  • @pabi..I maybe wrong but if its a used Karizma chances are the bike must be ripped a lot.Apart from handling issues and panel problems..i suggest u get the engine thoroughly checked i.e timing chain, cam tensioner and piston issues if any (check for white smoke from the silencer).

      bike will be around 35K-40K km old, 2005/2006/2007 models.
      All as advise by fellos + dont forget to ride the bike at spped of 70 to 90 and leave hands if it vibrates the handle bar then better leave the business as rectifing this issue will take lot of time and money and this is utmost common problem in used bike and check the disc brake through main stand and run tyre by ur hand both sides as disc plate and disc itself cost close to 11k

            Actually what do you mean by disc and how does it differ from disc plate?

                      go in for zma. panel cracking does happen, but only if yu are riding on bad roads.. excellent bike. may be you can go for zmr.

                        go fro zma.......panels don't get cracked so easily. it happens only when u drive in severely bad conditions.

                        TD both and see the difference.

                            • Guys,
                              Need some help here. I have a Osram Silverstar in my zma. Along with that I have an extra HH stock Horn with a relay. But when the headlight, tail lamp and break light are all in use and when I honk, the twin horns cry literally !!

                              Note that this happens more during low RPMs (Say in Traffic signals) inspite of the presence of the relay. What can be done to prevent this ?? I have the stock 7A battery. Please help !!

                                you are litteraly killing your battery with the kind of load in the electrical system!! i suggest that you change your battery to a higher amp rating.also note that the relay is a device which actually takes the load off from the switch thus preventing it from getting damaged
