I've got 1200 miles on mine now and it really is an amazing bike. Too bad it was canceled so quickly. I think word of mouth would have eventually made this bike a huge success in the long term. I've seen other bikes like the ER-6n start to get a few of the styling cues. (radiator protectors look very similar to my eye) I think it was just ahead of it's time by a few years. Oh well. Now it's fast, agile, comfortable and soon to be rare and collectible.
Welcome to the future. I own a 2009 B King Street Xtreme and it should have never been canceled. It truely is one of the most amazing bikes there is. Look at all the hypernakeds being sold since like 5 years. It was way ahead of its time. Underrated. The way it just feels like a beast and pulls like a maniac. It is way better than some of the new hypernakeds and the best part is, it is super rare now especially the Street Xtreme edition. Mine has 20k kilometers on the clock now and looks and feels brand new. 14 years old but i think it was so far ahead of its time that 2023 isn’t even ready for the B-King yet.
kids! just a note to say i just finish a ride out with all sort of sport bikes in my Bking 2008 (This included GSX 750 and 1000)... for some reason I was always leading on all type of English roads... the more skilled riders where able to keep up with me that is been my only bike so far and considering I just got my driving license in Jan this year... I cant compare with any other bike cuz i have not riden any other one and I have not desires to do it any ways...
181.5 hp, guys. 480 hp would prevent you from riding on two wheels 90% of the time. I'm from America, and I heard 181.5--the only difference is that I'm not an idiot.
The HP bit at about 1.25 min blew me away too as the only factory bike I know of to put out 500 hp is a BOSS HOSS,he does say "full 181 hp" if you listen closely. UGDrift get your ears checked.Accent means Jack Shit.
This bike is $18,990.00 in Australia.About time some a bike maker came up with a decent naked HP bike instead of all those lay down fairy-ing,lay over the tank bikes.Bring back the old style Kawa 900 ride with todays power and technology I say.Been waitin for sumpthin like this for a TOY to go with my FXDL.Cant wait to get one.Yam xjs 1300,Kawa 1300,Suzi 1400 etc,dont come close,V-MAX Yam heaps power but new model looks like shit I.M.O..Can buy 1400 suzi for $14000,100hp,give me B-KING
if your gonna talk get it right US production only has stoped, thank god there is a word outside our borders.. People think they need GSXR or R! to be happy same idiots that have never seen a track nor have even come close to what any bike over 600CC can do.
i think the design sucks! the original concept model presented in 2001 was the best looking bike on earth! how did they manage to come up with this tractor instead, i will never understand?! and given the price, i no longer want to have one.

181.5 hp, google power
is this bike more expensive than the 2008 hayabusa?
Now or 13 years ago
Odd how this bike weighs more than a Hayabusa..
Balls.
Big *balls*
Those extra pounds are the balls and the hidden extra horsepower that is ready to unlock with an ECU flash and tune. But mostly the balls though.
if your gonna talk get it right
