more you can ride.

    3. The looks on people face when riding with luggages and different number plates. Especially when i had stopped at hotels for lunch and park it among cars have to look at the faces of cars owners. Especially the look on their ladies companions as they think bikes are not meant to be ridden so long. Sometimes aunties and girls have asked me for how long distance i have come and have gone. Especially when girls ask me i like it.

    4. Love towards your bike increases the more number of long distance trips you do. Also the trust on your bikes increases.

    5. And this is for me as i never trust anyone driving and riding. Be it buses or cars or bikes. I always drive cars when i go with anyone and also ride bikes if i go with someone. Infact in last three to four years i have never been a pillion on bike or passenger in cars.
    well said mate..

    hmmm ya but am sure the difference would be negligible..

      Called up the dealer once again...asked me to wait until next week. Well, I'm trying to be optimistic, but might end up being realistic (settle with a Zapper Q 110/18 TT instead).

            After watching the videos on youtube, Now i found that both the 2014 karizma's looks are copied from EBR 1190RS.You can easily compare the same looking tail light section and front faring section both are same. And after watching EBR 1190RS i guess i start liking the desiEBR(new karizmas)also. But the coincedience is that the EBR 1190RS is also launching in mass production this year in america and is 1st american built superbike.And you feel proude after listening this that major financial backing to produce this bike in mass production in USA is done by our HERO MOTO CORP.........

              Hero financed them for the track and the commercial launching of a superbike. They tweaked the engine and shared their design in return.

                Not only Hero financed, but also they are now 49% owner of EBR as a result they are also a major decision maker in EBR. With this not only EBR entered superbike into america but also Hero as it is 49% owner. Expect to see the EBR 1190R in india soon. Moreover larger displacement bikes will soon filter into india through Hero.

                  hey guys,i just bought the new karizma zmr 2014 and i am trying to figure out the mileage of this bike but i am a little confused,the svc mechanic told me that he had filled 2.5 ltrs of petrol duriing the delievery and after that on the same day i filled up 13ltrs from a a petrol pump,now my fuel guage is showing half tank is remaining and i have clocked 275kms till now so that means 7.25ltr has given me 275kms that means i am getting an average of 37.9kms/ltr right?but the mechanic told me that 3ltrs is in reserve or something and it will not show on the fuel uage so fuel guage is showing only 12 ltr that means i am getting 45.9km/l ?guys can you plz clear out this confusion plzz...

                    Mate the way you are calculating your mileage is not correct. Please don't depend on the fuel meter for accurate readings,especially the digital ones, they are just for reference. Now that you've ridden 275 kms after your last full tank, again go to the same bunk and fill your tank full. Now divide the number of kms with the amount of fuel filled and you'll get almost accurate results. Always check your mileage through this method and donot depend upon reserve to reserve or your digital fuel indicator for accuracy.

                    Cheers!!

                      never believe them. they told me for my hunk, 2 liters has been filled, but it went through only 8KM. they are just Liers.
                      for calculating mileage as rightly said by segagt, reserve to reserve is the best method. between if you are getting more than 35KMpl now, it is a great mileage. it will improve much as the bike runs more.

                      Also plz share us the performance. iam intended to buy ZMR soon(in two weeks). it will be helpful.

                            I had massive plans for the same but HMC dealership turned on its promise to let me TR the bike outside city limits for a few hours (with their employee as pillion). All I could manage was a mere 3 km TR. This robbed me of all photo opportunities and a detailed report. Waiting for a noble soul to lend me his bike (2014 version) for half a day.

                                I guess there are 2 bikers on this thread with 2014 ZMR between their legs but they have not posted a single pic of their new bike, forget about a short review.
