Black beast zmr 2014
9 years ago
Ashish Raina
Hi my name is ashish raina. I bought my karizma zmr 2014 on 29th sept 2014. Filled the tank full. Till 06th oct 2014 i had driven 233 km and tank is only half empty. Exact mileage is yet to be calculated but from current stats it looks i am getting the mileage of 33kmpl considering the fact that first service is yet to be done after 2 months or 500/750kms. I am driving it on an avg speed of 35-40km/hr as per the instruction given by the mechanic at the time of purchase. Only issue i am having with my bike is that while driving the weight of my body comes on my shoulders and it runs down till my hands. I had pulsar 180 before this bike and the sitting style is little bending as compared to pulsar. I accelerated my zmr till 60km/hr and it was stable and steady. Overall its a black beast!!!
pros
awesome looking, stable
cons
lacks little comfort

What's not to love Best mileage Top speed is equal to ktm rc 200 Comfortable as your bed .Just a little vibration in high speeds , numbs your hands within 2 hours.Speedy shifts and high acceleration are more than pulsar bikes . Engine is faithful and won't disappoint you in the worst situations.Hero,thanks.

Style horribly designed. Hero should launch this model in 2005.
Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox mileage is good. As performance concerned feel like 150 cc bike.
Ride quality & handling handling is ok. Comfortable to ride 40-50 kms only.
Final words hero should leave the bike manufacturing for india. And make only cycle, moped and entry level bike etc. Purchased this bike in january 2015 and sold within 4 months.

Zmr 2014 review after 7000 kms
8 years ago
Prabhat Rajput
Style in terms of styling zmr is second to none, though r15 fairing looks much better but zmr gives a big bike feel with excellent design of fairing.
Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox engine is calm and definitely more refined than previous zmr, but there are vibrations are high speed but you have admit all bikes does. Gear shift is smooth as always though sometimes while changing the gear in hurry neutral appears from nowhere. Fuel economy of bike is excellent. I am getting 37.6 In city(bangalore) and 42.8 On highways. I think for 223cc bike its a decent figure.
Ride quality & handling ride quality of bike is good but pillion seat is not very comfortable. Cushioning of rider seat is good. Seating position is new zmr is little aggresive compare to old zmr but overall its very decent. Handling of all hero bikes are always above par. Braking of bike could be its usp. Doesnt matter on what speed you are running you will always be comfortable while sudden braking. To be frank ride quality of bike and handling is really excellent. (Strictly not recommended for short height person).
Final words this is a great bike in this price tag. A good looking performance oriented tourer.
Areas of improvement head lamps are weak, fit and finish needs lots of improvement.
Pros
style, fuel economy, mid range pick up, balance, braking
cons
head lamps, pillion seat, weight, fitting

Style awsum. Its catches lots of attraction. People keep staring.
Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox awsum. Was confused what to buy pulsar 220f or re 350 electra or zmr 2014. Now company gives 70k kms warranty. And bajaj pulsar220 f only 30k. I own a pulsar 180 2006 model. But it has very high maintainence requirement. And service of auth bajaj station is miserable. No parts awailable most of time. My uncle have re 350 electra old model its awsum. But my friends who bought re new model have lots of issues regarding oil leaks and engine vibration. So on 7 nov i bought new zmr 2014 its awsum. Have driven only 150 kms. So did not go above 60 km/hour. There r no issues. Unlike old zmr gear shift is also smooth.
Ride quality & handling awsum. Pillion seat is bit high. My mom faces difficult while geating on it. But thats understood.
Final words awsum. Feels like heaven while riding. Truely a tourian bike.
Areas of improvement its give real time milege. It refresh every 10 sec. Sometime it shows 19 or 100 or 73 etc mostly its between 39 to 59 im ahm city traffic. Its useless practically. Company should provide milege per trip. Thats somewhat useful.

Style horribly designed. Hero should launch this model in 2005.
Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox mileage is good. As performance concerned feel like 150 cc bike.
Ride quality & handling handling is ok. Comfortable to ride 40-50 kms only.
Final words hero should leave the bike manufacturing for india. And make only cycle, moped and entry level bike etc. Purchased this bike in january 2015 and sold within 4 months.
Areas of improvement style, performance.
Pros
mileage
cons

Zmr 2014 review after 7000 kms
8 years ago

Style in terms of styling zmr is second to none, though r15 fairing looks much better but zmr gives a big bike feel with excellent design of fairing.
Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox engine is calm and definitely more refined than previous zmr, but there are vibrations are high speed but you have admit all bikes does. Gear shift is smooth as always though sometimes while changing the gear in hurry neutral appears from nowhere. Fuel economy of bike is excellent. I am getting 37.6 In city(bangalore) and 42.8 On highways. I think for 223cc bike its a decent figure.
Ride quality & handling ride quality of bike is good but pillion seat is not very comfortable. Cushioning of rider seat is good. Seating position is new zmr is little aggresive compare to old zmr but overall its very decent. Handling of all hero bikes are always above par. Braking of bike could be its usp. Doesnt matter on what speed you are running you will always be comfortable while sudden braking. To be frank ride quality of bike and handling is really excellent. (Strictly not recommended for short height person).
Final words this is a great bike in this price tag. A good looking performance oriented tourer.
Areas of improvement head lamps are weak, fit and finish needs lots of improvement.
Pros
style, fuel economy, mid range pick up, balance, braking
cons
head lamps, pillion seat, weight, fitting

Style awsum. Its catches lots of attraction. People keep staring.
Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox awsum. Was confused what to buy pulsar 220f or re 350 electra or zmr 2014. Now company gives 70k kms warranty. And bajaj pulsar220 f only 30k. I own a pulsar 180 2006 model. But it has very high maintainence requirement. And service of auth bajaj station is miserable. No parts awailable most of time. My uncle have re 350 electra old model its awsum. But my friends who bought re new model have lots of issues regarding oil leaks and engine vibration. So on 7 nov i bought new zmr 2014 its awsum. Have driven only 150 kms. So did not go above 60 km/hour. There r no issues. Unlike old zmr gear shift is also smooth.
Ride quality & handling awsum. Pillion seat is bit high. My mom faces difficult while geating on it. But thats understood.
Final words awsum. Feels like heaven while riding. Truely a tourian bike.
Areas of improvement its give real time milege. It refresh every 10 sec. Sometime it shows 19 or 100 or 73 etc mostly its between 39 to 59 im ahm city traffic. Its useless practically. Company should provide milege per trip. Thats somewhat useful.
Pros
everything
cons
did not find any drawback
