    Hey guys...Hwzz u all...


    My black ignitor which i bought on 9th aug. 2013... So, as we all know that its the best bike in looks and performance in 125 cc ....I have completed 6100 km..Till now. I used to maintain my speed b/w 45 to 70..I think this speed is best for bike mileage & engine performance..:) I used to clean my bike in every 3-4 days....Its pick up is awesome. About mileage.....I used to fill rs.100 Petrol i.E: 1.27 Litre......And getting 72 kmpl..Exactly....Every time....Thats really awesome...I love this bike. This bike is definitely not for racing...This bike is for youths who want something new looking and good mileage bike...I love my bike....

    Pros

    looks, comfort & handling is great.

    Cons

    rear tyre should be wider

  • Experience after riding 2500 kms

    9 years ago


    Sourav Sinha

    Style the styling of this bike is excellent,really look awesome on road.


    Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox engine performance is preety good,gearbox never created any problem till date but fuel economy is not so satisfactory to me,it could hardly give 50 km/l.


    Ride quality & handling pickup is ok but handling is never been a prob. In this bike


    final words if a mileage of 50km/l is ok for you then for sure go for this bike.


    Areas of improvement fuel economy.

  • Little dumb... Too good after 30000kms on saddle

    6 years ago


    Rahul Matai

    I am riding with her since last 2.5 years... More than 30k kms...

    Buying experience was not all that great given that my purchase showroom did not pay attention to us however this might change if the showroom authorities are good for you... Just the human nature...

    Ride experience was good and was pleasant... Typically commuterish... But the split seat provides good support if ridden full tuck... Wind protection is not good as the wind shield is of absolutely no use being so small... Seat was again commuterish.. Good only for short distance.. Personal suggestion to go for rode on air for long distance... Suspension works fine and will not allow the ride to become to jarring but is not very much suited for high aggressive ridding... Handling is decent enough bike can be flicked around and stays easy on arms... Bike is easy on pocket for fuel and i did manage to get around 60-62 kmpl in city for first year but eventually it has decreased to 45-47 kmpl given that i ride more aggressively in city as well... Although fuel economy is far from good on highway at speeds of 70 km/h since it dips to 40 kmpl... (highly disappointing)??... The power is smooth and post 4000rpm there is a surprise boost of torque waiting to pull you away although you can do from 25 to 100 in 5th gear which means this thing can pull you away no matter your size..????

    I was never a fan of looks from certain angles specifically the absolute sides... Fairing looks to have stopped right before the end and short wind shield makes it look odder... But front and rear 3/4 angles are the best to look at this bike which make me love her even more... Performance is good for a commuter.... Good torque low the rev range for city rides under 4000 rpm... Good power post the mark... Low vibration (kudos to hero...)

    Can get to cruise speeds real easy and quick... I don't have a vbox and got some heavy mods but this thing can do 0-60 in 6-7 seconds.. (impressive for a 125cc commuter)... There is absolutely no point of revving engine after 8500 rpm as the engine flat lines and revs go upto 10000 rpm and the bike goes to 111km/h (atleast mine did????) breaking is handled by 240 mm bybre unit at front and a 130mm drum at rear which are ok.... But lack the feel... ????

    Maintenance and service are subject to market risks.... Well bike it self is rock solid but if you are anyone like me who can't keep the bike stock... You need to visit service centre more often... But here is a catch... I messed bike twice and they were real bad back to back (i almost died) and spare parts were not available.. Not even disc plate... (disappointing).... Maintenance is easy and then depends on courtesy of your service centre.... ???? (may the force be with you) give the bike it's proper food and she is ready to roll....

    Pro's

    Good torque

    Good mileage for a 125cc

    Easy to maintain

    Easy to work around

    Easy on pocket

    Average looks

    Good handling

    Good power

    Cons

    Average gearbox

    Bloody dumb stock tyres (i changed them on the very first day)

    Bad headlight

    Average breaks

    Well this being my first bike.. I love it...

    Probably one of the best 125 today (although discontinued) i won't sell this one no matter how many i buy....

    Ciao guys hope you find this useful... Ride safe ride hard.. Wear safety gears all time.... Specifically helmet....

    Gears i use: vega cara helmet, rynox tronado pro l2 jacket and snocyo gloves

  • Stylish and comfortable

    9 years ago


    Chintan Shah

    Style well i own it since march 2014 and all i can say is that its very comfortable to ride in city. Style feature headlight wings are not required at all just to look like twin sister stunner. The fibre body gives up very easily on small accidents. Also pillion seat looks very stylish for collegians while it really is messy for short heighted pillions.


    Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox engine is pretty strong, i can reach 60 in 6 seconds roughly. Not so fuel economic though. I get around 47-50 kmpl in city area like ahmedabad. Gearbox is modest.


    Ride quality & handling superior experience while riding this bike. Extremly comfortable to carrry out 100 km at at stretch. High handling experience with no hassles


    final words love it.


    Areas of improvement pillion seat should be lowered to atleast 3 inches, headlight wings should be removed.


    Better paint quality is required for black body models, improvement in gearbox smoothness essentially required. Kerb weight should be reduced by atleast 4 kg to improve littel bit of mileage.

    Pros

    smooth

    cons

    poor mileage

    I rode this bike for 50000+ km's. I never faced any serious issue with service or product. Mileage is about 55-60 km/l Continue reading 170-200 km nothing such any issue in comfort or bike regarding. I feel bike best response 50-75 km/h. I own drum brake variant amazing response every time. I love it's handling.

