KARIZMA vs P200 vs P220-Some interesting facts.
Lets keep aside the usual trumpery topics like the Looks,Aesthetics,Obsoleteness,Gismos etc regarding the three Bikes,,,,Instead, We are here to talk about Power,Brilliance of engineering,Reliability,and above all-,The real on-road Performance or The PRAGMATISMS regarding the three bikes..... Lets talk like Boys......not like wranglers. Note:All the figures referred here are taken from the OVERDRIVE magzine-September-07... So there is no reason to doubt the credibility of the figures. Performance Specifications. Karizma / Pulsar 200 / Pulsar 220-Dtsi MaxPower-16.9ps /18ps /20ps Max Torque-18.35Nm /17.17Nm /19.12Nm 0-60- 4.70s / 0-60- 4.55s/ 0-60-4.43s 0-80-7.34s / 0-80-7.52s / 0-80-7.47s 0-100-14.05s / 0-100- 13.46s / 0-100-13.11s Overall Mileage-43.5kmpl /40.6kmpl/38.5 Top speed-125.6kmph / 118.7kmph /127.19kmph Kerb weight-150kg /145kg /150kg Price-Rs 74,000 /Rs-65,500 /Rs-83,500
>>>>> Point No.1)
Take a look at the power output figure of the three bikes. Obviously Karizma is nothing in front of both 200 and 220 .Moreover P220 wins with a big margin.
>>>>Point No2) Now take a look at the 'real on-road' performance figures. 0-60- P220 with MAX gain of .27sec !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 0-80 KZMA with MAX gain of .18sec !!!!!!! 0-100- P220 with MAX gain of .94 sec !!!!!!!!! Top whack- P220 with MAX gain of 1.59kmph !!!!!!!!! Mileage- KZMA with a MAX gain of 5kmpl Its time to think deliberately.... For instance compare the performance of KZMA and P200- Neither the 5kg lighter body or the extra 1.1ps is helping P200 to win the scene.
Else consider the acclaimed value for money of P220- After paying 8750 bucks extra fore the P220 what im getting is a .94sec's(Max) gain in acceleration and a 1.54kmph higher top speed(!!!!!!!) which is NEGLIGIBLE in the real tarmac world.(Just leave the fuel efficiency factor aside.).. It is vivid from the test figures that,though P200 as well as P220 poccess technical advantages like extra BHP,Fuel Injecter,Oil cooler,DTSi.,Lighter kerb weight etc etc,they are just struggling to gain the ground....Meanwhile P200 just fight hard to the gravell..... Remember the Bells and Whistles affirming the ' futuristic technology' of P220?? Now the real question is,,,, a)What the @#$% did u slackers gain with those high end,ultra advance,super boasted technology?????? b)What do the piteous customers who pay the extra 8750 bucks get????? Is the answer- A gain in acceleration of .94sec's(maximum) and a 1.54kmph higher top speed and a lose in 5kmpl ??? Or is it the the 'gismos and gadgets' that comes with the bike??(save for the rear disc-the only practical advantage i see in P220) Else do you have a trouble free history/reputation to claim about???? BULL @#$%....
Again,according to the OverDrive test report, KZMA still outscore the P220 in the refinement stakes,especially past 6000 rpm. Every bike entusiasist will admit that the quality and refinement of KZMA engine/gearbox is impeccable,especially evident if you over cook the engine.Where as the Pulsar is a "renowned looser" in this game of quality. After ridden hard for few months,all the Pulsars including the 200 looses its performance significantly and even clamber to catch up with an equally abused Unicorn. I am not trying to lay my claims here, but...these are just FACTS... Bajaj....U gotta be kidding us......aint u ???Well to be sincere I am also a true blue Indian and always wanted to see at least one Indian company to come up technically superior some day,,,, Big sales figure and attractive commercial ads alone doesn't mean the company is superior ..does it???.... Instead of pointing out their flaws and make them draw out quality products,lot of tomfools are praising them without any noesis.... Do u really think all the Indians live in a 'blunt trauma' like ur regular customers???? Ofcourse your falling sales figure says -WE JUST DONT..
>>> Point No3) Lets see what the 'wise asses' will do!!!! With the saved extra 8750 bucks,and 5kpl efficiency gain,we can terrifically perfo tune the Karizma's to a REAL BEAST..... Here is the list of parts that go into the cart with the saved money. 1)A branded free flow Silencer-Rs1250 2)Big size Carb - Rs 3000 3)NGK Iridium Plug- Rs 700 4)NGK HT cable- Rs700 4)K&N- Rs 1600 5)Head face Shaving,Port Polishing-Rs1000 6)Bigger sprocket- Rs 500
Point No4) You may have a doubt that how effective/efficient these modes can be. Check out this video clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vw9LLn_BS2w of my Karizma put on Dyno which has undergone just a MILD perfo tuning job. In the end part of the video,the graph shows the bike easily 'crossing' 145kmph mark.... Now thats what we call BRILLIANT ENGINEERING....
