My dilemma
I know all the merits and demerits of both the bikes and the different classes they belong to..but still, i too am stuck in this dilemma.
Zma R or FZ 16? with the below mentioned points:
1. I'm out of India, I'll be using my bike only when in India or it will be occassionally used by my nephew.
2. The bike will remain unused for quite some time........so in such cases which one is advisable?
3. Cost of Spares and mileage is NOT a concern....BUT the spares should be AVAILABLE EASILY.
4. Mostly i'll have a pillion rider with me on my rides.
5. My ride will be 70% city and 30% suburbs.
Please advice...!!

Thanks guys.
People suggesting ZMA:
1. Came to know the bike is not smooth until 2nd service...so?!
2. Spares non-availability (agreed i'll not need them for atleast 2yrs)?
3. Will Karizma be phased out?
4. Isn't the split between Hero and Honda a concern? Already it's only stickering job being done on all the latest launches.
Right now i'm inclined more towards FZ, say FZ - 70% and Zma - 30%.
FZ scores on looks, rear tyre, pick-up and engine refinement.
If any of u guys can sway my decision!!

+1 fz has very short gearing .and struggles to attain top speed.Originally posted by amit_rulz View Posti would suggest ZMA...
i didnt find FZ16 that interesting, it struggles on highways
where as zma is complete bike whether use it as city bike or do touring .
it got a lot of torque.and can do 125+ very easily..................................................

+1 Mitz, i totally agree with you.Originally posted by mitz View Post+1^^
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 do
The FZ is indeed a good touring machine but in the long run you feel the need for more power.Ride Hard !!! Ride Safe!!! Enjoy every moment on your machine !!! Cheers....

Hey,
for long distance touring... nothing beats a zma/r proven tourer.. you can see enough testimonials posted all over this site.
spares scenario is dependent upon svc to svcs...
plus at a later stage if you want more performance & FE upgrades.. Joel's workshop is the place to visit
FZ an awesome sports commuter but definitely loses out to zma/r when you want to do triple digits on the highway... so the answer is pretty clear..
cheersA quote by a toilet, " use me well, keep me clean, i would never tell anybody whatever i have seen.." :P
