Is 55/60w is not an overkill ? Our wiring harness and battery is for 35/35w right ?

Not at all. The total load that the alternator can take is ~240W. You still have 40 odd watts to play with if you have the stock setup.
To ensure less load after upgrading to 55w lamps, get yourself low wattage LED pilot bulbs. Default pilot lamps are 5W each IIRC. Same for number plate light. Replace them all with 3W LEDs.

True totally agree with Divya!! I am using the 55-60W for more than 1 year crossed 1 and 1/2 yr also got 20SDM LEDs back then... Ordered the projector LED that Divya pointed few posts back...

can you get me the Source buddy??

zigwheels

Not much of a surprise because the US market is quite saturated and bikers there are more into custom-made V-twins. So, India is the obvious market, but the catch here is - about 95% 2-wheeler enthusiasts in this part of the world will never cross the 2 lac redline.

Re: Hero Honda Karizma ZMR

oops...you missed the details Divya. There's no screw driver in the set, so the drill has to be used every time. Remember, rreneav has extra sensory power that lets him sniff drill beads from a mile away. Careful. ....oh, one more thing, there's no plug point anywhere outside his house....

Re: Hero Honda Karizma ZMR

As per 2013 MSDS of Shell Rimula R4 the calcium Alkeryl is now low and in R3x it had been introduced...so it is better to use recent batch of R3x at 260/- than R4 at 310/-.. I am using the older R3x for the past1,700 Kms and the oil is still behaving and looking good..

Whitish yellow.

Low beam is yellow. High is whitish yellow to be precise.

The below pic shows low beam (taken before I carried out the angel eye + projector pilot mods). Clicked by @snehithpereira

Can we fit 90-100 tires @ the front? Have people fitted? If yes, what are the results?

Stock is 80 and I see some space left so 90 may be fit. Not sure about 100 though.
