Watched this multiple times, as an owner of a Hero 125 you got everything spot on. I would kill for more Hero content!
Your intro was DOPE mate !!!😂 And the presentation is very comprehensive ! Thank you!
Thanks for all your Testvideo...
Greetings from Germany
hi
The new black/gold version is a very nice looking bike.
Great video as always..
Awesome intro aswell 😉👌
Thank you for the amazing review! I prefer the GULF :)
I love the Martini Racing colours!
Got my eye on one l had a TL 125 in the 70s the Bullit might be the business,,,
Best sounding and looking 125 period
Was actually going to go for the titanium model for my first bike but I ended up with my f.b mondial smx, which i dont regret at all :) .
What a great choice of 125 bikes, as for which one flip a coin. 👍
Just saw the 3 models in Dublin. Much better looking in the flesh. Seem well put together. The Gulf, is definitely the best looker..
I prefer the Gulf and like like the colour, reminds me of the old Triumphs. I would be very interested to see what the 450 cc would be like. I hope they keep the scrambler theme. It's what's missing in the Triumph range, and no a 1200 is not a scrambler in my opinion.
All good choices but the gulf is nice for me
Hi nice to see them all start on first time with the key , mine has from new been second start from key
I would take that back to the dealer.
You give enough time to the fuel pump to work? Just start it after the winning sound stops when you turn the key.
had a look at a titanium one and the big no for me was no trip counter as there is no fuel gauge . so you have to fill pretty regularly as you never know how much/far you been
They are good looking bikes enough said
You r the best ... I do not like all presented bikes but presentation is good
The Bianco with the Gulf tires, please :)
I was thinking exactly that also 😊
Wanted the Hero before a bought the HPS125. Might pop in to see what part exchange deals you offer? 😜
There awesome bikes I've had mine for 2 years now still looks as good as new. New tyres on like the gulf one and a scorpion exhaust perfect now will never get rid as well as have a 600 the hero is just a giggle
Hi Kieran, I'm interested in buying the Hero and I was wondering if you could give me your honest opinion on the Hero as you have one for 2 years. The bike looks really great but my concern is that it is a chinese built bike. Do you have any issues with the bike after 2 years or are you satisfied in general. Any things you need to replace after a while, or check on a regular basis. Thanks in advance if you can give me a honest review (and by the way how is that scorpion exhaust)
Any news on the bigger cc versions?
Do a video on the bullit hunt please!
I like the Bianco with its gold rims and "Martini" colour scheme. The Titanium's polished rear swing arm looks good. the Gulf edition has neither gold rims or polished metal swing arm and looks too plain as a result. I also think the lack of wind deflector plate above the headlight on the Gulf edition adversely affects the looks of the front of the bike. I do like the Gulf's paint job and the wider Michelin tyres which may be slightly better on the road - but not so good off road. Overall, I think the Bianco or Titanium models nail the Hero brief for looks, function, and value. I would have one of those. I don't think the Gulf "special" is sufficiently special to justify the higher price.
Hi guys love your vlog thanks watch on my TV many times so I have subscribe to your website Richard coventry
That end can is a supertrapp-or copy of one, playing around with the discs can "tune" the sound but may affect fuelling, ie richening or leaning out the fuel. Fuel injection may compensate-possibly depending on the quality of the EFI unit. The discs are shaped, wider gap may mean the discs are back to front. I run supertrapp on all my Harleys, as its the top system to get the most out of changes to cams/EFI mapping. Loud exhaust rarely equates to more power-usually less, and more important for road use- less torque. supertrapp.com/technology The stubby version on those bikes was almost universal on bikes in American flat track racing before the rules required the dustbin seen on some of today's trackers.
I had my Bianco delivered last weekend and I love it. I’ve separated the baffles and it sounds epic.
Fantastic!
Thinking of buying one what you think to yours
How did you do the baffles?
@@sweeneyTodd-de4by i believe its 6 or so hex screws on the end of the exhaust which hold the end plate and all the baffles in. It's a sort of decibel reducer even though with all baffles it sounds meaty.
@@psychosean77 you got one?
How's the build quality on these machines looking for my first 125cc
Any problem with the fuses?
Thanks for nice video, can you test ride Triumph rocket III?
Where can you get these bikes in the uk?
