Hi all,

My Red Hunk is around 7000 km old so I thought I should write a review based on my experiences. I am 6’2" tall - & I wanted to go for a 150cc bike.. I had shortlisted these following
bikes Unicorn, hunk/cbz, pulsar, Apache.

I had driven Pulsar and found that pickup wise it was good. I learn that over a period of time it becomes expensive to maintain and also there are so many pulsar’s in Bangalore roads - so novelty factor is missing now!! Read this review on Hunk Vs Pulsar from bikeadvice.in (http://bikeadvice.in/hero-honda-hunk-vs-bajaj-pulsar-150cc-dtsi/)

I find that Apache may not be comfortable for tall people because of sporty riding position which can tire you soon. Since Unicorn/hunk/cbz share the same engine I went by looks & comfort. Unicorn is really good vehicle - especially full black version looks great!! But the overall it looks very plain - I thought it does not have that macho feeling!! Coming to Hunk - Looks are good (depends on individual perception though) and it is has a comfortable seating position. It may be heavy but it is extremely stable at high speeds. Finally I went for a red one! Now I do not regret my decision & I am getting a decent mileage of 45+ on bangalore roads.



Pros
1) Comfortable seating position
2) Less engine noise even at good speeds
3) Looks
4) No digital console (I find this as a Pro because I learn that maintenance of digital console is costly than a analog one)
5) More than above it is backed by Hero Honda service available all round.


Cons
1) Back seat is very small and not very comfortable.
2) Head light focus is not good.
3) No LED tail lamp

I would suggest 150 cc bike seekers to test ride this bike defintely and come to a decision!!
