    Reason.. why would they invest on creating a new ZMA just to make the sales of ZMR go high?? I mean.. they are the losers if they thought it this way, right?
    They have to upgrade both, so make the flagship variant look better than the variant below it; the flagship model needs more sales. Of course, I am not saying I am completely right, but you know, anything can happen.

      I somehow feel Hero intentionally made the ZMA look very bad compared to ZMR to promote the sales of ZMR. Currently, many preferred ZMA over ZMR due to the better looks of ZMA at a better price point. Now, with ZMA looking ugly, people prefer ZMR over ZMA. Just my guess.
      just go thorough all the pictures again....I am sure you will start liking ZMA also. Its not looking bad at all. Its looking mean and aggressive now...

        Errr.. I don't know.. but you are right.. anything can go in their minds.. but again.. ZMR was suppose to be better looking than the ZMA when it was launched..

          The classy lines of ZMA are gone. The front looks really out of place in the new Karizma. Even the ZMR has much better lines. On the other hand, the side profile looks okay. These are just my opinions.

            just a personal opinion, but the older models looked way better than these..
            Hero not delivering whats really asked in the market..

            Ride safe and have fun.

              Agreed with you.. the ZMA always was sexy for the lovely lines it had.. that aerodynamic sharp design from front.. just sexy..

                      Looks good to my eyes.. but the long fairing from the side angle looks odd on the ZMA.. lets see how it looks in flesh.. I guess they will showcase these beasts in Vasant Vihar showroom soon..

                          This is actually looking better than the previous pics from Macau..

                          The indicators seem like a headlight assembly and it pretty much looks like the old Buell bikes...

                          instead of the vertical headlights.. if they have made use of the indicator place, the bike would have looked sexier.. a projector dual horizontally placed to each other would also have done instead of the vertical.. but they are following footsteps of EBR 1190

                            Indeed it's looking hotter than before , gosh if only at least they had monoshock instead of dual, it would had more looks to this, just like a superbike and especially the white is the sexiest of 'em all. . .