Can you do a review on a ajs jam 50, seems like nobody did a proper review on it☹️
I've watched this a few times now and bought the one with Herald on the tank, because it's exactly the same bike but £1000 cheaper. It's actually a Jinlin Daylong and it's just been sourced from China and not designed or built in the EU. If you buy 50 you can have any name machined onto the engine case and any name on the tank although Bullit and Herald chose the font for their particular versions. There's no denying that these are really cheap poorly made bikes, but the other makers dont have anything retro looking that comes anywhere near to looking as neat as these offerings, and so they will continue to sell them to people that dont care and will love them and loathe them warts and all.
What cc was this one this one and that one ???
Are these bikes also herald aka mitt motorcycles of Madrid?
What mileage do you get in a tank of fuel
I'm liking the Gulf But in a Larger cc , But would prefer if it had the Gold Spoked rims , I think it would look a lot nicer.
250 coming soon. 450/500 next year
Great review, I like this guy. What news do we have of the 250cc? Has to be the red/white one for me. Love those gold rims.
Not long to wait! We will be getting it to review first too
I've seen some of these without the passenger pegs. Is this an option when you buy as can't find any info on them..?
I am planing on buying one and I asked my Dealership as it was also one of my concerns and yes they usually come with the bike but you can remove them if you prefere so.
Does the Gulf heuro limited edition come with back pegs pegs
Yes id love one but not in ireland yet waiting ........
Bianco is beautiful. Any chance of a Mash Motorcycles comparison? Love the new intro/outro too
Hi, which Mash do you like? We have a 125 Falcone and 125 Dirt track review coming soon
The Mash 125 Dirt Track seems a great rival and fitting comparison. The amount of choice new riders have now is mind blowing!!
I recently bought the same bike, do anyone know where I can find original parts and accessories?
Are these available in Thailand
Will the Michelin tyres from the gulf edition fit on to the titanium and bianco without changing the rims?
yes, just be mindful to get the tyres that do not say 'rear only' on them.
Just bought one for my little brother. Not sure he's gonna get it 😏
The Gulf looks best; but I wouldn’t spend the extra on it to be fair. Can you do a feature on the bigger bikes too please?
Certainly! We do...and will
Great video guys, it's hard not to love the Hero, I think they look fantastic. Quick question, I'm looking a 125 for nipping into town, or a quick ride at the weekends, not looking for speed, just want something nice to jump on when the notion takes me. I'm 6 1" and around 17.5st, would this bike suit me or would I look to big on it?
This is one of the tallest 125's out. I don't think you would look odd on it at all.
That's great to hear, thanks for letting me know. Your vids/reviews are well done and really useful, keep up the good work 👌
hi, would you recommend the bullit hero 125 for a beginner and is it a good robust bike?
Many have chosen it as their first bike. It is a very different ride to a road bike due to those tyres, nobbly and notchy on corners...but fun to ride. As for ease, as long as you respect the corners, it should be fine.
Hi there,
Can you please tell me the brand, model and dimension of the tires of the special Gulf model?
Best Regards
They are Michelin Anakee Wild tyres. 130 rear, 110 front.
Is spray / dirt off back wheel an issue given there's no mudguard? Looking at one of these for a commuter but I think I'd be soaked
Can do...perhaps a think waterproof jacket may be order of the day.
Hi great video again. I'm really contemplating on buying one of these bikes and I'm not far from you shop do you still have the bullit hero's in stock.
I want to come an sit on one to test out as the ride height concerns me the seat looks really high I'm 5.8 and was wondering would I be able to have both feet or one flat to the ground .Thanks
.
You are more than welcome! 5ft 8 I think you will be ok...but come and check for sure.
Ok will do thanks 👍
I like the look of the bullit hero very much. But I am 1,95m (6,4 feet) tall and I am concerned the bullit hero might be too small for me. Is the bullit big enough for me or would you recommend to select a bigger bike like the KSR TW125 oder Honda Varadero?
Hi, the Varedero may be bigger overall, but has a lower seat height. The hero is a bike you very much sit 'on' rather than 'in' and the handle bars can seem low in comparison but most buyers at least sit on it before they buy. They look and sound great, but remember they have the nobbly tyres and as such do not ride as smooth as a normal road bike, nor as fast (50-55mph typically), a small price to pay for the benefits. I am 5ft 10 AND A HALF (matters). A Keeway TX could be an alternative, but no where near as nice looking or sounding.
Great bikes for a starter! Will you ever do a review on the Keeway RKF 125
lol....we will, just so many other newer bikes in the way...but it WILL come, probably with another bike too.
@@motorsforthemasses Great!
"eleven and a horse power engine"... I'm so glad he didn't change it. 🤣
Glad it was noticed. It was a little amusing
Is there any difference between the Forks or wheels? Like could you put the gulf tyres on the titanium, or stick the gulf wheels (and therefore tyres) on the titanium?
