This time it's not just a sticker job, but it's really a serious upgrade. Really serious!! Some of the features which we can expect are -1) 223cc PGM-Fi engine, expected to produce 21bhp @ 7.5k rpm and 21.5 Nm torque @ 6.5k rpm.
2) As we can see, the machine would be sporting a full fairing. The full fairing also calls for a liquid cooled engine, but again, that needs to be seen.
3) Gold colored Engine Theme.
4) Clear front indicators.
5) Fairing mounted RVMs.
6) Split grab rails.
7) Clip-on Handle bars.
8) LED Tail-lamp.
9) Gas Reserve Shock rear suspension.
10) It's also being said that for the 2009 version, the Exhaust Silencer of the current version Karizma would be replaced with the Exhaust Silencer of the Hero Honda Hunk with some modifications.
11) There might be no change in the tyre specification, so the 2009 version might still be sporting the 100/90 MRF Zappers.
12) Rear disk brake.
Pricing of this machine would remain a big question of debate. I would say, with all this specs, the tag can easily read past the 1lakh mark. But think of it.... even if the price tag crosses 1lakh (which in all probability it might cross) it would still be a better deal than the Yamaha R15. Apart from the price figures, the performance figures would also be soughted after. The biggest question would be ..... would the Hero Honda Karizma ZMR PGM-fi would be able to beat Bajaj Pulsar DTS-i on performance numbers!!
Well everything said and done.... this is as good as a speculation can be as there is no official word from Hero Honda.

ReplyDeleteWith what's visible on the bike, and if the engine turns out to be liquid cooled one (owing to it being fully faired), I would think the price tag might read somewhere near to 1lakhs ..... couple of bucks over or below!!
sajal i'm 100% sure that its gonna be an air cooled engine.can't really say how i found out though ;)
