Default gs or hunk

hello everyone,
i am 18 and going for a bike in 2 months and want power, RELIABILITY and a mileage of 45kmpl.i will use it for 5 years.
rtr is no since it is very small.
pulsar again no since it has reliability issues.
r15,fz,fazer no bcz of reliability factor.
cbzx no since i think hunk is better than it.

i am 5feet 10 inches 75kg in wieght.

parents not agreeing for zma r because of mileage factor.

guys this a very crucial decision and i need your each and every help from you all.

i dont tour too much.
i think hunk has decent power for city and i can easily overtake any bike.
how is the stability and i hope it doesn't slip at corners.

hunk has anti puncture tyres please explain.

gs150r has rusting issues and mileage is not upto the mark.
is gs faster than hunk in 0-100 speed.
which one has good brakes and grip.

maintenance wise which one is cheaper.

please help.

Just pick the bike that appeals to your heart the most. Both of them are very good at their duty, reliability and blah blah blah.

Both are equals. However, I would choose Hunk over GS150, because of the service reach. The handling of Hunk is better than GS150 in city.

Take a test ride before taking the call.

Just do a test drive of both the bikes and go for the one which you like.Deciding between the above mentioned bikes is a very tough decision.Please don't go by the 0-60,80,100 timings or the top speed figures.These are not of much use in routine life.Both of them are equally competent and reliable.I am using Hero Honda Hunk for the past 15 months and done 12K.It has great performance,handling and the mileage is about 40-50 (overall).I had no issues with the bike what so ever.HH service is good all tough not great.

Post.S:Also consider Extreme.There is no difference between Hunk and Extreme.
Both have same mills and the have identical performance/refinement/character.Hunk is a bit more comfortable due to Gas suspension while Extreme is a bit easier to maneuver due to absence of tank shrouds.

Tough decision dude !
GS scores over hunk in mileage, digital console , better headlamp and gearing.
Hunk scores on Power , looks , comfort, good HH service & Price.

Go for the GS if you want pleasant city-riding otherwise the bull is your thing!

go for the hunk blindly my friend.
ur height suits the bike perfectly. gs wont do good in that.
manuvering is easy in gs for sure. but reliability of a hh engine n service of the same is much better compared to the gs.
i think hunk will do good for u. ask other experts wat they say about the tech aspects. and the milage is almost the same for both bikes +-2.

the hunk looks great, though the GS is the bike if you wanna have something different from the rest of the crowd.

The hunk is more sporty, and the GS is more commuter.

Performance wise they are quite well matched, but the extra 6th gear on the GS makes driveability more easier.
