Well, Hero Moto does have an R&D and even though it is nascent, they are going very aggressive with it. With able lead for their R&D, Hero may throw up some surprises. Till then, sticker jobs are all we are gonna get!Originally posted by mulli84 View Post

Its Honda tech. Engine is the heart of the bike. All these years Hero was living and cashing in money with Honda`s help. With so much money in their hands, they never cared to design an engine by themselves. Don't we have brilliant minds here?Sometimes you gotta run before you can walk ! - Tony Stark

Would the common people be stupid enough not to make out that the Ignitor is actually the Stunner..??
Volkswagen Vento = Skoda Rapid
Nissan Micra = Renault Pulse
and now the first for 2 wheelers..
Hero Ignitor = Honda CBF Stunner
Well anything goes..

Your comment made no sense because at the end of the day that very "Product" you speak of is from Honda. So fuell efficiency, quality, reliability etc would be attributed to Honda not Hero.Originally posted by vipin_s View PostHero has proved over years about their product's strength (reliability, quality, fuel efficiency, re-sale value etc etc) that's why they sell, it's not just about brand, it's product as well.
To others: Did you ever think of it this way that Honda let Hero have this STunner lookalike because maybe they will replace the existing 125cc bike with a different model? Considering the pace at which Honda is revamping its motorcycle portfolio in the last 12 months?Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.

One question. Will these bikes be allowed to be sold even after the 2014 agreement date lapses? Or will Hero have to completely withdraw all bikes from sale featuring the Honda engine?Every Motorcycle has a tale to be told and there is no greater privilage in the life of a rider than to have truly understood what his Motorcycle stands to tell. Some of the greatest stories in the world are not written, they are experienced.

You can't call it as Honda product. Hero bought the rights to use it and its a HERO product, manufactured by Hero.Originally posted by Nithesh View PostYour comment made no sense because at the end of the day that very "Product" you speak of is from Honda.

Absolutely correct.Originally posted by Above_All View Post1) If bike get any problem then who will be blamed ?
2) Similarly who will get credit if it don't have any problem ?
I think the answer of those two questions will help to decide whose product it is been called .
Mods : Sorry if it off topic .
Whatever the case may be, Rapid currently sells more than the VentoOriginally posted by payeng View PostWould the common people be stupid enough not to make out that the Ignitor is actually the Stunner..??

And anyways, there are subtle differences between the Stunner and the Ignitor. So lets not write off a product before it even comes on the road.Advice is a form of nostalgia.
Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

Just because Maruti Suzuki manufactures 1.3 MJD (they got licensing for some years), engine doesn't become Maruti.Originally posted by ravi@17bhp View PostYou can't call it as Honda product. Hero bought the rights to use it and its a HERO product, manufactured by Hero.
Well, if you are owner, then certainly you can't go to Honda. But as a biker, if there is a problem with these engines you know who is to blame and whom not to trust with your money.Originally posted by Above_All View Post1) If bike get any problem then who will be blamed ?

Good examples there except that Skoda & Nissan are subsidaries to VW & Renault respectively. While Hero was in a JV till recently now they are a separate company. It's more like Nissan selling Suzuki's A-star with a different name & Nissan badge on it. But atleast that happens in a market where Suzuki doesn't sell A-star.Originally posted by payeng View PostWould the common people be stupid enough not to make out that the Ignitor is actually the Stunner..??

We are not talking about parts of the product and their sources.

Off Topic , sorry but wanted to clear some points .
I own bikes & i use them too . So i think i am an owner & biker , many / almost all peoples on xbhp would be same if i am not wrong .Originally posted by vrugonnab View PostWell, if you are owner, then certainly you can't go to Honda. But as a biker, if there is a problem with these engines you know who is to blame and whom not to trust with your money.
What i know is if any part / anything on bike fails / gives problems then we have to show it at the bike manufacturer company's showroom / service center . Not at different bike manufacturer's place . Which i & almost all guys do . We won't go to vendor of perticular part if it has problem .
Except for Battery & Tyre cause for it we have two options either show its problem & fix it from Bike Manufacturer Service Center or from tyre/battery retailer showroom .

I think I said the same thing in two lines! you may want to read it again if it's not clear.Originally posted by Above_All View PostI own bikes & i use them too . So i think i am an owner & biker , many / almost all peoples on xbhp would be same if i am not wrong .

But that your two lines sound like owner & biker are 2 different type of human beings .Originally posted by vrugonnab View PostI think I said the same thing in two lines! you may want to read it again if it's not clear.
And as a biker one have to reach the perticular part vendor if it fails not to bike manufacturer .
Maybe** i understood those two lines wrong .
