        yeah i know...but the ZMR/ZMR much more comfortable for city/touring due to seating posture that is mix of commuter and a little sportiness...

          Don't you think its too early to say its copy of R15 without clear pictures? Features are not just property of one brand/model. You can reserve your comments until a clear picture is out without any camouflage. And FYI, R15 has full fairing and this Karizma upgrade has only half-fairing.

            Naa.. i am just saying it it is actually falls under Premium Bike segment.. Since it has the most comfy seating position along with the comfortable seats and the wonderfully smooth engine they terms it as sports tourer (they - us)..

              Is it just me or the bike appears to have unusually long wheelbase? Or is it because of the tiny rider?

                    Well, the one without the rear disc is Semi-faired. Can't find a radiator or coolant

                    So hero is cutting costs here n there

                    Now I'm having doubts whether the other one with rear disc break would have an fully faired mask or not.

                        Riaz, It doesn't seem to have long wheelbase. It just looks like ZMA's wheelbase. The wheelbase for ZMA is already long.

                          The girl is too small which is making the bike huge. Although hero bikes are bigger than competitors in same segments, but the small frame of the girl is making it look very big.Even we can see in the rider seat another girl of same frame will easily accommodate.

                          On the lighter side more spy shots of the girl would have been welcome.

                          Although present generation ZMA has a fantastic and flexible engine but modifying the same engine with four valves and more power around 21-22 bhp will suffice till hero comes out with 250 cc bike

                            You are right.. Hero used the words "PREMIUM SPORTS" for the ZMA.. at the time when the ZMA was launched it was indeed considered a "Premium" offering.

                            "Touring" is a tag attached by guys like xBhpians.

                              This bike is way too disappointing. Was expecting a higher cc bike and hero is still stuck with the karizma??

                                Cant be so sure of anything.. Only the actual launch or some better leaks may clear the issue..
                                hero has long been stuck with either the 100cc bikes or with their karizma in the hope of rescuing them..
                                i think this might be a good time for them to show something inspiring..

                                btw, leaks with girls always do make for something to talk about..

                                Ride safe and have fun.
