Re: New ZMA or P220 DTS-i?

Motoroids have given a bad review.. [emoji3]
and you are giving false statements without riding it.

Re: New ZMA or P220 DTS-i?

I'm myself a Hero product owner and no hatred towards any company, I believed motoroids, never knew this, I have rode karizmas only in my hometown and there you cant ride in 5th very often, i always knew karizmas have better low end torque.

Sorry for that than, Thread-starter please ignore the low end thingy and fairing vibes thing was told to me by reno himself.
OT: I suggest you to watch "Shadi ke side effects" rreneav1987.

Re: New ZMA or P220 DTS-i?

No ways. I never said that. I have said vibes have definitely reduced compared to older models. But the engine felt rough because its a new bike

Re: New ZMA or P220 DTS-i?

Why did [MENTION=59533]Rakesh Rok[/MENTION] say that then?

Guys, chill! New ZMR has vibes. Every (faired) bike resonates.
But, vibes are reduced w.r.t old ZMR. Maybe Rakesh rode a badly ridden TR bike. And, you can ride the new ZMR in 5th at ~35-36ish speeds.

We're going OT on this thread.

Decade old warhorses still live another day for the battle..
On the ZMA vs 220 topic its never ending story, both are good in their own ways. Have owned both and both are very different in characteristics. The Zma is torquey at low revs and smoother of the two bikes no doubt. The Zma is much much better inside city with lighter handlebar and torquey engine, it can more than keep up with 220 and infact i would say it easily stays ahead till 60-70kmph with good torque surge, the 220 feels boring and slow inside city with handlebar requiring more efforts compared to zma due to front weight bias of 220. Once the road clears out and you are able to cross more than 80kmph then 220 comes onto its own, the mid and higher revs range (6-9.5k) have very strong surge of acceleration and its very easy to outrun zma. The highways are more enjoyable on 220 with more stability due to front weight bias, broader footwear, better lights, great top end rush and taller gearing.
The 220 vibes are nothing disturbing but ya its definitely more than Zma, I dont feel it annoying at all. It adds a character to the bike infact :P

Re: New ZMA or P220 DTS-i?

No matter how many decades pass by, this topic will have active debate and come back to the same conclusion. That each is good in its own ways. And again, a spark will start the debate all over!!

That being said i would really suggest the 220 over karizma.
The looks,the power and headlights are much better on the pulsar.
