An MY2004 Hero Karizma has been modified by
Incendiary Motorcycles as a café racer. The motorcycle gets a custom blue paint
scheme with white racing stripes.
The Hero Karizma café racer gets a new circular
headlamp, handlebar and a brown leather wrapped seat. The handlebar too gets
leather wraps of the same material. The circular headlamp along with bar-end
mirrors add a classic touch.
The fuel tank is a heavily reshaped unit while a new
LED taillamp finishes the short tail end. The rear seat cowl of the Hero
Karizma café racer (Hero Honda Karizma R back then) is detachable to reveal the
pillion seat. The heat wrap on the exhaust pipe adds a rugged look while the
canister is new. The tyres are chunkier, and the alloy wheels have been
replaced with spokes.
The Hero Karizma is one of the best tourers in the
segment. While low sales have plagued the Karizma brand, and Hero even
discontinued the Karizma recently, the company is said to be working on a new
version of the motorcycle.
