    yes.. u are right.. they share the same beats.. but i have read(not my personal experience) that hunk is a little sluggish compared to extreme.. and thats why its able to churn more miles in a litre of petrol..
    i was just suggesting a better mileage bike as his main usage was commutation..
    correct me if i am wrong because all this data is based on the posts i have read in various threads.. i have personal experience of Uni and GS, thats all.. rest i have read here and there..
    I like to meditate a lot.. On my BIKE!

      Mileage depends on too many factors to generalise it.

      No two bikes would ever return the same mileage, be it the same make, same model ,same batch.

      Hunk and Xtreme return similar figures. But much lesser than the Uni.
      When everything comes ur way, u r in the wrong way ;)

          Thanks for the suggestions

          I had a Test ride of HH Hunk, its a bit weight but could manage.
          Is this model a failure becoz the see it very rarely on the road.
          I had considered the Suzuki GS150, but there is no dealer in Vizag.
          Now also considering the HH Glamour.
          What is your opinion?


          Thanks again for all the feedback.

                I am planning to buy an 150 CC bike. Previously I drive HH splendor.
                Now looking for an upgrade. I am very confused with lots of options.

                1. I am 5feet 5 inch and weighs 84Kg so for my build which bike will suit.
                2. My budget is around 65k.
                3. Purpose of the bike is mostly commuting and once in a month long drive.
                4. Is HH Hunk is a good option for me.

                Touring in a HH Glamour will be a little difficult than other mentioned bikes and it is not a fun bike to ride at all, performance-wise. Go for it only if you have super mileage in your mind.

                Since the GS150 is not available, I would suggest the Hunk, which is a better looker than the CBZ-X.

                  Yeah, If 125cc is what you want, I recommend Yamaha Gladiator RS/SS for touring purpose ... Glamour shouldn't be on your mind.

                  Hunk is a bit under-geared compared to Xtreme. It should have good acceleration, and strong mid-range, but lesser mileage when compared to CBZ-X, in open areas atleast ... and top speed is the least, around 107 kmph real.


                  My Another Suggestion is that Test Ride the new Pulsar 150, take it upto 6-8 krpm and see if it vibrates or not ... If Ride Quality has improved, take it as an option. After all, improvement was seen in P180 recently.

                    @chirunvv : Never compromise your comfort, I have seen some people buying wrong bikes and then repenting. If you are comfortable with HH Glamour go ahead and buy it, see other 125cc as well like Yamaha Gladiator, I think Gladiator is 125cc segments' 'best'.
                    If I were built like you I would probably go for Honda Dio Scooter !!

                                Thank you all for your suggestions.

                                Can you please suggest at which RPM should I change the gears.
                                I am comfortable changing the gears from 0 to 4. But getting confused from 4 to 0. In high traffic I am changing into neutral and this causes problems.
                                May I need to get used to this gear changes.
