@Derek Frampton PaPa-D I have faith in rossi
@Derek Frampton PaPa-D I bought an r1 and then sold it because rossi is no more
I purchased a new B-King in 2008, and loved every mile of the 28k I rode it. It was totaled in an accident in 2013 and I’ve been sulking ever since. It was a funny thing back when it was introduced. No one knew what to think of it. The big magazines loved to hate it, but honestly seemed to be more confused on its intended purpose than anyone. They’d always end up posing it against bikes like the then new generation V-Max... a bike with a COMPLETELY different philosophy of use. In hindsight, Suzuki was bold to put it out there. The economic recession of ‘08 didn’t help Sale’s whatsoever, and by 2009-2010, dealers were begging to sell the remaining 08’s for peanuts. Great bike. Love the channel, the message of Christ and your content. God bless.
Would the dealerships back then pay me to own it off showroom floor?
I can tell you by having owned a Hayabusa that 100 mph feels like 25 mph in a car. Key word "owned".
I don't get it. I'm slow like my old rebel 300. I just bought a 2007 fz1 so I'm still learning.
@@theenzoferrari458 The bike is made to go fast and it will do so very smooth and without effort. Therefore when you are going 100mph+ it feels like you are going much, much slower. Do the top speed of your Rebel 300 on your FZ1 and tell me they feel the same :)
Hayabusa another medium level bike in terms of power. Enough for the average consumer.
@@doosworld1901 Whatever, bud.
so, this is the famous B-king. I've heard a lot about this bike but first time that i see it. It looks pretty dope!!!
Is it as long as the busa?
@@Fee.1 nono ofc not :) this is a street
The best review of my bike I have seen. I have had it since February 2012. You are right. This makes a good touring bike. I even have a Hepco & Becker Gobi adventure style top case on it, and it looks okay because of the width of the rear end. It is exceptionally stable and what you didn't get over is how tractable the bike is at low speeds. I can ride through a Spanish village, typically about one mile long in top on no throttle opening, the torque is so strong. It has to be the best naked inline four ever made. I have read about owners who have done 80,000 miles and they have never had to shim the valve clearances.
You're going 100 mph at 5,000 rpm in top, just to get things right.
Your best review so far.
I'm 6'5" and I changed stock foot pegs to buell pegs that lower them 2 inches and now my knees fit perfect behind the air ducts.
I'm 6'1 and I have a slight problem thx for the tip
@@skyloryates60 check out pegs from Knight Industries.
It cannot be overstated enough. This bike was way before it's time and is an incredible "do everything" machine. Mine has 70000 kms on it and counting. no issues. One of the best for low speed manners also.
"New Pole? Good! That old one sucked!!" That was pretty good. Had me laughing!
I've owned mine from new since 2008 and have clocked over 100,000km. I bought the all black with no abs and replaced the exhaust with two brothers. There's no way I'd ever sell my beast king.
There was a time in my life I enjoyed going max twist now , however in my sixties I don't mind just chugging around on my sportster. Funny how time will mellow us out. Stay safe and upright.
Agreed.
As a B-King owner, I can attest to a few pleasant aspects.
A: Upright seating position.
B: Seat itself is comfortable.
C: Controllable fury. Mellow, or Malevolent, your choice.
Lowered pegs, Airhawk inflatable seat cushion, and if wanted a windscreen, make for an exceptional long range rider.
BTW: The ladies love them. The passenger accommodations however; are found wanting.
I don't see how you could hold onto that bike if you really opened it up, without a serious wind screen.
Lean forward, chest to tank.
The headlamp assembly does provide limited wind protection.
A person at Hayabusa.org hit 181 in the standing mile on a B-King.
Not an easy task, one will feel the breeze.
Breathing in Sulphur Farting Rose scented Pixy Dust how do they handle in turns and what not
On the Road/Street? Surprisingly nimble.
And, stable.
Not LiterBike agile, no.
Yet on rough Asphalt Anaconda infested roads....
The King holds it's own against any pretenders to the throne.
Including, Super Motards & Adv Tourers.
Parking lots? It's a large bike, both in dimension and mass. Add a non adjustable Steering Damper to the equation=No, The King is no "Blacktop Ballerina" by any measure.
Interesting, My B-King came with automatic folding mirrors too!
the design of this motorbike was a decade ahead at the time, which is why it was not in demand at that time
Awesome bike, I've had mine for about two years now. Future classic!!! As a super naked the Bking was ahead of its time.
