Hero Hunk and the Honda CB Unicorn Dazzler are two wonderful bikes in the 150cc segment. Although the Hunk has been around for a much longer time, it has not taken the Dazzler much time to catch up to the Hunk in terms of popularity.
To start with, let us start with the comparison of the two bikes on the specs
| Spec | Hero Hunk | Honda Dazzler |
|---|---|---|
| Displacement | 149.2cc | 149.1cc |
| Max Power | 10.6 kW | 10.44 kW |
| Max Torque | 12.80 Nm @ 6500 rpm | 12.74 Nm @ 6500 rpm |
| Front Brake | 240mm Disc Dia | 240mm Disc Dia |
| Rear Brake | 220mm Disc Dia | 220mm Disc Dia |
| Ground Clearance | 145mm | 162mm |
| Kerb weight | 146 kg | 138 kg |
| Fuel Tank Capacity | 12.4 liters | 12 liters |
| Reserve | 2.2 liters usable | N/A |
The difference between the two specs is pretty marginal on most counts. It is only with ground clearance and kerb weight where you find any significant difference between the two.
Mileage Comparison
Both the Hunk and Dazzler have similar engines although the Hunk is expected to pull 8kgs more than the Dazzler at any point due to its inherently higher kerb weight. This could pull the mileage marginally down. Despite that, the official claim on the mileage of the Hunk is higher than Honda CB Unicorn Dazzler. Hero claims the Hunk can draw 65.1 kmpl while Honda says the Dazzler can offer only 60 kmpl of fuel economy. Do note that both these claims are under standard test conditions.
Let’s look at what the neutral reviewers have to say. According to MaxAbout that has reviewed both the bikes, the Hero Hunk is expected to deliver 52-58 kmpl on city roads whereas the Honda CB Unicorn Dazzler can extract a lower 50 kmpl under similar conditions. On Highways though, both the bikes are seen to deliver similar economies at 60 kmpl.
BikeAdvice has an alternate take on this comparison. In their reviews, they report the fuel economy on city roads to be somewhere between 45-50 kmpl on the Hunk while the same has been pegged at 48 kmpl from Dazzler. While the website does not have a number for the highways mileage from Hunk, they say customers can see close to 62 kmpl on highways from Unicorn Dazzler.
On MouthShut, the 210+ reviews for the Hunk rate the bike 4/5 on fuel consumption. A similar rating is offered by the 75+ Dazzler reviewers. However when it comes to putting down a number against the fuel consumption column, Hero Hunk customers have reported varying mileages between 45-55 kmpl on their bike while customers of Honda Dazzler have a more consistent report of the city mileage to be between 48-52 kmpl.
Here is a tabled report of the comparison:
| Source | Hero Hunk | Honda Dazzler |
|---|---|---|
| Official | 65.1 | 60 |
| MaxAbout | 52-58 | 50 |
| BikeAdvice | 45-50 | 48 |
| MouthShut | 45-55 | 48-52 |
Honda Dazzler great bike in Japani technology. Dimond frem, monosuspension, pillion ride,no back pain for long ride, good handling but HONDA did not chose the colour where CBR series found the texture but Dazzler failed colour option. So Honda lets make a colour texture for DAZZLER. chandan kazi
Honda dazzler is much better than hero hunk in each and every way.. This review seems biased.
