Hero Honda Karizma

Hero Honda Karizma is a top-end bike from the Hero Honda stable and targets the niche section of customers that prefer performance to economy.

Karizma comes with a 223cc single cylinder, air-cooled, four stroke engine that packs a maximum power of 17bhp at 7000rpm. Apart from breaking the 200cc barrier, the bike breaks fresh grounds in the acceleration front. Karizma conquers the four-second barrier for zero to sixty kph, doing it 3.8 seconds.

On the styling front, Karizma draws inspiration from Honda's cult VFR 800, the legendary and largest selling superbike from the Japanese giant. Striking similarities exist in the alloy die-cast wheels, the tailpiece, the front indicators, the fairing, the silencer unit, seat, panel shapes and instrument binnacle.

The Karizma comes with factory-fitted mag wheels and the long wheelbase at 1355mm provides stability to the bike. The motorcycle has a top speed of 125kph and performs commendably at speeds around 100kph. The Karizma is equipped with a massive 15-litre fuel tank (FT) with a 2-litre reserve.

The Karizma ensures excellent braking with the 276mm disc up front (largest so far) and the 130mm rear drum brakes. The mag wheels give a very un-cluttered look to the rear wheel.

Hero Honda Glamour-Fi

The Hero Honda Glamour-Fi is a trendsetter in Indian two-wheeler industry for its path breaking fuel-injection technology. Fuel-injection technology offers superior and consistent engine performance with improved drivability, lower emissions, enhanced fuel economy and extended engine life.

The PGM-FI feature (Programmed Fuel Injection) in Glamour-Fi is basically a computer controlled electronic fuel injection system that scans critical engine operating conditions through sensors and provides input to the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) to inject the accurate amount of fuel as per the requirement. Thus the new technology eliminates the need for a carburetor.

Apart from fuel-injection, the Glamour-Fi comes loaded with other features such as a Bank Angle Sensor and Malfunction Indicator Lamp. The sensor is an important safety feature that cuts off the fuel supply and ignition if the bike tips over while diagnoses any malfunction of sensors and indicates the same to the rider.

The Glamour-Fi comes with a four-stroke, single cylinder, air-cooled engine that generates a displacement of 124.8cc. The bike features the standard suspension set-up of telescopic hydraulic fork at the front and a swing arm with hydraulic shock absorbers at the rear.