Too right, it's only ever going to go up in value if looked after.
Back in 1969-1971 I was the staff photographer of Cycleguide and later the editor of Custom Chopper Magazine. In another life, I bought a B King new in 2008, liked it so much I bought a low mileage used second one to customize and make a bit louder. Had custom paint etc, but I usually kept riding the stocker. Actually it's not that wide, and that tank is not the gas tank, it holds the air box. The tank is lower down for better balance and handling. This bike has one feature I always considered important if available. You can stand up straight on it. Nice when you want to stretch or dry off after riding through a rainstorm. The actual performance figures are 0-60 in 2.9, quarter 9.9 @140. I did take it all the way to the governed 158, in fourth of six gears. For some reason, the top end (remember, governed, drops off slightly in 5th and 6th). Then, in a period of insanity I traded them both in on a Slingshot so I could take my wife riding. But I never gave up two wheels, I still ride a Victory Octane at 86 years of age. Now here's bit I'm adding a month later. Both my boys rode my King, loved it, but did not enjoy riding it that much. Reason? They said it was no fun to know you have the fastest bike around and that no one can touch you. Said it was more fun to ride like..my Honda 500 four or something like a Triumph twin. Why? It's fun to have to work to stay ahead or catch another bike. Go figure.
2007/2008 was perfection for Suzuki sport bikes
K8 1000, best looking bike eva, with both side small aftermarket exhaust.
2006-2008*
K5 gixxer=God of sport bikes....
05-08;)
Nah K9 models was the best looking bike Suzuki ever made
the first-time ive seen this bike ...
I just bought one. 2 words. “Love it “ she gives me a rush every time ,,,, nice video
That bike is awesome!! My first time ever seeing one.
I wanted one sooo bad when they came out. Picked up a Black non-abs version with 347 miles 7 years ago. Just put Pirelli Dual Compound 200mm Tires on it and now it finally handles like a sport bike. Just under 6000 miles. It is a blast just to fire up and look at or crack the throttle and grin from ear to ear.
In 2008, I had the choice of the GSF1250/S Bandit or the B-King at my dealership. I chose the Bandit because it was more comfortable ergonomically for me. I wasn't a fan of the tank wings hanging out that I had to fit my knees under. I've had many bikes in my 72 years including the 2001 GL-1800 Gold Wing, the 2007 Triumph Rocket III Classic, 2006 Honda PS-250 Big Ruckus, 2007 Kawasaki KLR-650 & the 2011 Kawasaki 650 Versys, all registered & on the road simultaneously. Now I have only two left; the Bandit & the 2017 Triumph Bonneville Bobber high torque 1200, but I haven't found anything wrong with this pair of 1200's yet. They both keep me giggling inside my helmet when I ride them. I think the Bandit is the best kept secret out there; 150+ mph & 59mpg.
Another best kept secret Barry is the Victory Octane, only made one year, 2017. 1200 ccs 105 horses 525 wet. It goes and it is comfortable. But only one year cause Victory was owned by Indian and they were competing with themselves so bye bye Octane and hello Indian Scout (identical, 5 horses less). I wrote the B king comments topside, but now I have my Octane and I love it. Victory's only liquid cooled bike by the way and also it's fastest.
I owned one, an ‘08 model. I put Yoshi exhaust on it, Corbin saddle, Sato Racing rear-sets, billet mirrors, it was gorgeous. It wasn’t a particularly comfortable bike, but it was bloody quick. I do miss that bike.
Such a cool bike! The local dealer had a new one back in the day. I use to drool over it weekly. Alas, I've always been a used-bike-fix-it-my-selfer. Thanks for showing it off!
I'm happy with my scruffy bikes. Better to have a well maintained scruff than a poorly maintained shiny motorcycle. I have no time for posing with my bike.
If Batman needed to rent a motorcycle for a day, it would be a Bee King :)
If it was yellow where the silver is, it could be nicknamed Bumblebee...
It would be the vmax
That’s the first time I have ever seen a bike like that and I really like it. I wish they would bring it back! Comfortable riding position with much power is awesome! Naked bikes are my favorite. I have a 2019 Z900.
David Harrison Z900 is no joke either. I want one
I have had one of these since 2011 and it is an awesome bike. Mine made about 159 rwhp in 100 °F weather with nothing but a slip-on exhaust.
I’ve never heard of that bike but it looks good and I’m a big fan of the Hayabusa!! Busa Bro!!
