@yogeshmori_ It’s a good balance between soft and stiff. Over bad roads the rear suspension absorbs everything, while during aggressive riding it doesn’t bounce too much to offer stability around corners.

@TheShukladhvaj 9 ай бұрын

About the power delivery yes the delivery is quite linear lower down but push it beyond 6k and it starts pulling very aggresively is what i have felt. Also one reason is the calm exhaust note pn the Suzuki. Because the exhaust note doesnt change much in the lower rpm so it creates a false perception that it isnt pulling. This is what i have felt while riding it.

@FTRClub 9 ай бұрын

The gears in Suzuki are quite tall and that’s what gives the feel of bike taking time to reach higher speeds. The Karizma is quicker of the line and reaches higher speeds faster, however, the Suzuki attains better top speed of above 150kmph and stays calm even then.

Im 21 and getting the karizma on my birthday in November. Should I put a transparent wrap to protect it from minor scratches? I and very emotional about bikes since my father owns a cbr 250 and it's in really good condition, so I want to protect mine too.

@FTRClub 9 ай бұрын

First of all, convey my 🙏🏼 to your dad. I’ve owned a CBR 250R in the past and that bike for me is a benchmark when it comes to single cylinder quarter litre bikes. Regarding the PPF coating on Karizma, yet it’s definitely advisable as not only it protects the plastic parts from stones and tiny pebbles that get thrown while riding, it will also protect in case of minor falls. It may cost you between 5000-9000 ₹ but it’s worth every penny. I hope this helps buddy. Ride hard and ride safe.

Karizma being a flagship product from Hero is worth buying. They have tested the bike thoroughly and the best part is it comes with a 5 year warranty on the engine. If I were to buy a new bike, I’d pick the Karizma right now, considering there’s nothing else on the market that offers such incredible value for money.

What about the millage difference and engine refinement, does Hero feels smoother than Gixxer? And also, as Hero is cheaper to maintain due to low cost spares, but which one would be more pocket friendly, as Gixxer is also low maintenance bike? Please suggest 🙏

@FTRClub 9 ай бұрын

Both an equally smooth. Suzuki has a character up top while Karizma is in the mid range. Part wise, yeah the Hero will be slightly cheaper to maintain due to lower cost of spares. However, Suzuki internals will have a significantly better life overall. The biggest advantage of the Karizma is the service network reach, which is so huge that literally no other manufacturer can match. I believe the Suzuki should be more pocket friendly on a long run as that engine and platform has been tried and tested for years now. Karizma being a new offering still has a lot of ground to cover.
