Comfort and handling

The Hunk has a stepped seat and rear-set foot pegs that give the rider a sporty stance without sacrificing rider comfort. The vibrations are well controlled. The bike also features gas-charged adjustable rear shock absorbers and rear tire with a tuff-up tube.

Performance and fuel economy

The Hunk has the 149 cc engine used in Honda Unicorn and Hero Honda CBZ X-treme, with Advanced Tumble-Flow induction Technology (ATFT) which the company claims will reduce emissions and fuel consumption. The new upgraded Hunk comes with semi-digital dashboard, ridged exhaust cover with front and rear disc brakes, tubeless tires and contoured visor. After recent cosmetic changes, the bike still retains its single-cylinder, air-cooled 149.2 cc engine.

Visuals

Hunk features its own unique racing bull insignia on either side edges of the fuel tank.

Awards

The Hunk has won the NDTV Profit Car India & Bike India Awards Viewers’ Choice Award in the bike category.