Holy shirt that's guey as hell
That's awesome!!!! I've never seen one of those. Yeah, the Hayabusas are so smooth and refined. I still remember how it feels. Way smoother than my current FJR1300 for sure. And you're right, as soon as I saw it I was like should I buy one???
Just something about the FJR and that jetliner grunt of power out of a corner. I love the shaft sound, just like bike from Tron.
I bought this motorcycle yesterday, it also has abs. Comfortable and easy to ride. I love it
Bar end mirrors, sliders and change exhaust. She is a 10 😎
@5:43 "if you buy a bike like this, you better know where you're going." Had me dying😂😂😂
I guess Sean forgot about the vmax.
got a 2008 B King today and I can tell you it is very easy to ride! The throttle is so controllable and the motor is smooth af. Not an advanced riders bike at all!
The only contender for my next bike.
You've just convinced me that I need one
Make sure your will is updated.
_"Although if you're real tall, like 7 feet tall, you just might just not have enough room in here."_
Yeah, I bet 7 foot tall people have never had that problem before.
One of most ugliest bikes ever!
Predrag Kardashian nobody asked
This is/was my dream bike, and I’ve had mine for 2 years now. The best thing about it, is that nobody knows what it is! Anywhere you go, people will ask “what is that thing??”.
It’s also fun to catch people off guard when they wanna do a pull 😂
Got one today. It's a blast to drive.
One of the coolest bikes I've never heard of. With some updates it would definitely be a contender today. As an older bike it's perfect for someone wanting something rare and different, but with today's power.
That is something I really like is to have a bike few other people have....Typically about 15 years old or so. Suzuki TL1000S, Kawasaki ZRX 1200, Now a Triumph Speed Triple, which oddly enough of all the bikes I ever had this is the one people seem to like the best, I have gotten more compliments and comments on it than all other bikes I owned put together... It's a 2000 Model in Roulette Green ... so I think that pulls people in.
Got one now, its incredible. All black and comfortable. Ive had it for about 6 years, bought from original owner he was scared of it. 400 miles on it when i purchased it. It feels like it accelerates harder than my 02 Busa. But probably because of the serious windblast lol.
When you buy a bike like this, you better know where you're goin...I love it, great quote
The OG hypernaked bike.
Words of wisdom 5:29 My favorite part 🙏🏾
had one , I hated to sell it but it was the first bike I rode for two years and sold to a dealership that REALLY wanted it , it is crazy fast and powerful ;-)
Watching this Video because I am pre shopping for my next bike. I typically buy 10- 15 yr old bikes in good shape for cheap. Currently running a 2000 Speed Triple... I think I will keep it. Looking at the XR1200, KTM950 SM for fun..... HD Softail Deluxe, Road king, or Moto Guzzi Eldorado for cruising.... Or Moto Guzzi Stelvio NTX or BMW 1150 GS if I want to do offroad exploring. I remember these B-Kings. I like the looks of it and the presence - it's a beast. I don't think I will put it on my short list to consider as cool as it is I think the Speed Triple covers similar territory as far as riding as this does. Thank's for the Video.
Got to ride this at demo days when it was new SAF one of my favorite Suzukis ever made and in my top 20 bikes.
I've never realized how big this bike actually is. It's chunky but cool.
Man I love your channel. You've sold me on a hayabusa that's for sure.
The B-King is my kinda bike. Love the handlebars and feel of the bike with that engine. I want to buy one.
My buddy has one of these. Awesome video to hear all the extra info, I had so many questions in my head haha
Awsome show. Love your verse reading. good job.
i got mine right out of the box in 08 and i still ride it today. ive put a ton of mods on it as well as going so far as too add noz. ill keep it till it dies.
Suzuki should bring this monster back, it will be great. Instead they brought back a bad resemblance of the katana wich is most plastic fairings. I always wanted it
Love my B king great in the twistys and the power leaves plenty of Superbike riders scratching there heads as you leave them for dust 😜
I want it so bad. I didn't remember how much I loved that bike till I seen you had one.
Awesome beginner bike! Jk, imagine the B King with the current modern electronics packages. Lean angle abs, new traction control systems and anti wheelie plus better modes. Now this becomes a different bike. Not sure if the BKing has the same throttle response as the Hyabusa, but I don't remember the Hyabusa having a ridiculously touchy response like current rockets. Plus, there are bikes flooding the market with over 200hp that weigh 415 and up. The new S1000RR, GSXR, Ducati V4 plus a few I'm missing.
