You could call it the second coming for the Honda Karizma; and tell you what it is coming with a big bang- three new bikes and they will roar on the Indian roads in 2009. And, the new variants of Karizma are fuming to challenge the Bajaj Pulsar 220 DTS-i vehicles. But the Karizma ZMR PGM Fi has been unveiled and the sparkling hunk will come heavy on the rest of the market brands. The Karizma ZMR PGM Fi was under covers and was a highly guarded secret, which is not formally launched but much to the delight of all you bike lovers the photographs of this charming machine has been exposed. Well, well, the photos are just enough to pound your hearts and the existing bike makers will surely chewing their nails for this monster will swallow of them. At least that is what the spy photos suggest.
What does the ZMR PGM Fi reveal:
The ‘white ghost’ is a true killer and sports an undisputable style and looks that will compel many heads to turn for not just a second look but also many more looks. It will in fact be a love at first sight. So one thing is certain the Karizma ZMR PGM Fi has already won many hearts with its classy looks. The evident part from the pictures is that the Karizma ZMR PGM Fi is adorned with full fairing, re-crafted body panel and of course it is powered by fuel injection.
The Karizma ZMR PGM Fi is featuring twin rear shock suspension, which could be a disadvantage and probably a monoshock suspension would have just worked fine for the bike. Yamaha R15, Fazer and FZ 16 all feature monoshock suspension and maybe ZMR Fi should have followed the suit, which could have worked well towards the benefit of the bike. Nevertheless, the bike still looks amazing. The performance and power output review can be determined only after the official launch of the vehicle. And if the bike tat seems so dashing and solid the price could be just spoil the party. All said and done the Karizma ZMR PGM Fi bike is still eagerly awaited and all you bike connoisseurs hold your breath to welcome this splendid machine.VEHICLE SUMMARY
