  • Disappointed....

    Looks like someone's modified ZMA to me.....

    i would like to call her Karina.... (fully dressed)

    Fairing looks too heavy... and the placement of the Sticker looks totally odd,
    the ZMR has no meaning and doesn’t look cool at all ,

    i am not able to make out what is written next to the ZMR....

    what i did notice, is the gas filled rear shock in gold hiding behind the saree gaurd . is it the same ZMA on cloak...

    Look like ZMA is heading towards the doom in the design department like the CBZ...exept the rear treatment which looks more like the CBZ Xtream.

    If in deed, this is the new ZMA... God help us all

    Like earlier they should have taken more design ques for CBF 600 S on the new ZMA, and should have retained the semi fairing

            Please do mention from where you got these pictures. If that is the new Karizma, then I am sorry to say that does not appeal to me at all! I mean it looks kind of out of proportion to me!
            Thank you for approving ,

            I got these pics from one of my orkut friend's album. He is from Chennai and his friend gave him these pics. Both of them dont know anything about this. . Sorry for starting a thread with a news from Orkut. But it's so real.

            As you said it looks out of proportion, Fairing looks bulgy as compared to the tank.

              No way . I dont think it's a modified one. Take a closer look, It's not custom built panels or something. At least check out the quality of the painting.
              The decal in fairing is not "HAAYAABUSAAA" it's ZMR or something else. A PGM-FI logo is also there. Then the grab rails are similar to X-treme, but not the tail lights, It's new (look at d 2nd and 3rd one's). Clip ons are higher than P220/RTR/R15. new fairing mounted RVMs and a new headlight. So i can easily say that this is not a mod job..

                  dnt know about the bike being fastest or otherwise, but hell sure the thread is off the blocks with traction control switched off. nice going.

                  if this is going to turn out in flesh, how many would bring it dwn to buff and how many would put on new clothes onto their old zma..??

                        • Why isn't my pulse racing? Why am I not excited at all? I have been waiting for this for years now! We all know that HH is slow in everything but this...!!!

                          I hope there is some saving grace. Better torque. Better handling. Newer chassis. Will they ever give us a twin spar?

                          • Actually, when I first saw the spy pic, I was impressed cause the spy bike looks much more proportionate than what we see here. Secondly, there are so many permutations to the speculation regarding its Cubic Capacity, Weight, Cooling, Power etc.

                            First if we assume that the engine is a regular one with Fi and the new bodywork (my heart wants to disagree on that one), the bike may not hit the nail where it has to. For me, a 230 CC Fi, Liquid Cooled, Six Speed Transmission would be the ideal choice...why? cause HH may want to kill two birds with one stone.

                            ZMA is the number one choice of tourers (it was mine too). With the introduction of newer rivals, it will be forced to take back its market. The new 220 with its power advantage and better gearing may actually take a swipe at the existing ZMA's market, especially with the current price tag. The R15 will always appeal to the track crazy and poser public. The newer speculations of the Ninja and to some extent even the 250 from Yamaha (have heard about this so many times but not concrete I believe) must be present in the threat list of the new contender.

                            To beat all of them, HH needs a bike that betters all existing threats in performance and more or less matches the speculated ones. The factor for this would be price. If priced reasonably, it might actually capture the yuppie market with more power than the existing competitors and almost equal to the new sports bikes with similar full faired looks. Expect it to be priced more than the R15 if it satisfies the specs that I wished for.

                            All this might be seriously OT to this thread but as far as the looks are concerned, the fairing looks way out of proportion.
                            Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.
