The new zma looks like a cloning job done by a mad scientist between honda and suzuki or did a merger take place between the two companies

Hayabusa+karizma+Hayazma

Hope there are some performance perks

Yahh! its looking too bulky and top of that Honda and Yamaha already got the tag of pricy product maker compare to bajaj whose same caliber bike is coming at 72K's ONLY. I would love to see its front view and other details.

Take a closer look at the front tyres. I think they are the stock tubed ones! The brake pedal is new(may be for rear disc bt even Xtreme had d same)
Even I think the speedo is looking to be same but the casing may b diff.

Just by looking at the tyre how can you say that its the same tubed type one...all MRF tyres whether Tubed or Tubeless look the same..

Remove the fairing and you'll find an Xtreme with clip-ons : Major Turn Off.
The tail piece is not all that great. Reminds me of the Xtreme.
Golden Engine

. Doesn't make sense to me, as in "WHY???". "for what joy??"
Looks like the imitation watches we get in indoor dubai plaza, Bangalore
I mean imitating the Busa.
I'm a big ZMA fan. But the white paint job is goood. Wish it is pearlescent paint.
No offences to anyone but this was what i felt

Recently launched Stunner PGM Fi too have a golden engine...may be they want to differentiate the carb engine and Fi engine...

Look like kick has taken off as they have done with Stunner PGM Fi...

good to see world's no.1 maufacturer at work...... good for HH to do something to satisfy the customers......
but is the news true...... can we believe it....... even there is no authenticity...... it might be a good quality aftermarket attachment....... n maybe the friends played a joke with bikerharis

.......

can we have some authenticity......

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.

even the news is approved and its moved at light's speed

specifications?

**Nio** · 07-09-2009, 01:51 PM

I have a small question... Karizma being a tourer will that fairing be uncomfortable for tall people? Won't that full fairing hurt the knee of the riders? Because I myself have ridden a modded Zma with such engine guard and I felt my knee getting hurt by the fairing everytime I apply breaks or corners it.

I never had problem with R15 which is treated as short bike with its fairing. ZMA begin the taller bike, fairing must not be any problem for the tall riders.
