  • Re: Hero Honda Karizma ZMR

    Like how the handle bars are positioned on the ZMR. Looks very comfortable with a touch of sportiness. Still, no proper, high resolution, sharp launch pics of the Karizmas. I guess we will have to wait for their India launch to have all the information.

      Looks Better on this angle.. They should have changed the styling of tank and the Hero logo makes it worse

      I guess the spy pics are making Uglier.. Have to see the Bike in flesh. I hated the look of P200ns on spy pics, thought it looks like P135, but in flesh it was just Awesome.
      So I'm thinking the same would be this new ZMR, well not awesome but something in between bad n good
      better pics.. but the swing arm length is too less compared to where the tail is ending.. the fairing sure looks like the amount of plastic has reduced compared to the current models so guessing that the weight has reduced.. also the chain guard is removed.. so additional 1.5 kgs reduced.. the Current ZMR Tail light looks heavy and I guess they would have saved some weight by removing it... and the handle bar height seems to have reduced.. which might again reduce some 500 gms.. so altogether.. I am taking a guess that they might have reduced atleast 5kgs which might add to the performance factor... lets wait and see..

      PS. The Tail Light is definitely the same as the EBR 1190 Looks fantastic from the side view and we can see the shape of the stop lamp.. pretty excited and wanna see the upcoming 250cc bikes spied.. Going to Vasant Vihar this weekend just to see if they have put these bikes on display.. if they have, i will get HD pics in all possible views..

        Yes it seems to be too long.. and its going to splutter lots of muck on the person riding behind during monsoons ... The tyres? they look like 110 from certain angles..

At least that's what I inferred from months or lurking on threads of bikes all the way from CB Trigger/Hunk/Xtreme to Duke200. Also, Hero has to stop using Honda's tech right? Can they introduce a model which uses Honda tech and keep it in production after the deadline? What's the deadline, December 2013?
          In order to use Honda's technology again, they need to renew their license for that which I think Hero will not do now. . . Coming to other stuffs, leave aside Honda, now they are with Erik Buell and they are one good people and we can expect good bikes with this partnership (HOPEFULLY). . .

          Cheers!!!

          This reminds me of a saying, "there's always something ugly about a new bike ", let's see it live and hope that it definitely impresses us and hasn't anyone noticed, the new exhaust, is nothing but the old exhaust with an extra cover added to it. . . I guess it's Hero's strategies to make easy accessible of parts and also sharing this new karizma's parts with the old ones, what say guys. . ?

            Making the spare part availability easier?? and cost cutting.. they are probably investing more on the new 250cc.. infact why to spend much on old stuff when something big is coming!

                    Xtreme never looked so better. What stopped them from doing a good job on ZMA and ZMR. Is it me, or some body else noticed, head to be little bigger on Xtreme and ZMA than the existing model.

                      You are right...xtreme is looking beautiful but its headlight is looking slightly similer to new discover...overall its looking much better ans sleaker than before. One thing they should have retained from the older model was its speedo. New speedo is looking v bulky, ackward and inpired from cbr 150 n 250....

                        How can you say that it is bulky and inspired from cbr? There is no pic which shows the speedo.

                            Any pics of the zmrrrrr and karizmaaaa?

                            I kinda don't like the new looks of the xtreme.. its awkward.. looking like its been breeded from the Hero Splendor NXG.. the tank I mean

                            Another side image of the ZMR.. Not sure if it has been shared.. sharing it in case it hasn't been shared..

                            Not a clear pic though..

                              Didnt they invite Media? No pics online by any media at all. What kind of unveil is that? Do they really have such a big market there to make a launch ? I know they had launched their logo too outside. Doesnt really make sense when their prime market is by and large in INDIA !

                                This is a Dealer conference where all the prominent dealers were taken to exotic locals and some future products are unveiled and plans were shared. An yearly exercise by Hero Moto Corp

                                All the pics that you see over the net are mobile pics clicked by dealers and probably some Hero sales guys
