What do you think about the new #HeroKarizmaXMR? Will you buy it over the #YamahaR15 and the #KTMRC200? Do let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
Design is 10 on 10 it is getting hatred only because it is Hero... Some people has to come out from mindset that hero cannot produce good looking bike.. They are wrong it all started from xtreme 160r to xpulse 200, xoom scooter and so on...
I was the proud owner of Karizma R of 2013. Inspite listening to lot of people that Hero lost its charm after parting with Honda, lot suggested to go with pulsar 220f. But my heart was always pounding to select for Karizma. It was an amazing experience for 5 years with it. Refined, cheap to maintain, comfort to ride. It is still used by my one of my contact with sealed engine which nearly crossed 90000. If hero kept the same strategy on this XMR, then this will be the best motorcycle. Yet another legend from hero. Its not just speed or features i look, the feel, the heart of the toy. I still want to go with karizma above those 2 if i have the choice as I have already using bigger machine now. Hope i may get hold of this karizma soon.
I don't like R15 because it suits to tapori bikers because it's design is also tapori type. But now the karizma makes sense to gentle and smart bikers.
We don’t think the R15 caters to the riders that you mentioned. It’s a very good looking and appealing motorcycles. That said, the Karizma XMR is a good option too.
Highly time for TVS to upgrade their 200cc engine, i am happy that karizmas legacy is being carried out, but it's characteristics has been changed, which is nominal because of the current market situation and trends back then was a different story. I am heavily excited for TVS to launch their newly developed 200cc bike with 6 gears, thus matching the duke series
People expecting USD on this bike. Does it really matter considering it's a 200 cc bike with merely 163 Kg weight? I think USD are overrated for small capacity machines.
The Main USP of the Origanal Hero Honda Karizma Back in the Day was Being "Hatke" some thing Different , a Big 223cc Engine Fared Bike when everybody else was Riding little 95 to 100cc Bikes. The Old Karizma was different from all the other bikes , that's why people dreamed about it. But Now In 2023, present times, Every body is having a 160 to 250cc bike. Its like owning a 100cc bike back in the day, Nothing special. Having a dual channel ABS, Fared, Liquid cooled engine , top speed of about 140kmph has just have become the basic Necessity that people Expect and is absolutely Normal.. so by launching a 210cc bike in 2023 in a segment where there is a sea of Other 200cc Motorcycle around, all competing with Each Other, does not make the Karizma XMR stand out from the crowd and thereby continue its legacy. Hero should have given at Least a 250 to 300+cc engine with a Minimum of 30 to 35ps. Price should not have been a Concern for Hero because Karizma was always a premium Brand and people wont hesitate to pay that extra buck...
Bang on. They should have used X440 engine with different tuning. Karizma should have neutral comfortable ergonomics with tube handle bars instead of clip on and unibody seat. The looks should have been inspired from Suzuki Bandit, Fazer etc.
@@SurajSinghTomarAryaThe X440 uses a long-stroke motor, which isn’t suited for a sports tourer like Karizma. It’s not to possible use the 440cc engine and change its tuning for the Karizma. The sport tourer segment warrants a new engine.
hero has tried to target the middle and above middle class riders. The thing which u r talking about always comes with a risk whether people will buy it or not. and i guess if this turns out to be successful hero is gonna surely upgrade this and xpulse to higher cc
The design of the 2003 to 2013 Karizma (not the ZMR) was some next level stuff. The looks of the latest model is nothing when compared to the 1st gen. I wish Hero relaunched it as a less expensive version.
the first gen was a gem no flaws in its design they had drawbacks like narrow tires and a commuterish handlebar the new version is good looking bike except its headlight.....hero totally messed up it
150cc bike like R15 cannot be compared with 210cc bike Karizma XMR. Different creatures cannot be compared. Karizma is the King 👑. I owned Karizma R and it is truly best ever motorcycle ridden on Indian roads ❤
I guess it’s time now for me to get over Karizma because I was expecting more … I booked this one as well but I may not get it this time. My Karizma happy memories are secured with R and ZMR. It is really hard and emotional for me to say goodbye to someone you love so much but I guess that's how life is you need to move on. Hero has done a superb job with the new Karizma and I Wish all the best to New Gen Karizma Owner Always Game Jet Set Go !!
New Karizma is amazing but nothing can beat the og Karizma R. Still a proud owner of 2006 Karizma. Why move on bro? Bike looks nice and specs also are nice. Maybe we should wait for the pro variant or the bigger capacity version of this bike.
1. We managed to see 130 on the display during our test. The bike could do a higher speed. 2. It IS an upgrade from a 150cc. Not an R15 but surely a 150cc commuter. Hope this helps.
@@neilnair6089 You will easily Outride this bike and Most people get 200s as their first bike after getting experience from their parents bikes I think if you already own a 150cc bike it's better to go with bikes like RR310,RTR310 or 350s maybe 390s as well
maine pahle hi comment kiya tha ki 210cc engine se 25bhp 30nm nikalna possible nehi hain reply from bikewale "yeh ek sports tourer hoga " kay hua 30 se 20.4 pe kaise ageya
Even z650 has telescopic suspension and people buy that bike on 6 lakhs but they don't purchase this bike and the main reason is the company HERO. This is really true that indians likes everything except indian brands 😆.
6:48. It also looks like a Pulsar especially the back side. If you are upgrading from 150, I would straight go to Triumph 400. I wonder if Suzuki are able to sell any SF250s
Sir do u think Hero should also have offered some special discount of say 5000 for those who will exchange their old karizma to buy this new karizma like me ?? Hero must also reward the karizma loyalists because we are the ones who have kept the brand alive for these many years after discontinuation.
@@BikeWaleOfficial The reason why I'm so critical about it is because I own a Karizma R, precisely in yellow. 1.7L for a 200cc bike sure sounds like cost cutting (sarcasm). This will never be the Karizma it once was in terms of pricing.

