Review of Hunk after 72,000 kms (3.5 years). Review on Hero Honda Hunk

I had this bike for more thn three years (Feb'2008 - Sep'2011) but, now I sold it..it was my biggest mistake an I miss it till today. Yes it was a 1st hand bike and I use to ride it almost 35-40kms daily..yes repeat DAILY to my office except on sundays an other holidays whn I used to go outing with my wife and friends.

well here r some of the positive points in the bike -

• soundless (while wearing a full mask helmet heardly u can hear a sound

  
  




• Self Start was with me till I sold it in 72, 540 kms (never failed)

  
  




• the more u speed up for Eg..90 - 100km per hour speed , it gets more smoother (less vibration)

  
  




• the gear shift was the best part of the bike (very very and very smooth- no slips, no stucks)

  
  




• Decent pick up as u can expect from a 4stroke bike.

  
  




• The seat was good and very comfortable for the butt for long rides as well

  
  




• feels very light and easy to handle in harsh traffic conditions

  
  




• sporty looks

  
  




• good milage (45 - 50kmpl)

  
  




• very maintainence free almost 0-maintainence

  
  

Now here are the negative ones -

• Chain gets loosend too quickly and chain cover as well (checking keeps it normal)

  
  




• Rear mudguard could have been a bitt better

  
  




• Rear tire could have been a bit broader

  
  




• Handle could have been a bit down (like in Pulsars)

  
  




• Battey needs to be checked after 60, 000kms

  
  




• Rear tire needs to be changed after 40, 000kms (depending on riding)

  
  




• Body parts gets loosend after evry 20, 000kms

  
  

But, the negative ones does not really matter cause the positive ones gives much more happiness , you see all bikes need to be taken care of to make the owner happy, and if u value your money then brother I suggest U GO FOR IT..believe me, ==i sold it cause of a bloody Royal Enfield Thunderbird Twinspark == and took a mouthfull of suffering, now till date I miss my Hunk..it has never made a big cut in my pockets..shouldnt hv sold it man I was so happy..and now I stare at others Hunk and give them free compliments..

Any ways guys forget what people talk regarding Hero Honda / HeroMotocop crap....just go for it..it is currently available for (68, 000 on road) in kolkata , and fix a local experienced mechanic..believe me u will be happy.
