  • Well, I have few friends/relatives using Amaron sealed batts both cars and bikes. We have an inverter running off a 180 Ah Amaron battery too (4.5 years). Never had or heard of any problems.

    The battery with all kinds of problems is undisputedly the ubiquitious EXIDE! Just buy anything except Exide and Amco... and you can't go terribly wrong. And sealed and factory charged is better as the dealers don't get a chance to rape it.

    The next battery I buy for the car (due) will also most like be Amaron... or a Bosch (depending on availability/price). It should be available at the Bosh dealer though.

    Btw, the last time I went battery shopping here, all the dealers here who had Amarons said its the best buy. How do you explain that?

      Regarding Amaron Sealed batteries, I guess it is useless to rack our heads on this issue. We will suggest the Amaron. We will think when somebody gets any problem.

      When dealers suggested Exide, I directly said 'NO'.

        bro i want to change my zma soon coz i had i big accident i month ago in which the whole front end of the bike got damaged (fairings, headlight,mudguard,rvm,visor etc.)

        the tank got scratched and dented and now after repairs and all half the bike is zma r while the other half is 05 zma!!

        • New zma on the cards

          Dont know if anyone has posted this before,didnt have the patience to go thru the previous posts
          Source-Auto bild magazine-July edition
          As per the article a new zma is on the cards.The magazine has published a spy pic of the test mule.Some of the new features as per the magazine are-new front fairing and side and tail pieces,a hunk like rear mudguard along with a rear disc setup,rear gas shocks,though its not sure whether the new zma wud get a fuel injection.

          The bike would though retain the touring stance.

                  • Awesome piece of NEWS, I never get excited unless its a news related to the ZMAs or a new HONDA bike...
                    Cant wait to put my hands on it...

                        Yeh man, power is the need of time. Every other bike maker is selling power with old body. I hope HH is getting us a ZMA with more Power+new body
                        atleast some 24-25 bhp

                            • RVMs seems integrated in the fairing. I hope they are more R15sque rather than P220sque!
