    This will become a full fledged war. Besides, there are quite a few unanswered questions as well.

        None of your Queries can be answered...

        Coz the bike has not yet been started for sales,,,, It has been only launched
        So you have to wait for some more days to get answers......
        If you think of Fuel economy then ZMR is not supposed to be your Choice.....

          fuel economy .. then ZMR is out but if you are looking for smooth engine, better handling and a comfortable ride then the ZMR is sure in but there reamains the high maintainence cost factor involved too.

              that means the p220 fuel efficiency is much more in comparison to the zmr..
              well so how much does the p220 return to a liter of petrol..

                  My 220 FI returns around 45km/L.

                  It is this maintenance that he is talking about that would be expensive.

                    1) considering the fact that the P220 DTSFI and the R15 generally don't give below 30 KMPL how ever it is ripped (there are a few exceptions everywhere) and generally returna steady 35 or 40 KMPL even on continuous high speed runs, we have every reason to believe that the ZMR with Honda's 12 point PGM-Fi gives around the same numbers or better.
                    2) If you cannot get to ride a ZMR, try the ZMA and the ZMR only betters it
                    3) The ZMR rides very well mannered. So much that some people feel it as not exciting
                    4) The P220 rides like a daemon that excites most people
                    5) Both are two very different characters. Once you get to ride them you decide what kind of character you like.

                        i have yet to see the zmr in flesh and its only then i can decide upon it..
                        it shouldnt be like i purchase the bike and den keep cribbinn on its poor F.E.., cos i minimum xpect 35-45 kmpl frm it.. and thers where the p220 scores.. better performance, better F.E, VFM, cons are vibes, quality (its my personal opinion)

                          FI - Its a Fuel Injection model - It returns better mileage - but the fact is maintenance is a bit high

                          SI - Its a Carb Model gives you More Top end returns lesser mileage

                          As far as Higher CC bikes are concerned you will not get a Better mileage - coz they are not made for to return best mileage - they are meant to be ripped and riding with extreme speeds.....

                          If you are a mileage freak do not go for higher cc bikes - Coz not every bikes are similar - one may return best mileage another may return very bad,,,,,,,

                            so in short you mean to say that :
                            p220 Fi : better mileage , Compromises on Perfomance
                            p220 dtsi : better performance, compromises on mileage

                            any ways can u still tell me the exact mileage of a p220 dtsi

                              If you rip her a lot lesser than 35......