    Riding experience is awesome loved it,

    Looks great for students, decent mileage 55-60 kms. Bike is looks big but weight very less, easy to ride, 5 gears, digital and analog speedo meter.

    My black ignitor which i bought on 9th aug. 2013... So, as we all know that its the best bike in looks and performance in 125 cc ....I have completed 6100 km..Till now. I used to maintain my speed b/w 45 to 70..I think this speed is best for bike mileage & engine performance..:) I used to clean my bike in every 3-4 days....Its pick up is awesome. About mileage.....I used to fill rs.100 Petrol i.E: 1.27 Litre......And getting 72 kmpl..Exactly....Every time....Thats really awesome...I love this bike. This bike is definitely not for racing...This bike is for youths who want something new looking and good mileage bike...I love my bike....

    Pros

    looks, comfort & handling is great.

    Cons

    rear tyre should be wider

    Style the styling of this bike is excellent,really look awesome on road.


    Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox engine performance is preety good,gearbox never created any problem till date but fuel economy is not so satisfactory to me,it could hardly give 50 km/l.


    Ride quality & handling pickup is ok but handling is never been a prob. In this bike


    final words if a mileage of 50km/l is ok for you then for sure go for this bike.

  • Little dumb... Too good after 30000kms on saddle

    6 years ago


    Rahul Matai

    I am riding with her since last 2.5 years... More than 30k kms...

    Buying experience was not all that great given that my purchase showroom did not pay attention to us however this might change if the showroom authorities are good for you... Just the human nature...

    Ride experience was good and was pleasant... Typically commuterish... But the split seat provides good support if ridden full tuck... Wind protection is not good as the wind shield is of absolutely no use being so small... Seat was again commuterish.. Good only for short distance.. Personal suggestion to go for rode on air for long distance... Suspension works fine and will not allow the ride to become to jarring but is not very much suited for high aggressive ridding... Handling is decent enough bike can be flicked around and stays easy on arms... Bike is easy on pocket for fuel and i did manage to get around 60-62 kmpl in city for first year but eventually it has decreased to 45-47 kmpl given that i ride more aggressively in city as well... Although fuel economy is far from good on highway at speeds of 70 km/h since it dips to 40 kmpl... (highly disappointing)??... The power is smooth and post 4000rpm there is a surprise boost of torque waiting to pull you away although you can do from 25 to 100 in 5th gear which means this thing can pull you away no matter your size..????

    I was never a fan of looks from certain angles specifically the absolute sides... Fairing looks to have stopped right before the end and short wind shield makes it look odder... But front and rear 3/4 angles are the best to look at this bike which make me love her even more... Performance is good for a commuter.... Good torque low the rev range for city rides under 4000 rpm... Good power post the mark... Low vibration (kudos to hero...)

    Can get to cruise speeds real easy and quick... I don't have a vbox and got some heavy mods but this thing can do 0-60 in 6-7 seconds.. (impressive for a 125cc commuter)... There is absolutely no point of revving engine after 8500 rpm as the engine flat lines and revs go upto 10000 rpm and the bike goes to 111km/h (atleast mine did????) breaking is handled by 240 mm bybre unit at front and a 130mm drum at rear which are ok.... But lack the feel... ????

    Maintenance and service are subject to market risks.... Well bike it self is rock solid but if you are anyone like me who can't keep the bike stock... You need to visit service centre more often... But here is a catch... I messed bike twice and they were real bad back to back (i almost died) and spare parts were not available.. Not even disc plate... (disappointing).... Maintenance is easy and then depends on courtesy of your service centre.... ???? (may the force be with you) give the bike it's proper food and she is ready to roll....

    Pro's

    Good torque

    Good mileage for a 125cc

    Easy to maintain

    Easy to work around

    Easy on pocket

    Average looks

    Good handling

    Good power

    Cons

    Average gearbox

    Bloody dumb stock tyres (i changed them on the very first day)

    Bad headlight

    Average breaks

    Well this being my first bike.. I love it...

    Probably one of the best 125 today (although discontinued) i won't sell this one no matter how many i buy....

    Ciao guys hope you find this useful... Ride safe ride hard.. Wear safety gears all time.... Specifically helmet....

    Gears i use: vega cara helmet, rynox tronado pro l2 jacket and snocyo gloves

  • Stylish and comfortable

    9 years ago


    Chintan Shah

    Style well i own it since march 2014 and all i can say is that its very comfortable to ride in city. Style feature headlight wings are not required at all just to look like twin sister stunner. The fibre body gives up very easily on small accidents. Also pillion seat looks very stylish for collegians while it really is messy for short heighted pillions.


    Engine performance, fuel economy and gearbox engine is pretty strong, i can reach 60 in 6 seconds roughly. Not so fuel economic though. I get around 47-50 kmpl in city area like ahmedabad. Gearbox is modest.


    Ride quality & handling superior experience while riding this bike. Extremly comfortable to carrry out 100 km at at stretch. High handling experience with no hassles


    final words love it.


    Areas of improvement pillion seat should be lowered to atleast 3 inches, headlight wings should be removed.


    Better paint quality is required for black body models, improvement in gearbox smoothness essentially required. Kerb weight should be reduced by atleast 4 kg to improve littel bit of mileage.

    Pros

    smooth

    cons

    poor mileage

Mileage is about 55-60 km/l Continue reading 170-200 km nothing such any issue in comfort or bike regarding. I feel bike best response 50-75 km/h. I own drum brake variant amazing response every time. I love it's handling.
