Hero Honda has launched the revamped version of its performance
motorcycle, the Karizma ZMR. Introduced at a price of Rs 91,000
ex-showroom Delhi, the new bike will go up against the likes of other
performance bikes in the Indian market such as the Bajaj Pulsar 220 DTSi
and the Yamaha YZF-R15.
Hero
Honda has ensured that the new bike is not just a cosmetic upgrade, but
the changes in the exteriors and the design are major and will
establish the Karizma ZMR as an all-new bike. The ZMR now features a
full fairing that clads the entire engine to pronounce the big-bike
feel. Redesigned rear quarter panels and an all new LED taillamp round
up the design changes on the new bike.
The
engine sees a mild power upgrade from 16.8PS to 17.6PS, but now features
fuel-injection that replaces the carburetor. Taking a cue from its
competitors, the new bike has also been fitted with an oil-cooler, which
should take some of the heat off the completely clad yet air-cooled
engine.
On
the features front, the new bike sports clip-on handlebars and an
all-new digital speedo-tacho unit. The bike seems well kitted for its
price, but the competition seems to have a headstart in terms of
technology and outright performance. We should be getting our test bike
soon, so watch out for a complete road test with performance figures
