Hero Honda Karizma



The latest model to have graced the Indian tarmac is Hero Honda's latest bike, 223 CC Karizma, which with its updated technological inputs have made the bike favorite among bike lovers. Available with an awesome 223cc single cylinder, air cooled four stroke engine capable of producing optimum power of 17 bhp at 7000rpm , the bike is the latest milestone achieved by the Hero Honda motors. The sleek designing of Karizma is quiet similar to its Japanese version, the legendary & giant Honda's cult VFR 800. Be it the alloy die-cast wheels, tailpiece, front indicators, fairing, silencer unit, seat, panel shapes and instrument binnacle, everywhere the new model has been given a face lift with a dash of panache.

Boasting of a top speed of 125kph, the bike commendably performs at an approximately 100kph. While the beautifully designed mag wheels impart a very uncluttered look to the rear wheel, making the bike perfect & an instant eye catcher while gracing the roads.

  1. Some times we ignore the promotion freebies that come with the motor oil that we buy.. Recently i bought a Castrol promotion pack for my bike but wasn't informed by the dealer that the scratch card offer to enter the lucky draw to go to South Africa World cup games and the dealer has assured gifts that we can collect at the time of purchase. Make sure you ask your service dealers for the contest details if you buy one in the near future and collect your assured gift :)
