Matching Numbers
Engine VIN # includes BM for Bonneville motor - I will NOT be held accountable if it is not!

I have NOT pulled the heads to verify this & no plans to do at this time.

Per the history for engine numbers by Indian, it would be a 1300cc motor vs 1200cc

I "have not" pulled the heads to verify piston size/height/bore, stroke, etc.

Carb is correct for the year as a M344 Linkert.
A partial restore is started.
DO NOT FAULT incorrect hardware! Current install is a mixture!
Magneto was sent off to Belanger's in Maine or "Mainely Magneto's" in January 2016. Replaced!
Mechanic who worked on this bike in January to May stated it was in running condition

I have done nothing to the bike and being sold AS IS!

Hero MotoCorp Launches 125cc Ignitor in India

Tue, 03 Jul 2012

Hero MotoCorp has launched the Ignitor, a 125cc premium model based on the CBF Stunner from former partner turned rival Honda. The Ignitor is one of the final models Hero will produce with technology licensed from Honda, and it is expected to bridge the gap before Hero introduces its own new models (with help from a gentleman named Erik Buell.) Like the Stunner, the Hero Ignitor is powered by a 125cc single-cylinder engine. Both models claim 11hp and 8 ft-lb., but the Ignitor reaches its peak torque at 5000 rpm while the Stunner has to spin up to 6500 rpm.
