        Yeah! Night rides are much better now though.

That's the bike's nature. I've been looking for a serious negative point in ZMR and unable to come up with any, to be honest! Please come forward if any of you think you have a valid point. it cannot be off-topic as these points will definitely help the TS in deciding. And it'll help me in advising others in future and simultaneously clearing my doubts!
          i think the biggest problem that i am facing in daily usage is the absence of an engine kill switch,every time you to stop the engine,you have to roll that damn key.and also the rear indicators, i break them every time i have a pillion and that means two three times a day and i have to squeeze it back in,it is positioned so badly that every time someone gets off of your bike they will surely break it and it is good that you dont have to replace it and you can just squeeze it back in as i do from day one since i purchased the bike.apart from that there is nothing wrong with the bike that i can think of!

            This sounds like a major disadvantage isn't there anyway to prevent this?

            He means to say the headlight is better than the old ZMRs.. the old ones have a poor headlight throw.. and also means it is not upto the mark yet especially if you are a night rider.. I was comfortable with the 35/35W stock bulb on my Black Pearl..

              Reneav was asking on the lighting front w.r.t classic ZMR. Hence my reply. ZMR V2 lights up roads better despite having a 35w lamp. Maybe better (design of) reflectors play a role.

                  My suggestion is to use the RVMs as they are life savers.. Saved me more than 10 times from the morons who don't care about us on bikes..

                  we have used it in our bikes from a very long time and the Osram Night Breakers are the best used till date.. they won't harm the battery or the reflectors.. Don't go for HID.. if at all you go for the HID.. go for a 4300 K as Yellow light has better luminosity as compared to the white light.. specially during rain..

                    okay,even i have noticed that the luminosity is quite good now and the high beam throw is quite long..

                            I would agree with the ASCs. Plus the performance would be limited. Looking at the specs on the website, the capacity of bikes in UM range from 125-200cc.

                            Although, I must the say they have done a bang up in looks department (subjective). I personally like the look of 'Sport' model.

                                yeah bro every time somebody sits on my bike they always end up breaking that indicator and its always the same indicator and not the other one,so it breaks easily every time,but i can live with it..it only breaks when somebody accidentally pushes it..
