If u need power and excitement in your ride go for Karizma.. If u need a performer and decent power delivery bike,, go for FAZER

Karizma r or fazer??

Hi all...great discussion here. I too want to decide bw the karizma r and the fazer.
i have almost fixed my mind on the karizma. But my only worry is that karizma is by now an old bike, isnt it? inspite of it being the best among the present lot, it came out in 2003 and has not undergone a major change till now, right? Is there a possibility that HH comes up with an upgraded version (like broader rear tyre, abs, rear disc etc.) in the near future?
Similarly, is a more powerful fazer on the anvil? 200...250cc? I dont mind waiting if there is any news to this effect.

Please help me make up mind between the two. The deciding factor for me is engine power, refinement, touring comfort and 'highway hardiness'. Thank u.

there is no comparison

ZMA is overall better bike then FZ series.......the FZ series scores only in one department over ZMA and thats Handling

karizma r is a fantastic bike with monster power then fazer, karizma is not old, it was revamped in 2007 with R series variant.

there is not evn a single chance that hh 'll come out with a revamped zma.
and no new fazer 'll be there for u....
so it's better that u choose between these two bikes.
I'll say that,
in fazer u'll get that additional styling quotent.But u'll lack speed after a certain point, say, 90 kmph.
But for city ride Fazer is better.In FE, fazer 'll give slight advantage over ZMA.
for touring, both 'll give u same comfort level.

Now choose according to ur use.

hi guys,
after a long waiting time, i finally got to know from the dealer that zma red only is available and not the yellow i asked for. They said they dont know when yellow will be delivered. So i made my mind for Red and asked them to show bike.
When i saw the bike, there was a small stratch(pen writing width of length around 7 or 8 cms) was there in the fairing part.
But i booked it. Im concerned about this scratch. When asked , dealer said it happens in some vehicles while delivering. Is this normal or any ways dealer can paint that stratch or anything like that?

Im expecting the delivery tomorrow evening.
Also dealer said Teflon coating will help prevent further scratches in future. Will this coating also helpful?
Please help me guys.

**Satyamzma** · 07-16-2010, 10:53 AM

yes Teflon coating helps retain the original paint quality...congrats for your Red Tourer

...its time to purchase some nice steelbird helmet and Adidas shoes for you
