The Ignitor was launched in 2012, just after the company was rechristened to Hero MotoCorp. The Ignitor and its twin, the CBF Stunner are a part of the competitive 125cc segment, though the former manages to edge ahead in terms of styling, owing to the host of cosmetic updates.
Cosmetic updates like the redesigned body panels, front cowl new graphics and body-coloured rear-view mirror set the Ignitor apart from the Stunner. The bike also gets a digital-analogue instrument console. Despite the styling, the Ignitor is an outright commuter bike. The upright seating position coupled with its light weight make the Ignitor agile and fun to ride in urban stop-go traffic.
The Ignitor is powered by the same air cooled, four stroke 124.7 cc SOHC engine which produces 11bhp and 11Nm of torque. The engine is mated to a five-speed constant mesh gearbox. Hero offers the Ignitor with optional disc brakes at the front while the rear wheels only get standard drums.
The Ignitor is offered in five colour schemes- pearl white, vibrant blue, sports red, panther black metallic and flaming orange. Priced at Rs 60,200 for the disc and Rs 58,200 for the drum variant, the Ignitor goes up against other 125cc commuter bikes like the Honda CBF Stunner, Bajaj Pulsar 135LS, Suzuki Slingshot Plus and the Yamaha SS 125.
Hero Ignitor is available in the following colours in India.

It's a very good bike. I have owned this bike for 10 years. I never face any serious problems with my bike, I ride it over 1lakh km. The hero should have to relaunch this bike again. I am fully satisfied with my bike. But my difficulty is finding his parts. It shouldn't available in the market or showroom. Why hero you discontinued this bike? It's such a very reliable bike.

Since 9 years my bike is awesome and mileage is 62 km per liter. The bike is still roaring in Mysore. But the the color I bought is white, so while using the color is dull. Only changed the chain sprocket twice. The vehicle is very durable and comfortable for long drive, daily I drive 200 km per day. Thanks for hero motors.

I bought this new bike in 2015 and used it for the occasional commute. The front brake is disc while the rear is drum. Servicing of this bike has been done in every 4-5 months and never faced any issue of breaking down or whatsoever. The hero is a trusted company and has its service centres and stores all over India so there won't be any issue maintaining it.

Do not buy if you have to ride it through traffic
5 years ago
Binyamin
I bought this after selling my unicorn 150. The first thing you will notice on this bike is its gearing. It got very short gearing ratio to accommodate 5 gears. It is probably the reason the bike didn't sell well. The seat is comfortable and wide, but the handle is short. I changed it to a wider one. Comfort increased instantly. 1 liter petrol will give you about 47 kms. It is not good for highway rides. Will vibrate above 50kmper hour. Overall if you can get it for a good price in second hand market go for it. Otherwise just no.

For youth cheap and best

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.

Bad product from hero
6 years ago
Satya Ray
I bought this bike on 2k13 upon impressed by the design and looks. First 3 years, i used it for everything before my new car. Typically my use was daily commute and occasionally long drive. Now-a-days i am using it for occasionally commute.After completing almost 30000 km, my experience is not so good. Expect looks( even though it varies person to person) nothing is good. Performance is reasonable but not a great pickup if you compare other makes with 125 segment. Tyres are worst, instant disc can throw pillion passenger a long way, which happened to me once. Fortunately nothing happened major ( minor injury).Fuel efficiency is 45-47 depends on traffic and driving style. Pros:- looks ( smaller version of old karizma)- mileage ( depends on perception)- low maintenance. Cons:- riding quality - pickup ( comparing to yamaha bikes)- tyre - handling- seating comfort (not suitable for long route ).

Engine doesn't last long no buy back or resale value
6 years ago
Sreekanth S V
I brought this bike when it got released. I booked it in December and took in January. Buying experience is good. Riding experience : bike balance is great doesn't trouble you when you drive on rough and smooth roads. Quality : i wouldn't even give anything here, since engine had to be changes after 48000 kms, even after getting it service from authorised service centre all the time. Engine is being replaced for the second time. In 48000 kms, which is way ridiculous than any other bikes.Quality of painting is very poor doesn't even last 3 months and not covered any warranty, service centre guy clearly report that is how cheap it is designed and sold. And cannot be done anything. Not even repainting can be done for this vehicles.Maintenance is costly: since mag-wheel and complete set has to be changes after every 15000 kms. Which costs 8000rs for every 15k kms. For simple oil change and labour they charge 1200rs. And yet engine doesn't last long.Strength pickup: pickup with pillion is very less you have to always com back to first gear. Fibre always creates sound with pillion.
