          I doubt on these figuers, can you guys put some light on it?
          My n most of the other ZMAs (if maintained well) givs an average of 30 kmpl in city n 40 kmpl on highways...

            • ^^I agree.

              @Deepakumar: Starin at the covered up integrated rear lamps, i'm sure i wont be wrong in sayin it will again be a signature statement for the Zma. Like in the old one.

                  • @Nirvan :- thanx bro but I reckon it has got some thing to do with the swing arm cause if i try and ride the bike leaving both my hands the front end seems stable, and the bikes sways from the rear end. in the eventuality of swing arm bush needing to be replaced how much do you think that would cost me?

                          Search this thread around 15 pages back. There are pics with demonstration how to fit. You will get all the details.

                              I have fixed a leg-guard to my karizma R without any modification to the under cowl or the fairing, though there is very little(about 5mm) gap between the leg-guard and the fairing.

                              Got the guard from Karol bagh (Anand Accessories,1661/34), delhi and cost me rs 350 excluding fixing charges.
                              Life without liberty is like a body without spirit.