People say karizma changed everything and all. No one says how costly it was and all because of monopoly. It was pulsar who bought performance for the masses
Everything is good but I think after a couple of years its plastic body will vibrate which is a speciality of Hero motocorp. Pulsar NS 200 is a better choice.
I can understand if hero markets the visor as a feature , but i don't understand why bike Wale does the same, while i understand you are essentially juz a glorified web scraper for bikes, atleast your youtube channel should review things objectively. that visor is useless ...

The yellow Karizma ad was from 2007. In the 2003 ad a red Karizma was used

aur kya tereko ninja ya ducati de dete bhai karizma mai 1 lakh 70 mai
2 Corrections-
1. Top speed will be much higher than 130 more like 140-145
2. It's not a good upgrade from 150cc, It's a good beginner bike tho.

Okay 👍🏼
Top speed 145 touched, riders weight was 72kg
If my weight 45kg think of speed 🔥
Top speed 149 touched already
The old Karishma was not that good looking to me but this one , I like, I just don't like fairings so fingers crossed for the new Hunk.
6:48. It also looks like a Pulsar especially the back side. If you are upgrading from 150, I would straight go to Triumph 400.

Whats ur opinion. To sale 2011 karizma R and buy this XMR. Is it good
It is very good. Do take a test ride and decide.

90-100kmph should be the comfortable cruising speed!
@@BikeWaleOfficialreally that’s a really nice cruising speed

Yamaha r15 engine still looks more refine, with better mileage and overall, just my opinion.

Did you test both bikes back to back?
Bro can tell level of refinement from pictures and videos

@@pratik.jaiswaryou should understand inflation as well.
@@pratik.jaiswarthere is little to no use for a usd
It’s a design point in the lower cc bikes
No refinement at 50-80 kmph is a missed approach by hero. Had this been honda this would be fire.
I wish for white 🤍 colour should be option
Maybe in the future. Let’s hope for the best!
A single projector like the Pulsar F250 and slightly thin DRLs would have made the front looks much better !
F250 yuck😂
R15m or the ktc rc 200 over this bike?? Heck yess, without a doubt. Take my money 💸 😂😂😂😂

Karizma is an emotion ❤🔥
Vibration after 5000 RPM
Vibration may go away after 1 or 2nd service
Possibly. However, the vibrations aren’t a dealbreaker.
For a single cylinder bike this vibration is normal
Better than rc 200 and R15...
It’s a very good and versatile alternative to these bikes
