Check out these images from Gurgaon, the launch venue of the new Hero Honda Karizma ZMR PGM-FI which was launched yesterday.
Acc to the sources who were present at the launch, this bike has the same unchanged 223 cc engine as the Karizma R and it produces 17.6 bhp @7000 rpm. It is said that the bike is capable of attaining a top speed of 135 kmph with a torque range of 18.35Nm.
New Features include -
- Full Fairing
- Split Clip On Handle Bars
- Split rear grab rails
- New Colors
- PGM-FI (Programmable Fuel Injection)
- Mirrors mounted on the fairing
- New rear mud guard
- New headlamp and tail lamp which are now LED
- Fairing mounted front indicators
- New Graphics (Traditionally Hero Honda)
- Slightly re-profiled body work
- Gas Charged Rear Shock Absorbers
Gedi Junction’s take
Now, if you are among the Hero Honda/ZMA fans who were saving their money for the ZMR, you sure are going to be disappointed. This bike doesn’t look worth the money it demands (speculated price is Rs 10000 upwards of the the current Karizma R), if Hero Honda manages to price it near the Pulsar 220 DTSi (chances of which are very, very rare) there are chances that it may become popular.
If Hero Honda launched this bike in Semi-Faired status (Like the P220) it would have done wonders to the look. All said and done, its all in the hands of the Junta, how they perceive this one; otherwise, well, its a clear no no from our side! =)
