    If you alter anything on your bike, "EVEN YOUR BIKE'S TYRE", or if you have not done the services as per schedule, they can reject the warranty claim. Else, it is okay. I own a hero honda karizma ZMR which comes with 3 year engine warranty and can be extended for 2 more years. But my fear is, if I change the engine oil to SS type, the service interval will be more than 5000 kms. But in the book, they have stated, once service should be done every 3000 kms. So will I get warranty?
    RVM is a good tool to see your buddys losing behind while racing :)

    Now @ 223CC Karizma ZMR

      you miss any service & they can refuse to let you claim any warranty on their product..& regarding changing tire, if you gonna put tire of same size then its ok with them but if you are cutting/removing chain guard or doing other alterations then your warranty is void..it is obvious that no one gonna run his bike for 70k kms on stock tires just to claim warranty..lol

      I extended 2yr warranty on my ZMR as well at the time of its purchase so it became 5yr but as I am using SS oil since after free services so I am very sure that i had crossed the minimum duration of paid services according to them..

        That's lot of mileage on the ODO and surely the quality is by far the best when it comes to Hero Honda and sure Hero have learned a lot from Honda. Real great effort by Hero.

        Cheers!

        Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
        The girl said, 'NO!'


        And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


        THE END

          5 Years warranty is nice, helps in regaining the trust.

          But There was some other manufacturer ( I guess SYM) that gave life time warranty on its scooters.


          All the warranty claim stuff boils down to the the rapport you have with the ASC guys. If you have good rapport, then its easy to get things done.

          My CBZ Xtreme always used

          1. Gulf 10w30 Engine oil
          2. Michelin Tires with M45 4.00x18 on rear
          3. Nightbreaker 55w headlamp

          But still I had no problem in claiming warranty for the left side crank case (screwed by ASC) and bore section.
          Hero is very good when it comes to resolving the issues with ASC, they always take customers side.

            No one will dare to give their bike to HASC even for even free service. So the 5 year gimmick is pointless

              There is a huge difference after the breakup. The so called Hero bikes are coming with parts which are not fitted appropriately, stickers will start pealing out from the bike after the first service. Moreover customer service is bad. Showrooms have started giving booked vehicles for test rides. No trained mechanics available (specially in the new show rooms). You cant choose your favorite color and have to book the color which is available in the showroom and the showroom people will start giving excuses "it will take 3 months for the other colors to come".

              Only plus point I see in Hero now is the engine.
