My wee 1965 Honda 50cc done 45 mph, it was my first road bike. This was in 1972, my mates dad bought him a brand spanking new one and his done 50 mph, but for some reason he liked my old one better, and we always swapped bikes. Our mates used to laugh at us for only having a 50 ,but we had the last laugh at their expense when we passed them standing at the bus stop waiting for the bus while we gave them the v sign and laughed at them, cause we were on our way to Portrush from Belfast with our girlfriend's on the back, with a "promise " when we got to Portrush. Oooooh yeeeeeah man. I loved my wee Honda 50 Oh btw, why are the 50s of today so slow.
What are now referred to as "upside down" forks, decades ago used to be normal forks. Back then "upside down" forks had the shiny narrower sections at the top.
@@heisenberg5373 this shit looks just so clean and classic, love it so much. Now im doing some garden work for a company, hopefully this bike is worth the weeks of sticking fuckin plants
Prefer the 125 over the 50, prefer the oval side panel over the sculptured one, prefer the end can on the 50 over the one on the 125, kickstart shaft poking out wearing a condom not a smart move, nice speedo display, don't get wrong still a handsome machine.
It’s the best looking 50cc I’ve seen. But I still believe 50’s are dangerous. Still waiting for the Hero 400/450?! I’m going to the NEC on 23rd Nov. Will I see one there?
Wait a minute.. Bullit hero is getting 500? Woah. I was thinking of buying this bike (125cc) but my friends keep talking me about motorway madness and don't deal much with small accelerations for dealing with passing cars. My guess is that if a 500 is on the making, that would be awesome!
@@motorsforthemasses yeah, i even don't know how reliable they are, to be honest. I'm from Portugal and when people i know sees manufactures like these, they tend to thinking twice since there isn't much information for how long you can have spares for it, for instance and look at honda/suzuki as a deal for life. The thing is, i freaking love how this bike looks and that little touch that makes it a little offroad for a beginner (like me!). Saw you guys comparing it with an hanway and that was it for me :D btw keep posting these sweet reviews, so good to see good content with cool people with honest, well put opinions with a sense of humor! (i like most the square metal part as well haha)
I like better with the round number plate because the style is all scrambler. Nice bike for beginners but must say that bullit shoul make a 250cc.... shame. Also shame ksr, sym, csc, herald, verve, Brixton, mutt, keeway, sinnis, swm, hanway, zontes and lexmoto are not making enough or any 250cc... their loss. Great review like always, thank you for sharing guys. Hsve a good one 👍👍👍
Those manufacturers will be making plenty of 250cc machines for other markets, especially Asian markets where a 250 is classed as a large capacity machine. In the early 1980's the British government lowered the learner limit from 250cc to 125cc, that almost killed the 250cc market here. It has never really recovered since, 250's just aren't popular in the UK anymore.
@@davidmacgregor5193 that's not good because there are a lot of older riders that find a 125cc to weak and a 500cc unnecessary power that is not needed, that's where the 250 is perfect.
Hi guys, enjoying your vida on the 50, just bought one and loving it so far. Have a question for you, are some of the parts interchangeable from the 125,namely the sump guard?... Ie could I take the supguard from the 125 and put it onto my 50? Like the side panels but don't like the fact "FIFTY" is written on them! Ruins the illusion of a bigger bike!... AL.
If it's called "Hero", then why does it say "Hera" on the panel? I know, because in the sixties, the names of cars had to be one piece moldings. But it does say Hera - the goddess of marriage and fertility...
Hey fellas. Nice video. I just bought the Hero 125. I'm a motorcycle noob with a couple of questions. Pardon me if they seem daft but what is the right-hand switch for on the bar? I don't mean the kill switch, I mean the black one below. Also what are the optimal tyre pressures for front and rear? I have the handbook but it reads like a Chinese porn script. Not good English. It lists pressures in kPa not psi. It says front 225 kpa and rear 280. So 30 and 40 psi respectively? I'd be grateful for a reply, thanks.
What should I buy, a mash or a hero? I live in Belgium and I want to buy a cool bike, but function over fashion of course so please recommend anything Edit: I was also wondering if the mash was an automatic
Hi, Mash is not automatic. Mash 50 is a smoother ride, retro coolness. Hero is better looking and sounding and can be tuned to be 20kph faster, but the ride is harsher.
Motors for the Masses thanks for replying! Wich one would you guys recommend? Also wondering if you guys know if the starter issue has been resolved yet, since I tried contacting bullit but they don’t really make it obvious where to contact them
Hi, I'm looking at buying a moped soon as I recently turned 16 and will be getting my cbt soon. I know nothing about upgrades or mechanics of this bike but I was wondering if it would be possible for me to stick a bigger cc engine in it once I'm 17 and I can upgrade it. Or is that just not possible with this or any mopeds
I'm 55 with a pre 2001 car licence, so no L plates needed for this. Would this be enough power to just do a bit of green lane riding for fun, not sure I can be arsed to take my full license and don't want a big bike, any advice would be great, been a road cyclist for 37yrs so anything is more powerful than a push bike 😂
Hi. These can be derestricted to do 45mph...but it will void the warranty. 30mph is slow but might be ok for green Laning, just much power to pull you out of mud etc. If you can put up will an L-plate and do the CBT, 125 is much better, without having to do the full test.
50cc bikes are just dangerous on modern roads. You dont have the speed to get out of trouble, or not to cause other road users road rage. It used to be bad enough on 125's (but that also could be down to where you live, and how busy the roads are ).
You can see how pissed he is after riding it because the thing is grandma scooter level fast.. The traffic is raping you with this engine power. I've ridden 125 the past year and i am sick of it i wanna puke just listening to the sound.. Anyways it is wednesday my dudes, ride safe.
Pointless like all motorcycle style geared 50s. I you are 16 buy a beat up speedfight, sr50, or yamaha aerox for next to nothing, crash it about 3 times and then flog it on on your 17th birthday for about what you paid.
@@motorsforthemasses people want what they want which is up to them. I just can't see the financial sense of spending 2200 on something like this but undoubtably there is a market for such things.

There is a way to derestrict the bike to do 45mph quite easily. However, you are better off selling it at 17 and buying a 125
Will your bobber be at Birmingham?
No, sadly no room. We would have to take it at the start and leave it there for the whole week then take back after.
Do you think its better built than a mash ?
Hmm, very hard to separate quality wise...more style difference than anything else to be honest
I'm almost 16 and I'm looking for a bike that has an engine that can be switched to a 125cc does anyone have any recommendations
What’s the costs for a full tank of fuel?

Hmm, Mash black 7 or brown 7? AJS Tempest.
