[edit] 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.[2] The bike also features gas-charged adjustable rear shock absorbers and rear tire with a tuff-up tube.
[edit] Performance and fuel economy
The Hunk has the 149 cc engine used in Hero Honda CBZ X-treme,[3] with Advanced Tumble-Flow induction Technology (ATFT) which the company claims will reduce emissions and fuel consumption.[4] 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.
[edit] Visuals
Hunk features its own unique racing bull insignia on either side edges of the fuel tank.
[edit] Awards
The Hunk has won the NDTV Profit Car India & Bike India Awards Viewers’ Choice Award in the bike category.[5][6]
