    If I were you, first would compare both the versions of Karizma to see if there is a room to make this alteration. Take a deep insight on the rear arm and try to make out some measurement to see if disc set up could accommodate. I would be very careful before going this mod as least this should not destabilize or bring the handling a question mark.

    Then would take up the work shop manual/spare parts manual to determine the parts required for this change. If no one has done this before in our community it is better to take advise from other circle to find out the more information if anyone has done that.

          Ok bro,I think disconnecting the wires from battery terminals will be better for the battery.

          You have to order it,They wont have stock with them.

            Since its registered in Mumbai the bike can be used anywhere in Maharashtra. Thats not a problem. But in-case you have shifted to a new state( i presume Kerala) you will have to get the bike registered in the new state by paying the road tax. Also for this you need to get the NOC from the Maharashtra RTO.

            If you are using the bike temporarily in Kerala don't bother to have it changed..you can manage for a few days with MH registration.

                  The rear disk from the ZMR can be mounted on the ZMA.
                  You will need the following parts:
                  1. Rear Alloy Wheel ( to fix the rotor disk) - Of the ZMR
                  2. Swing Arm (which has the mounts for the calipers) - am not sure about this, maybe you could avoid this. You will still have to get the mounting bracket for the calipers.
                  3. Master cylinder, the whole disk plumbing with hose etc. etc.
                  4. A lot of Money and Patience ....

                  The rear wheel on the ZMR is also 18 inches and the swing arm are also the same.So there would not be any handling issues.

                    Where do you see the oil leakage from, the tensioner or valve head cover???
                    Was the list recommended by the SVC or a local mech. My dvice would be that you stick to a single person to service and repair the bike.

                      I can see oil over the left upper part of the engine head,Near gear axle,Under the engine,etc

                      Was the list recommended by the SVC or a local mech.
                      Local mech,I wont go to SVC anymore,Fed up with them

                      My dvice would be that you stick to a single person to service and repair the bike.
                      Yeah,Now i do all my repairs at the local mech,I don't believe SVC anymore.

                        If the oil leak is from the highest part of the head the valve inspection cap is leaky...change the '0' ring
                        For oil leak from Gear shaft area...three possibilities.
                        1. Drive shaft oil seal.
                        2. Gear shaft oil seal
                        3. Neutral indicator connecting stub '0' ring.
                        All parts are available....In my ZMA I had oil leak from Gear shifter side and even after changing Drive shaft and gear shifter oil seals problem continued...then it was foundto be the Neutral indicator connecting stub ..replaced at Rs.28/- from HH...with outside Mech.
                        A Picture of specific area will help.

                        • ^^^Just the o-ring, seals and gaskets should not cost you 2500. Suggest you buy hem and ask the mech to fit them.
                          Check for yourself if the clutch plates needs to be replaced. By "clutch vasing"...i guess he means clutch washing...but that again don't make sense. Probe him more and ask what exact ally he means..

                            I had a deep look at a zmr today in my office parking. I am pretty sure now this will be a direct fit without much hassle. I think we can even retain the same swing arm if a small welding can be done for the rod (1 feet black rod connecting caliper to swingarm) mount at the point where it connects to the swingarm.

                            What i dont know is where the rear master cylinder sits ?

                            I think the costs will be within 8k and benefits will be really worth it.

                              Gasket Set Full 550
                              Valve Seal X 2 80
