Hero Honda Karizma Review
December 21, 2006 - Category: Bike & Scooters | 9 Comments
Touching 2 extremes i.e. with a 223cc engine Hero Honda Karizma has the highest engine capacity in the Indian Bike market and it is also one of the lest fuel efficient bike in the Indian market. If you are looking for power, acceleration, speed and fuel consumption is not a problem then it is THE best bike available in the Indian market.
It is more of a touring bike then a racer. The engine does not heats even at high speed and the power delivery is very smooth. Hero Honda Karizma is not that good in its acceleration as compared to other high quality features but it goes well on high speeds. The bike feels less stressed even on long distances.
Riding posture is a bit sporty but comfortable. Karizma is relatively heavy and stable bike which is more due to long wheelbase that keeps it well planted to the ground even at high speeds. It uses one down and 4 up gears and the handling of the bike is quite simple even for people with average height.
It gives a mileage of 30-40 if driven properly which could be considered as poor in Indian scenario. Once you ride the bike you would appreciate the technology behind this bike and the mileage factor will seem immaterial.

The Fact that Karizma owners are not the one who would consider MILEAGE as an important factor when compared to its Price, Performance, Looks, Stability, Status recognition.
I have a Karizma, and in Worst Traffic Conditions of Pune, It gives a Mileage of 30 to 34 … which i feel is good enough. But the performance it gives is way too good for words …

ya its good to karizma is giving the best performs in India roads and the style of the bike was cool and the speed and the pickup was excellent and i thing coming to the engine capacity the should impure more cc and better speed to the pulsar 250 cc and i think the people who are using karizma they don’t think of the millage the oners of karizma they think of the speed

There is no doubt regarding the Hero Honda Karizma performance. But i would like to share one thing when it runs on 115km/hr speed then its rpm increases upto 6000 rpm after this at 115 km/hr speed and RPM increases upto 8000 but there is no increase in speed from 115km/hr at 6000rpm. please tell me what is the reason.
