I remember my cousin had the original Karizma back in the early 2000s (2003 or 2004 it was I think) and as a kid I used to be so in awe of that bike! While this bike has a decent design language, somehow it does not evoke the same feeling I had as a kid when I first saw that OG Karizma!

[@motorinc]

It can also be thought of as your baseline having increased @MrSMK21. Back then, it was probably the biggest bike that you'd seen until then but now that's likely not the case for the new Karizma.

The bike feels very good. Owning this for 2 months I can say the only drawback is Hero not used to sell premium bikes.

Get the later model. Atleast bs4. Bs3 had heating issues. Also the seating position is uncomfortable. Better get duke 🤷‍♀️

They're reliable but they're pretty finicky about maintenance so you cannot slack off on it. This is also why buying used means having the patience to see loads of RCs before you find a clean, well-kept example. Assume ₹20,000 _max_ per year to cover all of your maintenance and insurance etc, but perhaps not tyres.

We don't think of it like that @Techno_Babble. Fixing the quality shouldn't take the price too higher than what it is right now.

I remember when OG Karizma was launched, i was in the 6th standard in school and from the window of my classroom, i can clearly see the pan shop on the road. And one guy used to bring that Karizma (peacock blue color) there and i always admired that bike from my clasroom.

Hi Team, just wanted to ask...I am thinking of putting a tooth lesser front sprocket on my Vstrom sx 250 as I wanted a better acceleration and do not care much about the top end....what are your views, should I do it?

[@motorinc]

You can certainly try it, Varun. Just remember that front sprockets make dramatic changes to the power delivery and it may be too much - it's worth trying because it's inexpensive. Don't go below 14 teeth, that makes the chain take a very sharp u-turn and that can increase wear and tear. If you want to fine-tune (as opposed to dramatic change) the delivery, adding teeth to the rear sprocket is a better bet.

You are playing villian role for auto industry 😂😂😂 How many people may have cancelled their purchase decision just because of you 😅

They shouldn't @chetanudang3620. Always take a test ride regardless of what we have to say about it.

MotorInc’s videos feels like “Top Gear episodes”, and but at the same time some Elliot’s or Robert Frost’s great motor poems being recited by some great capable sportsmen! Reading a sports newspaper..u may say.

That's high praise @sao_rav! Thank you.
