Hi, I ride a HUNK!


You wouldnt want to say that to the fair sex, would you? Im sure Hero Honda never thought about this when they came up with the.. err... "HUNK"!
The news first broke out on www.xbhp.com quite sometime back. The name of the bike was right, but details werent. Anyways, HH finally launched this "old wine in a new bottle" bike yesterday in Delhi.
It is powered by the same 150cc CBZ-Xtreme engine (pumping out 14.2bhp). Everything remains the same : The engine, chassis, running parts etc, but whats different is the way this bike (im not gonna type "hunk" again) looks. The CBZ-Xtreme had a weird front end, and this one has a far better one. Ditto for the massive scoops and the exhaust. Overall, there is a dramatic improvement in the way the bike looks.

The bike will go on sale at a price of Rs 55,000 ($1375) for the kick start and Rs 57,000 ($1425) for the disc version (ex-showroom, Delhi).

Im not photoshop guy, just played around with the images I could lay my hands on from xBhp, Rearset.blogspot.com and 2007hunk.blogspot.com
