Hero CBZ

Complete details of CBZ Motorcycle

Launched in India in 1999. CBZ is not in production now. Discontinued in 2005.

Launched in 1999, it was the first performance motorcycle of India. The CBZ was one of the models developed by Hero Honda. Until the launch of CBZ, there was nothing called a powerful motorcycle. For most of the Indians, motorcycles were something meant to travel from one place to another in an economic and most convenient way. The revolution of sports bike in India was started by Hero Honda CBZ, later take on by Bajaj Pulsar. Moreover, Hero Honda CBZ has launched way ahead of the time in India. It had to compete with the popular, 100cc, commuter motorcycles with high fuel efficiency. However, after ceasing the alliance with the Honda, the model was discontinued in 2005 followed by CBZ Xtreme. Later, Hero MotoCorp renamed the moniker to 'Xtreme', which doesn't have that extra flavour of CBZ.

The Hero Honda CBZ was powered by the original Honda 156.8cc, 4-stroke, single cylinder, SOHC engine which is a scaled down version of the famous CB series. It was an oversquare engine meeting the Euro1 standards with accelerator pump for superior pickup. Unlike other carburettors we have seen, the Keihin slide type carburettor used in the CBZ features larger spring operated nozzle to deliver richer air-fuel mixture into the combustion chamber to escalate the power delivery. The engine was mated to 5-speed constant mesh gearbox and delivered a maximum power of 12.5 bhp @ 8000 rpm and peak torque of 12.4 Nm @ 6500 rpm. It was the first 4-stroke bike India to get 5-speed gearbox. This motorbike had a top speed of 115kmph making it as one of the fastest bikes of those days. Moreover, it can go from 0 to 60kmph in 5seconds.

The CBZ features 12.5-litre fuel tank offering a minimum of 600 km range. The braking duties of the bike were managed by 240 mm Nissin disc brakes at the front and 130 mm drum brake at the rear. The suspension system consists of a hydraulic telescopic fork at the front and swing arm with hydraulic damper- 5-step adjustment system at the rear. Interestingly, it had a unique air injection system in the exhaust port, which introduces fresh air into the system to meet emission standards.

It Is the first performance bike from 4 stroke series. But a 100cc bike called LML ENERGY (100cc) 3valve engine 9bhp @9k rpm. Also were launched in 1999. It can also be a competitor for 150cc ones ( fiero and CBZ ). I own energy it can also reach 105+ km/hr and can stand with these 150cc not comparing the top speed but can be a competitor but consider it is 100cc not 150cc. Regarding features it have 3v , pinpoint breaks , self motor space , kill switch , rpm meter , widest tyre , chrome finished meter and headlight for classic look. Largest tank @that time 14L.
As I reached 95+ with pillion (total weight 135kg). Bike weight 115kg as u ride it u feel it is 150cc comparing power and comfortable. Also gives a mileage 75+ when is economy (ha) but 50+ sure as it has 2 Intake valve(first 3valve engine) so mileage less but more power for a 100cc till no 100cc 4 stroke can beat is even some 125. The main issue we fell that lack of 5th gear as it has good cruise speed. The best drum breaks at that time 130mm both and best stopping feel when apply break. This bike is from future (look the specs) it have a visor in front like (avenger) and many more for alterations.
But bike launched at wrong time (mainly at that time commuter bike and mileage minded so performance bike like CBZ fiero mine could not get good clutch.

I have a 1999 model CBZ. Done 65K Kms. A wonderful bike 20yrs ago with a disc brake, five gears,wide tyre etc. But, its head light is not multireflector type and not powerful to light our highways. I fitted CREE LED's as auxilary lights. Now highway rides are very bright enough and safe. If u maintain it well it will last long. TPFC wire from throttle to the carburettor gulps more fuel. If u remove it will give 10% more mileage. I get 62 and 50 kmpl in highway and city respectively at 4K rpm gear shifting in all gears. I replaced existing 14/46T front and rear sprockets with 15/40T sprockets. Now i can cruise at near 100kmph @6k rpm only similar to Karizma-R. Now Mileage is 67KMPL @60Kmph @ 3.75K rpm. That is gearing changed from 13.3kmph per 1K rpm to 16kmph per 1K rpm after sprocket change. Pick up slightly dropped but i didnt mind for pick up , i wanted cruising on highways.But if u connect back the TPFC cable it will be slightly better in pickup. Even with pillion bike doesn't struggle at 6K rpm 96kmph. It is smooth with very less vibrations than earlier. Recently i bought 2014 KarizmaR also as it had electric start for comfortable city use. CBZ is my love at first sight and kept as second vehicle now and i am not willing to sell, it is used on sundays. My review in mouthshut.com "Love At First Sight". My first vehicle hence the CBZclassic is being maintained well.

I have a CBZ 2000 model still burning the streets. Really expecting a relaunch of classic CBZ with same body design and engine upgrade with more power. Searched for some upgrades online, found a CBZ classic loaded with ZMA engine and fabulous paint job. It had front and rear disk too.

First model CBZ is my first and last choice. When I saw the add on national TV (DD). I was just crazy about this bike and still that craziness is there. I love CBZ only. Its just simply perfect bikes in all the way. I have a Karizma R but I only love CBZ.. If it come again on the market with the same looks I ll definitely buy it.. Still I used to ask when I visits Hero Showrooms..
By on 19-09-2017
I have never find any bike in the market which has the qualities that the first model cbz has, i still own the first model cbz many people have asked me whether i am selling my bike, and my answer is no, very comfortable to ride , well maintained ,its stats in 1 kick my bike is 16 years old still its the perfect, millage in TPFC mode is near to 35-40 depended on load and i normal mode 45-48, you get a perfect feel of drive when you drive at the speed of 30 and you get a thrilling speed of ride when u drive at a speed above 60, i love this bike very much, as some said above honda should launch this bike back in market and should make its parts available because there are lots many CBZ fans like me.

The first version of Hero Honda CBZ is one of the best 150cc bikes ever launched in India. The only problem was low mileage. But a real biker wont worry about low mileage.
