Hero Honda Hunk Launched – The new josh machine in the HH family – Download hunk photos
Posted by skraghav on November 5, 2007
Hero Honda recently launched their much awaited bike Hero Honda Hunk.
This machine has almost similar power and torque to CBZ xtreme, i.e.14.2bhp at 800 rpm and 12.8 nm at 6500 rpm. Then engine displacement is 149.2 cc.
Look and styling.
The very first thing you observe is adjustable rear shock absorber; it is I think first in Hero Honda Bike. Here in Hero Honda Hunk, saddle position is nice so it feels so sporty while sitting on Bike.
Front Disc brake is fine, I wished if they could have increased its size as TVS did in Apache RTR 160, it looks so nice and somehow makes feel bike more powerful (Appearance). As far as design is concern the bike has over all a big look as we had with CBZ xtreme. Here grab rail is single piece i.e. not like CBZ xtreme which as spitted one looked really cool. One thing I noticed here that they wanted to bike to look shorter and sporty and hence you can see on back that they have kept seat little shorter though ideally should stretch a bit more, anyhow it is looking unique.
What I think that there was something missing in CBZ xtreme and Hero Honda thinks that to compete with Apache RTR and new pulsar, they should work around and hence we have “Hunk”.
It has body colored leg guard, I have seen first in Hero Honda bikes and rather in any bike yet. Another nice thing about design is its fairing covering the tank, it really makes it feel big, sit over and it is really big. Headlamp is good but again could have better in design. I don’t know why Hero Honda people can’t create an appealing front look but its satisfactory this time.
Looking at the meter console, we have no digital instruments there, looks like Hero Honda wants to make it traditional style manly stuff, only raw power. After all, you can’t feel the adrenaline in those digital meters as you feel when theniddle spindle over the meter… wraoommmm… Fuel consumption is said to same as CBZ but with little improvement. And bike comes in two versions, a kick start costing Rs. 55000 ex showroom Delhi and Rs. 57000 for Electric start ex-showroom Delhi.

HH Must really improve on bikes it has to try and do some R&D with foreign bike manufactures and come up with a bike which can hold indian biking market for some time i did had a splendor bike earlier,which is know as the best bike ever produced by HH but it has to look over Splendor so that it can keep a hold on Indian Biking market,
1)It has to first come up with a 125cc bike naming it as terminator which must have atleast 10 or more bhp of power.
2)with a excellent mileage what is really required for todays generation,
3)With tuf up tures.
4)With Extended warranty.
5)Sporty Looks. and must come up with extra feauteres such as
a)Safe locking with advanced remote loking
b)Anti bike locking if some tries using other key.
c)two free tyres and with helmet free extra services.
d)price costing not more than 38000rs. as i have already used HH i want it to come up with new generation bikes for todays generation.
Thanks
