    The wheels seems to be 18 inchers and tyres looks like that of the running model's.. I think Exhaust pipe is not so good looking as current Zma's.
    Fairing mounted RVM's point to a new design in place of old and flat Zma Fairing..
    Overall I expect a new design from HH than a rumored increase in power and displacement

      Actually, the sales of Zma increased tremendously in the last year or two. I see so many on the street now. Once I have counted 45 karizma's parked in the parking lot of Prasadz multiplex.

        @ravi: i agree on the sales part. To be frank.. you cant compare the sales of 220 with a zma.

                There is no doubt that ZMA's engine is arguably the best engine among Indian bikes. That engine has lot of potential for upgradation. I hope the new ZMA (if the spy pic is of a ZMA at all) comes with more powerful headlamp, horn, few more bhp (apart from the changes that we can already see). I sincerely hope this new RVMs will not be as bad as P220's RVMs. I liked the old ZMA's silencer than this one though.
                I seriously do not want to see the ZMA with Hunk's real panel + CBZ's tail lamp.
                Hope HH will not disappoint one of it's happiest customers this time.

                  Me feels it could be an air cooled 200cc full faired bike from Honda.

                  Neither Honda or HH has anything in that segment.

                    This is a reply to the OT:
                    220 DTSi is moreover a replacement/upgrade for the P200(which is now discontinued).. P220 DTSFi is still the flagship bike for Bajaj.. Hope you got your answer.

                      does hero honda have rights to modify honda's (karizma) engine ?? obviously there is a detailed agreement. anyone has any specifics on that ??
                      There once was a woman who was quite begat.
                      She had three babies named Nat, Pat, and Tat.
                      She said it was fun in the breeding,
                      But found it was hell in the feeding
                      When she saw there was no tit for Tat.

                        I hope this is indeed the long awaited upgraded Karizma with PGM-Fi. However, I'm inclined to (logically) believe this is the new CBR150 from Honda.

                        I hope I'm proved wrong!

                          You are right that P220 DTS-FI is flagship model for Bajaj, but it has not done well as expected. Sold very low in numbers. I see a P220 very rarely on the roads. P200 sold in good numbers than P220.

                          P220 DTS-i is technically degraded and priced competitively to sell the P220 in good numbers, which clearly indicates that P220 DTS-FI has not done well for bajaj as they expected.

                            IMO, the after sales service of Bajaj and Price were there only 2 reasons the 220 failed to produce good no. of sales figure.

                            P.S.: I own a P200 and not a P220.

                              The long wheelbase, the commuterish stance, the alloy wheels are similar to the Karizma. Honda said it would launch a 150cc variant that is sporty. Thought it is not a rule, such a long wheelbase with just 150cc mill does not do good.

                              I am somehow inclined towards a new bike from HH, and not Honda.

                              But, see this posted by Technician on Post #14. It has very smililarities to this CBR150. May be it is the bike from Honda. If you observe the rider position in the spy pic, it is very commuterish and not sporty as in CBR150. May be Honda's target tourers??
