  • Never purchase hero ignitor.

    6 years ago


    Abhishek

    I purchased hero ignitor in June 2014. Buying experience was good but after 1 year i felt that purchasing this bike was the biggest mistake. The brake is horrible. Pickup is very slow and vibrates very much at 70 to 80 km per hour speed. After that i sold this bike at only rs 30000 and purchased bajaj pulsar 180 dtsi & now i am very much satisfied with my pulsar.

  • Hero ignitor little brother of hero karizma

    6 years ago


    Amit Prajapati

    1, buying experience from hero motocorp will be vary from showroom to showroom.

    2, riding a ignitor is gives feels of hero karizma (old model), gives comfort to rider but for pillion rider it may a hurt their seat. If you are riding with elder (parents), than they may face problem in arranging themselves on pillion rider seat (as the height is more than normal bikes).

    3, driving hero ignitor is amazing, 125 cc engine will definitely gives a better feel when you accelerate. Pick up is awesome, no vibration till 80 km/h. You can easily overtake the other vehicles on highways. About average its solely depends on how you ride your bike. In general city riding will easily gives you 45-48 km/liter average and on highways it can reach upto 56-58 km/liter. I am riding since 2013 and in 2017 i just changed a battery. So, its maintenance free. Suspension is also giving good ride comfort.

    In looks 9/10 rating. Tough fiber plastic gives a good protection and style. Headlight design and outer body looks are awesome.

    4, good service and response from hero motocorp. Bike is almost a maintenance free and you wont find any on road breakdown.

    5. Pros: good looks, performance, power, stylish.

    cons: average riding comfort.

    Ajiz L Tamboli

    I bought it on the occasion of dussera and my birthday in 2016, it was lovely experience. I ridden it on highways , bad roads , off road on the mountains I always feel like the bike is in control also the suspension of the bike too good i wasn't expected such good before it . I had bought it due to its looks . I was in love with its looks. I beat pulsar 150 , shine , glamour , shine sp in the racing. It's performance was best in class in the 125cc categories. It gives mileage of 55-65 .If you drives 80-110 km/h on the highways it gives mileage of 55 & if you drives 45-60 km/h then it gives 65 kmpl of mileage. It took it upto 116 km/h on highway.
    Pros - performance
    mileage
    looks
    comfort
    braking
    Cons- Build Quality
    Maintenance
    Worst Hero Servicing Centre.

    5 years ago


    Neeraj Patel

    Mileage is good, sitting gives comfort but its arrangement is bad .Looks gives us proud pickup too good,digital metre is best.Makes less sound. If we maintain it, its performance increases the combination of control handle and headlight is awesome. Worst bike in terms of carriage.Best bike for long tour . Buying price is also affordable.The whole body is made from plastic greater chances for breakages.

  • Best for city rides

    2 years ago


    Naveen Kumar

    I own this bike since 2013 and completed 65K km till date. According to me, this is the best bike in 125 cc and good for city rides. It shares the same engine with bs3 shine but got 5 gears from unicorn 150. Except fairing parts, all the engine parts are still easily available in the market because of shine.
    The only downside is its performance on highway and uncomfortable hard seat. I added extra cushion to seat and also used Unicorn chain kit which has 15T sprocket at front rather than 14t stock. This increases top speed, cruising speed and also mileage of bike. This engine is not available in the market on any bike because honda upgraded its engine on shine. But parts are still available. Hero should plan the relaunch of this same bike with a new higher Cc engine 150 or 160. This bike is very nimble in city rides and an excellent choice for quick spins and also grabs attention.

    Tips for other riders

    For those who own this bike, use CB unicorn 150 chain kit (15T sprocket). It will increase cruising speed and mileage because fuel prices are very high. And don't worry about using this chain kit. It wont cause any problems to engine. Because the original bike stunner was launched with 16T sprocket on its FI version while hero used only 14T on carb variant. So 15T is still good and works well.

    Hello friends, this is my second bike hero ignitor. I owned this bike for past 3 year covered upto 30000km, this bike have good looking styles.Bike pickup is average and with pillion pick up is not good. Engine is smooth and sound less. If you ride this bike up-to 30km continuously your back will pain. This bike best for daily riding up-to 20km not more than that. Mileage if you ride with 45km/hr speed it gives 50km/ltr. Spares are not available in any local market. Overall bike ok if you maintain it properly.

