Suzuki B-King

The verdict is still up in the air regarding the futuristic, dynamic looks of the Suzuki B-King. It seems you either hate it or love it. What can be said for sure is the B-King is very fast, enough to match a sports 1000. It�s just a shame it�s restricted to 150mph. The B-King is a lovely road motorcycle, has loads of torque and is easy to ride despite its size. It�s smooth, has good brakes and its only weakness is its soft rear, which results in a lack of traction when pushing really hard.The Suzuki B-King�s engine comes from the new Hayabusa and produces 164bhp with an arm-ripping 94.5 ftlb of torque. Over a standing quarter mile the B-King is just as quick as any sports 1000cc, if not quicker. Shame the engine is limited to 150mph as it has the potentially for much more.
