for Fi version the warranty is 2yr or 30,000 km which ever is earlier.that's for the whole vehicle including electricals ,headlight and other things covered under warranty.5yr and unlimited km warranty is only for the engine not the whole vehicle which means after 2yrs you can not claim warranty for any other thing except the engine parts. i hope this makes it clear and i believe its the same for the dtsi as well." if WRONG is a T-shirt ; then wearing it inside out doesn't make it RIGHT "

thanks for the explanation. still, i don't think i saw that 5-year-engine-warranty thing anywhere in the manual. and the overall warranty is same although, 2 years of 30,000 kms whichever is earlier.. will check again!Originally posted by burnrubbernotursoul View Postfor Fi version the warranty is 2yr or 30,000 km which ever is earlier.that's for the whole vehicle including electricals ,headlight and other things covered under warranty.5yr and unlimited km warranty is only for the engine not the whole vehicle which means after 2yrs you can not claim warranty for any other thing except the engine parts. i hope this makes it clear and i believe its the same for the dtsi as well.

ZMR looks pretty good.
But the things that made me an owner of p220 are:
1.ZMR cant keep up with a p220 on highways...
(Disappointment is a pain
)
2.100 section(BSA SLR like) tire on the rear is pathetic.,especially the zmr got bulky fairing and all.
3.ZMR is pricy.
4.Performance is more important than looks
.
5.GSX R 600/750 head lamps and busa's sticker jobe will not make a 223cc 17.6 ps machine so robust.
The build quality is great I must say.But HH copy paste engineers need to read XBHP threads and learn what we need from them.
Or else in the year 2015 they will come up with a new karizma with 18.1 PS and even bulky fairing...

+100 to that,also the ZMR weighs 159kgs,also with the absence of liquid cooling a full fairing is a disaster in the long run.The zmr in my opinion is a hybrid of the KARIZMA-R & CBZ xtreme! Also a lot of "HERO HONDA LOVERS" will say that the ZMR is much better but what about the 4 BHPOriginally posted by kochumvk View PostZMR looks pretty good.

when the strech is empty, my bike tells me to wring its throttle and give my commands!

Even i was in the same dilemma few days ago , but just Test drive the bikes and chose the one which you feel is better and suits you, because its ultimately you who is going to share life with it

Its good to post some competition to bajaj, so that we will get a 23 bhp machine then.Originally posted by ravi@17bhp View PostVery good points. You hit the nail on the head.
OT: Heard that Apache RTR 220 is coming soon with 22 bhp.
The apache 220 will be a speed king probably... It will win hearts if tvs manages to keep vibs under control.

Will say about 220.
1.Stability: Its rock solid on windy highways. Conering is not bad either.
It feels easy for me... I am just 63 Kg.
2.This machine feels built good.I have seen many pulsars maintained good around me.
3.Comfort: one word: amazing..
4.No probs as u expect.
I did not ment that zmr is a bad machine.
In spite of my respect to it i must say... HH need to do something to keep themselves in performance league...
may be begging to honda for a new engine if HH cant make one
