The Only answer is KARIZMA-R , a Relaxed and Proven Tourer , with Plenty of torque. The Only issues in my view are the Cost of Spares and the Fuel Economy , if you are ok with these issues then you can blindly trust the Reliable Honda engine.If u Wanna Break The "LAWS" , Break "NEWTON's "Comment

KArizma or ZMR could do the job for you & fits your requirements the best. As a owner of FZ, trust me, it is a fantastic machine but it is not as capable of what a karizma can doComment

Close ur eyes and buy the ZMA-R.. its a wonder dude.. I sold my new P180 and bought a 5 year old ZMa and trust me, I have no regrets. Not one bit.
the bike is awesome for the highways and the city also.
Ride it well and u will get a mileage better than the FZ also.Never Argue with an Idiot !!!
He will bring you down to his level and beat you with his experience.Comment

Karizma mileage is pathetic but it is the best touring machine...
FZ16/S are best city machine...
Get karizma as you are a tourer..Riding, loving and enjoying my lord of the streets.. FZ-S...
And dreaming of an R6/R1/FZ1/CBR 1000RR

thank you guys ill get the karizma r for sure now but the thing about spares!!!!!! wat does it technically include??? spares means the ferring and the body parts??? are they costly??? i heard the break lights too a headache for karizma r!!!! do they really coat much???LosT in TimE!!!Comment

Not really. Been getting 45 tp 50 kmpl for the past one year. I can easily get 45 can stretch upto 50 when I have a mind to. Mind you though, I am very relaxed rider.Originally posted by krates View Post
Cheaper parts generally means more frequent purchase. Expensive parts generally means rare purchase. It'll come to same in the long run. Except with expensive parts you can ride for long duration without headache. To rephrase simply, it means if you dont have to purchase spare parts, you don't spend money. Heard about brake lights going kaput though mine is still running on the original bulbs since I purchased about a year ago.Originally posted by nykmeister View Post
Regarding FZ16 and Zma, I too had the same question before I purchased my Zma. Got Zma as my travel consist heavely on highway. You won't regret it.Comment

why dont you consider p220.Karizma is a good tourer but not straight out of the showroom.After buying the zma you will have to upgrade to better horn headlight tyres and a leg guard to make it a better touring machine.the plastic parts in zma are prone to break at the joints.Also suspension of p220 is better over pothole ridden roads.I bought the Ninja 250R !!.....And then i woke up :(Comment

Touring in a fz is not all that comfortable and fz gives around 35-40 so karizma it is ..signature not found..Comment

Dont worry about the brake light its a very minor issue.....brake light cost only 10 bucks.
about the spares cost--yes they are expensive but they also last longer than other bikes spare parts i mean like clutch plates,disk pads,rear barke linear,air filter,sporkets etc.
drive you bike carefully and the plastic parts i mean like faring, tank etc will give you no maintaince.
ZMA if driven between 75-85 constantly on highways without sudden burst to the throttle will return avg of around 43-44 eaisly.
make sure you maintain it well with regular service and oil change like any other bike.
ZMA on highways will munch up the miles eaisly with any issues.Comment
