If I give them the old one won't they make one or do we have to give specific measurements? And what grade/thickness metal to be used ?

I just gave him the original one,they are smart enough to fabricate.he salvaged the tab from original one.Also he had just tack welded few places I did a trial fit today and will hand over for complete welding tomorrow.
Will post pics once I fit the battery.
Regarding gauge I will let u know the thickness tomorrow.

I know guys who have upgraded to a higher amp battery on the stock battery housing by modifying it. Since you are fabricating the housing from scratch, may be it is a good idea to go for measurement to accommodate higher amp battery?

But then the fiber side panel won't fit...

I think, the battery holding steel plate/bracket needs to protrude out, to accommodate bigger battery. Saw it somewhere on net too.

Battery thickness is not a problem. But the clamp which holds the battery in place needs to protrude out, to accommodate it. I have seen people done it but don’t have any photos.

I think yes, but the battery should be connected.

I have 9ah amaron battery on my Karizma.
But I wanted to keep this stock.Anyways you need to only bend the front clamp to accommodate the 9ah battery.

Karizma R mileage

Hello guys I bought a used 2012 model karizma r which clocked 27000kms now. It returns a mileage around 45-50kmpl without pillion in highways and a very low mileage around 30kmpl in average traffic. I usually upshift at 3000 rpm in traffic and at 4000 rpm at Highways. Any ways to increase city mileage?

Here is the link to their site..

bad idea ,most if not all parts sold by them are aftermarket , dont rely on them for mechanical parts even if it says oe in the website, im talking from my personal experience , but they have body parts (plastic/fiber) which are aftermarket for discontinued bikes like cbz and they do deliver the parts in one piece excellent packing using bubble wrap and cardboard boxes

PS: if you need oe hero stuff try this : - The Spares Company - Where Genuine Is Real

if wrong product delivered you have to return back yourself.
and you need to have a very strong reason
for a return,else they wont take it back
else like other e commerce
no cash on delivery available

i know many persons who tried
some suceeded some failed
but the ratio of person suceeded is high

i think that it depends on what you are ordering
if its an uncommon thing
you are at risk
and if its a bit common
you would get it.

theres a new company
thesparescompany.com
which launched recently
which is yet to be tested in my knowledge

safex is run by thugs, i know that from personal experience quite difficult to get refund , also they dont stock oe even if it may show oein their site and damnbuggers are using my kb100s pics that i uploaded here
http://www.thesparescompany.com/amfi...%3Bamp%253Bp=2 it works ordered carburettor parts via cod , and they delivered it all oe stuff they actually called me to confirm the order

Hello guys I have a bought a 2012 make used zma which has clocked 27000 on odo. It returns around 45-50 kmpl in highways and around 30 in average traffic or short rides.. I usually upshift gears in 3000 rpm at traffic/ short rides and at 4000 rpm on highways. What could be the reason for such low mileage in city?

Re: Karizma/Karizma R Ownership Experience

Finally the easier part is done. I had misplaced my glue gun and was too lazy to look for it. It turned up in my electrical bin !! Have to take a better look in daylight to check for gaps.
The installation will be in about a month's time. When my RX comes out of the workshop, the ZMA goes in.

too much usage of clutch decreases average
could be in your case
there cant be any other reason
