I have bought White color IGNITOR and have driven 850 Kms. It has gone for first service. I have identified few problems with the bike.
Please note all these problems does not mention that this is worst bike. But issues which can be rectified.
Problems Faced:
While changing gear from 4th to 5th (80% of the time) the gear does not change over which results in uneven shift of gear. I even face this sometime when I change gear from 3rd to 4th but it is negligible.
When we are breaking suddenly and we are in 4th or 5th gear and once the bike is stopped the gear does not low down smoothly which in-turn results in an awkward sound coming from engine.
I don't find the Disc Breaks to be sharper and when I apply break suddenly sometimes it kind of Skids the front tire. (Skid in the sense not literally but the tyre wont stops at gets a few jerk before stopping. I think it might be because of TVS tyres )
The most part where I think this bike lacks is the GEAR. Hope it gets better after service)
Things which I like:
Engine is very smooth.
Riding comfort.
I have driven my bike to the speed of 88 and it is perfect. It does not vibrate or lacks anywhere.
This bike has never made me feel like riding a 125 CC bike. I love this bike and will let you know in case if I come across any other issue.
I might have missed to mention something. If you have any questions please let me know.
Regards

Previous Review
Hi All, I am Currently having Pulsar 150 which has given a lot of trouble so I decided to change my vehicle. I was analyzing 150 cc bikes when I thought of switching over to lower cc bikes for better mileage and cost. I planned for Twister, Dream Yuga and Ignitor. I wanted to have a glimpse of Ignitor but the showroom near my home did n get one. I heard that Hero was about to phase out ignitor and I was about to buy dream yuga or twister. I was so much addicted to ignitor that I traveled 30 kms to a showroom and found a Ignitor. I spoke with the Owner of the showroom who was polite and helpful. There were 2 black bikes in display and I asked whether there is any other color. He said there was a white bike in godown and took me there. It was dusty but still it attracted me. I asked for a test drive and he said he will arrange it in 20 mins. The bike was cleaned and to my astonishment I got the white color bike for test ride. It was awesome. Handling and pick up was best in a 125 CC. Seating position is one of the best. This is the first bike in which I felt I was sitting straight. I took the bike and rode it on roads which were bumpy and the shocks were working like butter. I was worried about drum break as I have never used it and felt that I would opt for disk break. Waiting period for disk break version is 1 month. I am planning to book this vehicle on Saturday. The sales person asked me to sit in pillion and he drove the bike fast and applied the break suddenly. The front shocks went completely inside and it was awesome. I inquired about the spare parts and the owner said that as per law a company has to supply spares for continuous 15 years. He showed me the number of bikes delivered in last 2 weeks and they have delivered 19 bikes. So please don worry about spares and go for this bike. A world reputed company will not let down its customers. I checked with the sales person about the millage and he said company claims 60-65 and there have been few bikes which have come for its 1st service and all the users have said that the mileage is on a average of 55 KM/L. I inquired about top speed and he said company has set 90 KM/H as top speed but the bike actually clocks 105KM/H. Since Battery was not connected I am not able to review about the light or digital display but as for as the consoles are concerned they are neatly placed and gives a superior feeling. Lights are perfect, scoop looks great, handle bar is the best and consoles are perfect, foot rest is great and gear shift was great but I had some trouble while bringing it to neutral but since it is a new bike I think I had this issue. Like old CBZ you need to move the foot rest to use the kicker. That is the only thing which irritates me but still having a kicker is always an advantage for us. Tyre grips were perfect. Drum breaking were good. Clutch felt smooth. Mirrors were perfect tail lamp was ok. Driver's seating is one of the best. Pillion seat was good. This is my first review. If there is any error please do not mistake me and please point it out so that I can correct it.
