HERO Honda will soon launch a fuel-injected version of its 223cc Karizma. As is well known the company had announced at the launch of the Glamour FI plans to introduce other models in its line-up with Honda’s new age PGM-FI technology which includes its 150cc offering the Achiever as well. Needless to say, the Karizma which hitherto hasn’t been selling too well, will command a premium over the already pricey carburetted version.
Further, the bike is not expected to come overloaded with features like a rear disc brake besides self cancelling indicators as seen on arch rival Bajaj Auto’s 220cc fuel injected Pulsar. Which is expected to hit markets in a few months.
SOurce : Overdrive india
If HH launch at a sensible prize with the support of cheap and readily available spares at least on order basis will make this product more popular. But anyway , it will be well over the price of dts-fi because of royalty to be paid to Honda. And without jazzi gadgets , i think its gonna be another failure.

I feel Karizma is much more better n faster than P220. Its not the cc dat counts, It the Horse power n Torque dats make bike move faster which any of the Pulsar series lacks. I agree Pulsar got a good pick up, good looks n even good advertising co. do wich has bought its sales up. But techinically Karizma is much more better. Even more than this Pulsar is not at all a balanced bike. This is wat i feel. Self had driven Honda VTR, YAMAHA MTO, HONDA BLACK BIRD. Engines speak a lot. So b techinical n select ur bikes. For your good sake n make sure u wear Helmets.. Everyone’s got choice. Its upto you. GOOD LUCK.

in indian bikes market there are a huge gap, why cant the manufactures understand that there is a market potential of price range from 1 lakh to 5 lakhs. Yamaha and suzuki introduced super bike that is very high price.(bullet 1 lakh?? while we discuss about sexy and beautiful lady no no no to auntie). At the price of those super bikes i prefer to buy a sedan or SUV. No i am not talking a bout upgraded Karizam ( may be ZMR or ZRM) or pulsar. We want different new bikes.

once we discussed about bikes with my friends who drives bullet 350 and 500 i pointed out that why i dislike bullet is the pushrod, but that is the reasons they like bullet.

You call it a museum or a father or a mother(you may call it) or anything that you feel like. It does not make sense. If you are enticed to that particular noise, it’s alright. I have driven Thunderbird 350 cc. It is very nice and does very well at high speeds even(more than 120 kmph). My point is that they belong to different class. Why to compare?

Huh… bullet is the museum of indian bike.

That is a different class altogether. You can not compare bullet with Zma and likes. These bikes are quick and clocking more than 80 kmph in a jiffy gives you another satisfaction. Please don’t compare.

Bullet is father of all indian bikes

Pulsar 220 is the FASTEST indian and karizma is no match for it