  • Never purchase hero ignitor.

    6 years ago


    Abhishek

    I purchased hero ignitor in June 2014. Buying experience was good but after 1 year i felt that purchasing this bike was the biggest mistake. The brake is horrible. Pickup is very slow and vibrates very much at 70 to 80 km per hour speed. After that i sold this bike at only rs 30000 and purchased bajaj pulsar 180 dtsi & now i am very much satisfied with my pulsar.

  • Hero ignitor little brother of hero karizma

    6 years ago


    Amit Prajapati

    1, buying experience from hero motocorp will be vary from showroom to showroom.

    2, riding a ignitor is gives feels of hero karizma (old model), gives comfort to rider but for pillion rider it may a hurt their seat. If you are riding with elder (parents), than they may face problem in arranging themselves on pillion rider seat (as the height is more than normal bikes).

    3, driving hero ignitor is amazing, 125 cc engine will definitely gives a better feel when you accelerate. Pick up is awesome, no vibration till 80 km/h. You can easily overtake the other vehicles on highways. About average its solely depends on how you ride your bike. In general city riding will easily gives you 45-48 km/liter average and on highways it can reach upto 56-58 km/liter. I am riding since 2013 and in 2017 i just changed a battery. So, its maintenance free. Suspension is also giving good ride comfort.

    In looks 9/10 rating. Tough fiber plastic gives a good protection and style. Headlight design and outer body looks are awesome.

    4, good service and response from hero motocorp. Bike is almost a maintenance free and you wont find any on road breakdown.

    5. Pros: good looks, performance, power, stylish.

    cons: average riding comfort.

    I bought it on the occasion of dussera and my birthday in 2016, it was lovely experience. I ridden it on highways , bad roads , off road on the mountains I always feel like the bike is in control also the suspension of the bike too good i wasn't expected such good before it . I had bought it due to its looks . I was in love with its looks. I beat pulsar 150 , shine , glamour , shine sp in the racing. It's performance was best in class in the 125cc categories. It gives mileage of 55-65 .If you drives 80-110 km/h on the highways it gives mileage of 55 & if you drives 45-60 km/h then it gives 65 kmpl of mileage. It took it upto 116 km/h on highway.
    Pros - performance

    Cons- Build Quality

    Mileage is good, sitting gives comfort but its arrangement is bad .Looks gives us proud pickup too good,digital metre is best.Makes less sound. If we maintain it, its performance increases the combination of control handle and headlight is awesome. Worst bike in terms of carriage.Best bike for long tour .

  • Best for city rides

    2 years ago


    Naveen Kumar

    I own this bike since 2013 and completed 65K km till date. According to me, this is the best bike in 125 cc and good for city rides. It shares the same engine with bs3 shine but got 5 gears from unicorn 150. Except fairing parts, all the engine parts are still easily available in the market because of shine.
    The only downside is its performance on highway and uncomfortable hard seat. I added extra cushion to seat and also used Unicorn chain kit which has 15T sprocket at front rather than 14t stock. This increases top speed, cruising speed and also mileage of bike. This engine is not available in the market on any bike because honda upgraded its engine on shine. But parts are still available. Hero should plan the relaunch of this same bike with a new higher Cc engine 150 or 160. This bike is very nimble in city rides and an excellent choice for quick spins and also grabs attention.

    Tips for other riders

    For those who own this bike, use CB unicorn 150 chain kit (15T sprocket). It will increase cruising speed and mileage because fuel prices are very high. And don't worry about using this chain kit. It wont cause any problems to engine. Because the original bike stunner was launched with 16T sprocket on its FI version while hero used only 14T on carb variant. So 15T is still good and works well.

    Hello friends, this is my second bike hero ignitor. I owned this bike for past 3 year covered upto 30000km, this bike have good looking styles.Bike pickup is average and with pillion pick up is not good. Engine is smooth and sound less. If you ride this bike up-to 30km continuously your back will pain. This bike best for daily riding up-to 20km not more than that. Mileage if you ride with 45km/hr speed it gives 50km/ltr. Spares are not available in any local market. Overall bike ok if you maintain it properly.
