    I recently completed the first service and I was told (by the Mech at the workshop) that the vibrations would be there uptil 1700 kms, after which the carb setting would be done and the bike would be a wee bit more smooth.

    Is that so?

    Veteran ZMA riders, kindly provide your valuable inputs..
    Are the vibrations coming from engine?? or any fairing parts? Try identifying. Karizma is vibration-free till 5000 rpm, after that a little bit of vibrations you can feel, and again it smoothens out at 6000 rpm.

    Also check at what rpm the bike is vibrating.

      The bike vibrates @ 3500 rpm and above while riding. The fairing vibrates a lot too..

      The bike starts vibrating above 3000 rpm at standstill.

      Could it be the carb setting?..or something else?

        For this, simply check all the screws of the fairing and also check for any sort of cracks...!!! There wont b any other reason for this issue...!!

                M45 4.00 X 18 rear and M62 3.00 X 18 front is perfect combo for CBZ so put the same combo on zma. But the ZMA's rear wheel rim is narrower then CBZ's! So this rounded the rear tire and kept the front tire flat. As the rear tires wants to lean and the front wants to stay upright! Din not feel the combo right.

                Changed the front tire to M45 3.00 X 18 and now its feels good, which seems to be inline with the rear tire now. But the m45 3.00 is 10k kms on. Its know for its uneven wear by the time its roled 10k kms. So need a new front tire.

                So tires have u guys tried for the front? other than the stock mrf ones.
                Also other options for rear tire?
                thanks

                            now it is time for a devil's advocate...

                            Do you know that it costs Rs 1500 to replace Karizma's disc pads?

                            Spares are very expensive!!!