Yes, changeable, no problems
@@motorsforthemasses that's great! Means in theory I could stick some road tyres on it for when I know I won't be off roading for a while. If I get one anyway 😂
Leyendo los comentarios puedo ver de que no estan informados de lo que realmente ofrece esta motocicleta y de sus ventajas e inconvenientes
Can any one tell me if these can cut it off road, they look stunning
I really like the gulf but only 11.5 hp! is there an easy way to get them up to 14 - 15 hp? change the muffler i guess?
That might add 1/2 (half) hp, that's about it.
Is the 250 version available yet please
Very soon....
Hi any chance video on the bullit heritage 50 ASAP
As soon as it arrives on shore we will be sent one.
Hello! Got a question for you!
- What is the difference of the Bulit hero 50 and the Bluroc Hero 50??
- or are they the exact same bike? I am confused...different brand names, hmm..
I am in Sweden and like to buy one of these.. do you happen to know where one can buy one? I am interested in both new ones and second hand ones that been well taken care of..
Hope to hear back from you! Great channel you made! love the content and will follow :) Cheers, from Stockholm
Hi, Bluroc used to be Bullit. Sadly Royal Enfield sued Bullit Motorcycles for using the name as it was used on their Bullet 500 (different spelling); In the UK, they won! So in most of Europe and Asia, Bullit, in the UK, now Bluroc.
@@motorsforthemasses how tacky... anyone can see it not the same name.. I see... thanks'! do you know any website that sell second hand 50cc now in EU?
Is the size of the titanium higher than the martini? Or is it simply the seat height?
Seems just the seat height slightly different
@@motorsforthemasses Thanks to your video I went to look at the Hero today. Amazing bike, reckon I'll be buying one. Oddly though I couldn't see how the seat height could be adjusted - the dealer said there is no way to do it. At a stretch the suspension could be adjusted, but it's a bit unsafe to do so. He did point at some sort of rocker turny thing at the base of the bike frame under the suspension, is that it? Looked almost like a cam? But the dealer wasn't sure. Cheers
Cheap enough. They have a certain amount of kudos.
As a fun second bike, maybe. I wouldn't want to tackle fast A roads.
I have two of them .
Really? which ones do you have?
@@motorsforthemasses Hi Guys sor late reply .. work lool I have two Silver ones .. One has rear foot pegs and grab rail ..Bulit are letting stupid little things ruin the bike .. Like the back tail light(Ive had 4 or 5 £45 ago, lost count stoped buying them just use a led strip now from ebay £2 works a charm :) Folty Clocks Stuff like that...Both bikes had to have the head light re-earthed both clocks had folts I could still go on but I stop there. :)
Do you know when the 250cc comes out ?? Thx Guys.
@@scottsound4711 The 250 is in the next couple of Months
Just ordered the 2021 Gulf Hero special edition cant wait!!
any problems with yours?
Can i buy This bikes in Germany ? How much PS ?
unfortunately the front tyre on the gulf unless specially made for the bike does not exist the front 110- 80- 18 tyre by Michelin is only made for the rear its illegal and dangerous to put one on the front
Do a review on the new Super Soco TC Max 👍
We would like to but we have to travel somewhat to get one. However, we are going to be doing a video on the Zero range!
Bullit Hero or Benelli TNT?
Now for a 450 scrambler!
Watch this space
Ooh exciting and match for the Fantic 500?
What are the full spec's of the Michelin tyre's....pl;ease.
Michelin Anakee Wild 130/80x17 rear, 110/80x18 front
@@motorsforthemasses wouldn't it be an option to put other tires on it, instead of the offroad tires? I'm just thinking for myself. I'm a beginner, and I'm thinking of buying one of these to play around a bit, but maybe with road tires to make it a bit more smooth
Any idea of the top speed, lads,
Around 55
is it not 250 gulfs made
I have a DL1000 but want one of these bikes so much it hurts. There's just something about them. How do Bullit do it for the money? They undercut Mutt and Herald by a considerable margin.
I agree. They are great for the price....perhaps the question is...why do others charge so much? Consumer demand...following the mainstream manufacturers for style equals price? Who knows...or dares to speculate lol
They are produced in China. The electronics are a bit poor sometime. Last week I was driving when suddenly the engine fell out. Also the fuel warning light flashes like crazy while manouvring when there is still 1/3 in the tank. And the wheel spikes get rusty very quickly lol. But overall I really love this bike. It's even pretty easy to pull a wheelie with!
