Hero Hunk : The Hero Hunk has been one of the most desired bikes in India, rumoured to have a comeback from the legendary name. The motorcycle has been talked about as one of the most popular among Indian riders.

Speculation has it that the Hunk will return with modern features and a powerful engine. So let us take a closer look at the details of this rumor and see what the makers plan to offer.

A Modern Twist to a Classic

If the rumors are true, then the new Hero Hunk is said to be much different from its predecessor. The new bike would be a combination of classic styling and contemporary features.

Some of the speculated features include: Digital Instrument Cluster: Expect a fully digital instrument cluster that will provide the riders with the necessary information at a glance, including speed, fuel level, and trip meters.

Connectivity on the Smartphone

The newest bikes are getting more connected. This newest Hunk may have Bluetooth connectivity so that riders can pair their smartphone for navigation, music, and call functions.

Ride Modes: To accommodate different riders as well as riding conditions, it may come with ride modes that adjust power delivery and throttle response accordingly.

Dual Channel ABS: Safety comes first and this is sure to feature dual-channel ABS, eliminating any sort of hesitation during braking in whatever condition.

Engine and Performance

Powering this revived Hunk is likely a 149 cc, air-cooled, single cylinder. The motorcycle will likely offer a good dose of performance efficiency.

Although some power figures still haven’t officially been confirmed for the engine, it can at least be ascertained with some level of certainty that an ample dose of torque would definitely be provided with city riding and highway cruising.

Competition and Pricing

If the Hero Hunk will make a return, it shall be competing directly with the TVS Apache and Bajaj Pulsar. These machines have already settled well in their segment, considering that they seem to offer so much in relation to performance and value.

The hero hunk may, therefore be needed to offer unique aspects such as comfortability and an attractive outlook.
