      Old Karizma spec is 20 W 40..and engine feels very smooth with 20 W 40. It will also reduce engine heating.

        that tak sound is ok. It is there for every bike while riding fast through potholed roads.

          Im from Kollam, Kerala and have booked the bike from Diya Motors... They've said the bike'll be available in 3.5-4 months.....
          The funny thing is.... When i went there for the first time, i saw a white piece but later on found out that it was already booked...they said they'd provide me with the piece if the booking gets cancelled.... i said the foll. to my dad and he laughed and said that it was all a business tactic.... and KABOOM!!! the next day got a call from them saying that the booking was cancelled.... anyways dad said to opt for the next batch after waiting period.. who knows it might even be a test piece....

            OK,Thanks bro,Thanks for your help

                      The P8 hid bulb as such is compatible but some different wiring is required. i too did'nt understand this clearly. What i think the diff is that in cars when u pull the highbeam pass switch only high beam comes on but in Karizma r the pass switch gives both high and low together.

                      And other drawback i see is the hid light although very bright does'nt switch on at full brightness immediately like halogen, and during this period it takes a lot of current like 20A after which it settles to steady 3.5A. Not good if you ride your bike once in a while.

                      I have question for people who have 55/60W halogens which i am going to fit soon. When u press the pass switch both low and high on together totalling 115W , does this effect in any negative way? Where can i get the relay kit and who does this in bangalore?

                        The handle bar is fixed on rubber cushioned studs and if their pinion is bent then also the problem you had told will happen. Get it changed.

                        Also fix CBZ crash/Leg guard..it is a direct fit.

                        I had been to the HHSC today to resolve the bent handle bar problem,..told them it might be because of handle bar studs,.. they inspected the bike, some idiotic mech kicked the wheel a few times,then the supervisor informed me that there is slight bend in the fork, and that they have to machine it using a lathe,.it would take one full day and cost around 600 rs. but as i mentioned earlier there is no leakage from oil sea iin the fork,.bike doesnt pull towards anyside while riding, i really dont think the fork is bent,. how do i make sure of it??? how do i tell him about the handle bar studs???

                            • Karizma R with rear disc break from ZMR

                              Hi I own a 2010 ZMA R I have adapted the rear disc break from ZMR to my bike. The breaking distance went down by 70%. I did the same fitting with my pulsar 150 ug2 but the disc setup of ZMR rocks BETTER. I will post pics soon.

                              I am also planing about changing the front break line to the steel braided one from pulsar 220 but the probiker people are not providing me one without a 220 RC : (
