Hi guys!...i have a hero honda karizma, act its been 8 mnths now, reg the bike I wud like to say tht its got gr8 looks(can be modified to make it look mre sexier!...depends hw u do it...???)its gt a gr8 pickup and a gud top end also..i touched 135kmph on it ..phew!...hmm!..yes the bike parts r expensive n its mre on a delicate part, but tht also depends hw u ride it..i mean if u r the person who drops the bike every now n thn, then prob this bike is not for u, otherwise its just as gr8 as one can think.u just have to be careful reg tht otherwise the bike does not give u n e prob(mind u it needs an oscassional maintainence at the HH workshop)try to keep this bike one hand because many will try to drive it differently(personal exp-coz its a karizma n u r local frnds/mates wud like to ride it or test it to glory which may include in them givin full throttle, not riding in gear to gear ratio)which may ruin u r bike, The drawbacks of this bike is tht its got a weak horn(somewht like scooty)i had to get it replaced, thin rear tyres(does not holds the grip of the bike well in wet conditions n gravel/mud)and thirdly but never the least-The mileage!!!...it returns a mere 25-28kmpl.wait a sec I knw a couple of guys wnt agree wit me who also own a karizma sayin tht my karizma returns me 35-40kmpl...thts because they must be drivin such a bike like a splendor...Cmon grow up guys!...whr r u goin to put all tht power in to???...n for god’s sake if u go in for a powerful bike u talk about power not mileage and if u talk about mileage regarding karizma thn prob u must buy a splendor.but yes!...the mileage had to be mre thn wht it offers(i wish!..par kuch paane ke liye kuch khona padta hai..right???)..the price tag of this bike is also high(for obvious reasons-chk bike specifications)..one mre drawback which I think is tht the rear suspensions are hard...(i think!)but I really dont know...cos I have to chk the suspensions of another karizma for tht....the plus points of the bike are-good halogen headlights, good digital meters like tripometer, clock, etc, looks, pickup, top end(speed), etc.i guess my personal review about my bike may help many peple in buying this bike....all in all its a awesome bike!...so happy riding;)
Pros : good looks, pickup, speed, digital meters
