Go for Zma-R
@hondarider : As a wing rider, you may not like Pulsars, especially, the engine refinement, seating posture, suspension, gearbox etc etc. You can close your eyes and go for present Zma-R, b'cos the new Zma will be priced in par with new features it would sport (assume strict hike of min. 10K for PGMFi) etc etc etc !!
Whether HH will stop present Zma-R or not it's not clear, if they close, there will be many people who would still prefer non-Fi Zma-R, so weigh options and decide.
> If your budget is tight at 80K, then go and book Zma-R.
> If money is not a problem, then better wait and then take a call.

Last week end (sat), I had test driven the new P220 .... In fact I went along with my friend who already has P220 DTSFi, even his opinion was 'not impressive'.Originally posted by rossiter View Post@vipin_s: Have you ridden the new 220? Or the Zma-Fi?
I have no idea about Zma-Fi, I just recommended Zma-R (the present one), according to me it's still a good bet in premium segment.
It's just my opinion, if it's offensive please delete the post. Thanks.

zma is the best
well zma has stood as a proven and reliable bikes for more than a decade. and many persons who have used the older 220 and karizma have felt that karizma is a winner in long term when it comes to maintenance, stability, i am not talking about mileage here. i feel the current zma with R looks are not tht good as compared to the older karizma. i feel its worth waiting as zma will as always prove itself

First of all, define "impressive". A Fi owner will most definitely feel the lack of the torque that in the DTS-i; having said that, if your friend has ridden the new DTS-i properly, he will appreciate the better gearing and handling. The new DTS-i is more peaky and hence the rush of horses is at the top, starting from mid range.Originally posted by vipin_s View PostLast week end (sat), I had test driven the new P220 ....

ZMA-R is a good bike no doubt...but to call it the best deal in the market is incorrect...Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.

I dont think most of these people have gone to a HH service station to check out the prices of their spares. One of the main reasons i stayed off the ZMA.Originally posted by prafultripathy View PostOT:

Though P220 ought to give more trouble in the regular run, i believe its overall a much cheaper bike to own and run.
And finally going the by Honda's pricing on the Stunner and their old Glamour Fi the ZMR is sure to cost you more or less the price of the R15. And yeah the P220 is not going to as refined as the Honda during the long run. Also the ZMR has better seating position for touring.

Hi Jasmeet
If the news is from TATIBANDH, it must be true, so my wait time again increases. Am no more good to be patient, going to buy ZMA.....
ParryEvery time i am able to change my bike's engine oil, i feel like passing another semester amongst thousands, of being a proficient rider.

I will say that get all information about ZMR before you go for it.
Remember Unicorn? Hero Honda went ahead, did some cams change for 1.1 more bhp on it, and the result --> CBZ Xtreme and Hunk are not as smooth as Unicorn.
We still know HH has no R&D Department. I'm not saying it would be bad. I'm just saying that get all information before you proceed...
