Karizma ZMR (2009-2012)
Karizma ZMR (2012-2014)
Karizma ZMR V2 (2014-2016)
Hero launched the Karizma ZMR in September 2009 — India's first fully-faired motorcycle with Programmed Fuel Injection. Through its entire production run including the 2014 restyling, all Karizma ZMR models share the same in-tank fuel pump assembly (OEM: 16700-KWF-951). This eAuto assembly is a direct OEM-spec replacement for the complete production run from 2009 to 2016, compatible with both the original Hero Honda badged ZMR and the post-split Hero MotoCorp badged V2. Every unit is tested for correct fuel pressure and electrical function before dispatch from eAuto.co.in.

❓ FAQ
A: Yes. The 2014 ZMR received updated bodywork, clip-on handlebars, and a new instrument cluster — but the 223cc engine and fuel tank carried over unchanged. The same OEM pump (16700-KWF-951) fits all ZMR production from 2009 to 2016.
A: Yes to both. When Hero and Honda split in 2012, Hero rebranded the ZMR under Hero MotoCorp — but the mechanical specifications including the fuel pump were unchanged. This assembly fits ZMR bikes badged Hero Honda as well as Hero MotoCorp.
A: No. The Karizma R used a carburettor — it has no fuel pump. The ZMR was the fuel-injected variant. Confirm your model before ordering.

⚠️ When to Replace
The Karizma ZMR is now 10–15+ years old for most owners. Fuel pump failure is one of the most common issues reported by ZMR riders and is often the first sign the bike is due for a fuel system overhaul.
🔩 Installation Notes
Tank Access: The ZMR uses an in-tank pump under the fuel tank. Drain the tank completely and remove it before accessing the pump. Take care not to damage the sender unit wiring during removal — the connector is often brittle on older bikes.
Pre-2012 vs Post-2012 (Badge Change): Despite the brand rebranding from Hero Honda to Hero MotoCorp in 2012, the fuel tank and pump assembly are mechanically identical. No fitment difference — same installation procedure applies to all years.
2014 Restyled ZMR: The 2014 update changed the body panels, handlebars, and instrument cluster. The fuel tank design and pump access procedure are unchanged from earlier ZMRs.
Old Fuel / Gumming: If the bike has been parked long-term, flush the fuel tank before fitting the new pump. Residual varnish or sediment from stale petrol will shorten the life of the new assembly significantly.
