    There is a new hero on the streets of India. The all new Hero Ignitor 125 cc launched by the leading Indian motor company Hero MotoCorp which was showcased  in the Auto Expo 2012 in the month of January. Earlier Hero had showcased three new models for the Indian market, the Hero Passion X Pro, Hero Ignitor 125 cc and the Hero Maestro 110 cc scooter. Hero Ignitor 125 cc looks like nothing but a clone of the Hero Honda CB stunner. The only minute difference that can be drawn out are the new stickers and the Hero badge in place of Hero Honda. Hero Igniter 125 cc is priced at Rs. 58,638 (ex-showroom Mumbai). Ignitor works on a 125 cc ATFT engine which is adjoined to a five-speed manual transmission gearbox. The ATFT engine ensures that air and fuel mixture flows to the engine cylinder with a tumbling or swirling action. The vehicle can produce a power as high as 11 PS at 8000 rpm.

    The bike also features tubeless tyres. According to the company officials the bike will sport a mileage of 60 kmpL. Ignitor 125 cc will be the highest model of the Hero Motocorp 125 cc array in India, the other two being Glamour 125 cc and Super Splendor 125 cc. Both of the latter motorcycles are made for the commuter sector while Ignitor has been made into a trend setter to target the young blood that needs a little extra bit of style and looks. Hero Ignitor 125 cc is set to compete against Bajaj Pulsar 135 cc and Honda Stunner 125 cc on the Indian roads but its major competitor will be Bajaj Discover 125 ST. The Discover 125 ST’s new styling and functional features have made its hopes even bigger. So, Hero MotoCorp has decided to launch the Ignitor before the Discover 125 ST.

      Comfoftable and styles

      My uncle have this bike since 2021 and it's too nice and comfortable to ride but I don't like the one thing that's the mileage. It's light weight and easy to ride. The handling is also smooth. I first ride this bike when I was only twelve years old. As a beginner,it's very nice to ride. Moreover, the sound is also less.

      It's a style bike with a 125 CC engine. The mileage is also good. Its maintenance cost is very low.

      Excellent mileage.

      The bike gives excellent mileage, Today I checked the mileage it is giving 7km in just 100ml of petrol and there is no vibration, no sound, such a refined engine great job done by Hero.

      Hero Igniter

      Hero Igniter My Black Ignitor, owned on Jan. 2014 at RS 58,000. HERO IGNITOR is good bike from the Hero. It is a replica of Honda stunner. The 125cc engine is enough to produce sufficient amount of thrust, with one cylinder it puts up 11bhp at 8000rpm, comes with AIR cooled cooling system. Mated to 5 gears easy shift and has good pickup. The weight is approx 129 kg makes it lightweight and easily accessible. Fuel tank capacity is up to 9 liters which is quite less for this bike. Hero Ignitor has very good suspension system makes it comfortable but seats are very unpleasant especially pillion one. The only problem i had is regarding its services and bike parts. From last 2 months i am trying to search bike parts but failed every time even bike dealers does not having parts available at their spare parts section. Final verdict- Looks are not good, you will face problems related to its parts. In 125cc segment it is okay. Only meant for youth not for everyone.

      Hero Igniter

      Hero Igniter I have Hero igniter and i owned this bike 1 year back, it is a replica of Honda stunner. As Hero igniter flaunts aggressive looks but i personally did not like its handling. It is offered with 125cc engine which is not enough for this bike, this bike needs more powerful engine and amount power generated is very low according to its body style, its engine mated to 5-speed gearbox that is a plus point of this bike. The company claims that igniter generates mileage of 72 kmpl but in real it fails to do so and company could have increase its fuel capacity a little bit, its fuel tank capacity is very low. moreover, its maintenance cost is not so much. On the account of safety, this bike is equipped with an anti-lock braking system that enhances its braking capacity and makes it one step ahead of Honda stunner. It has split seats are not so comfortable but its suspension system is quite good in design to overcome all road bumps. This bike is not meant for Age group only limited age group will purchase.