@@motorsforthemasses Bullit is a Belgian company having the bikes produced in China like many other 125s The European market for 125s is bigger, one currency across the bloc, the pound has dropped so imports cost more, Bikes landing on the continent don't require a second sea crossing to get to dealers.Who knows? -one thing I do recall from living in the UK is that the dealer that sells at the cheapest price usually has crap servicing and back up departments.
So can you not get the same tyres as the Gulf for the others?
Yes you can
Motors for the Masses thanks for the reply. That’s good to know. I prefer the grey. I’d definitely change the tyres. Gives it a better look from behind. I’d change the back light to the Gulf version. And also remove the front bracket above the headlight.
Motors for the Masses how easy is it to adjust the seat height? Can I do that myself or take it in?
@@Restricted68 Just a case of adjusting the shock
Cheers buddy. Another great review 👍🏼
It's comfortable for 2 people?!
Hi, I am Akash from India.
Can I buy it and import to my country
I like the Grey one, no, no I like the one with gold rims, no,no the Gulf is a looker aawww heck.
Ahahah xD
can you tell me how tall you are please?
5ft 10 &1/2 with 31 inch inside leg.
Get the 250 review done please!
As soon as they land in UK, we will...not long now.
Wished they did a semi automatic model :(
really?
@@motorsforthemasses I have nerve damage in my left side so clutch is no go for me, being on L plates that leaves me with scooters or pit bikes
yes I can get a bike adapted but the cost is to high and when i pass my test something like a honda DCT is also out my budget.
at the moment I have a lexmoto hunter that Im converting to a rat scrambler and using a 125cc semi auto pit bike engine
@@RobertBrownCyberboy109 Ah I see, sorry to hear that...but GREAT that you are converting a bike yourself.
How reliable is it?
No real major problems we have noticed apart from a couple of clocks loosing their needles and speedo drives needing replacement. Keep it clean and regularly service it as it should be and I see no major issues.
@@motorsforthemasses is it more reliable than Mondial hipster?
some people tald me the max speed of this bike is only 40-50 m/h, which made me really hesitate
50-55 mph to start with, then up to 60, perhaps 65 on a very good day. You may even get 70, downhill, wind behind you lol
60 easily. On good days you can even touch 70, otherwise 65.
I think there going to a lot of noisy teenage and pensioner hooligans running around😊I fit in the latter cheers from dave...
What puts me off the bullet is that I can't find any dealers near Bristol where I can pop along to look and have a test ride. You would have to be an idiot to just order one abd hope you like it when it turns up. The main bullet website gave a email of a local dealer but the email doesn't work and you can't email the main dealer. So this puts me right off. I want a dealer you can talk to if there is a problem with the bike. So I'm now looking at the Mutt. Mutt comes over as a lot more professional than Bullet.
Herald Motorcycles have their own similar bike called Maverick. At least the speedometer would be in Mph rather than bullit's KM.
Fun bikes but the speedo needs to be bigger with the larger numerals shown in mph not km for the UK market. Unless you have eyes like a fighter pilot you can't read the tiny mph scale - tough on the older riders who make up a significant share of the market and do pay the extra money for these higher end 125's. Mirrors are only usable with aftermarket extenders fitted.
Fair point...and yes the speedo is on the small side! However...is that a reason not to buy one do you think? I would just change the speedo personally....but I do see your point.
I want one!!!bit I live in fucking Germany
Can I drop a 250cc in . Im getting the need...........
Or buy the 250 version...(video on our channel quite recently). Different frame setup on the 250.
Prefer the first
First comment!
I really like your channel any watch all your videos. Your videos are really good quality and I am increasingly surprised you don’t have more subscribers then you do.
@@justgottasendit8825 We will get there! It can be frustrating how some utterly hideous channels have millions of subs....hopefully sharing will make it spread more. Thank you for your support.
Gulf all day every day.
*I think the gulf one is overrated*
Would you really buy a bike for its sound, maybe when your 16. None of the extras on the Gulf Ltd edition warrant the extra money, and you don't even get a Rev counter. And it's still a 125. Why dident they make the special edition a 250 esp as there will only be 100 made. I'd buy the silver one if I was a learner and spend the extra they are asking for the Gulf on some quality gear or insurance. The 125 market has always been a rip off for learners. You can buy a Chinese 400 cc for the same price as the Gulf model.
I would because I'm 45 going on 16 lol
Me too the sound makes the bike in my opinion
Gulf
Chinese bikes bad build quality some welding is poor