Owned one of these back in the day .. loved this machine it was a real tire melting monster.
That is wicked looking..😎
Owned an 08 Autobot (Bking) model & put about 25k miles on it before trading it. Ridiculously stupid hard acceleration! The exhaust was the first aftermarket replacement item.
I really liked the B-King even though most riders felt the other way. I was debating between this and a VMax and I eventually went with the VMax because I couldn't find a B-King that I liked at the time. It is really amazing this bike after all those years has less than 300 miles. I am usually a bit against a bike having too low of a mileage for its age because it's likely to have suffered the 2nd worst thing that can happen to a motorcycle......it was not ridden for long periods and just sat.
It's a B--King. Just sayin'
@@countryjoe3551 Ha-hah, I knew it didn't seem right when I wrote it but I was too tired to think further. Thanks for pointing it out. Good thing I didn't write "B-Queen"
@@Turco949 😂😂😂
I love this motorcycle!
Man...this bike is really insane to ride...Im a big fan for the beast called king!!!
I’ve been looking for one of those bikes for almost 3 years now I wish I would’ve been a subscriber to your channel back when you guys first got this bike I would’ve totally bought it there so rare because there wasn’t many of them made where they were a one time thing with the Hayabusa engine. I’ve been a subscriber for almost 8 months now and I love your content and what you guys do I plan on buying a bike off you guys and would love to come see the shop when I do get ready to come buy a bike I’ve been saving up for a while now and trying to find the right one just for me.
This bike properly tuned STILL EATS any Super Duke and Tuono, it's a monster.
I totally forgot about this bike!! I had a poster of this bike when I was a teenager
Love my Bking! It's my forever bike.
Ive got an 08 fz1 and out of all the bikes ive owned its been the most versatile bike ive owned. Its great for long trips and its got more power then your 600 supersport bikes, It handles the corners way better then my ninja 650 did.
I never new this bike existed. Thanks your in love with it. I mean performance motorcycles
The ranting and raving in your reviews are what keeps me coming back for more lol
I love the fact you read the Bible before starting and that verse will surely save when you on a fast thing. I just subscribed
"stock street fighter"....... now there's an oxymoron ;-)
How so? Please explain.
Stripple70 If you think that is an oxymoron, then what do you call a Ducati Streetfighter?
And that's not all. Ducati told Bomber Magazine's test rider "No wheelies or burn outs!" Like wft, it's supposed to be a streetfighter.
I now a Vmax 1700 and would love to have a Suzuki being. I love the sound of engine and it seems smoother than the max. I would never sell my vmax
Tank might look huge but its just plastic. Actual tank only hold 4.4 Gallons (16.5liters). Hayabusa holds more than that. Still an awesome bike though.
Artificial tank doesn't just hold petrol, it holds awesomeness.
The front half is the Airbox. 9.5 Liters.
that bike looks bad ass if there was a smaller pipe
9:00 "Drive slow". :D
I've always wondered whatever happened to this bike. It wasn't then most beautiful bike for my liking but it definitely was different. Now it's proportion makes kuch more sense.
Hi guys big fan of the vids, My mate had a Busa and i had a zx6r ninja so we were out 1 day and thought how much faster is the Busa than my Ninja , Well all i can say is we were both doing 70 MPH and said 1-2-3 go in the blink of an eye he was gone i literally thought he had done a turbo without telling me it was THAT FAST in standard guise. Im about to get the 19 model MT07 and turbo it so i will be doing my first youtube vid of buying the bike doing the turbo instal then taking it to my mate who has a dyno keep the vids coming PLEASE as they are SOO GOOD CHEERS SCOOBS UK.
"You're like a ninja...meow, meow, meow, meow...Nice bike!
I'm about to turn 60 and I agree with you I need this bike 😆😂, but I would change those cans
I like it because its unique. Im not a huge fan of naked bikes but i don't hate them either. This one, id love because of the look and insane power.
its great to hear your experience and all that which is good, but it would be good to have a follower or a leader with a gopro to capture the bike, how it looks and turns on the road - like Leno does. God bless you!
I love my oddball B-King, but my 2003 Z1000 was a much more fun motorcycle to ride, both wheelie happy and rolling into the curves.
It actually puts about the same to the ground as a Superduke (same torque too) or Tuono but weighs a LOT more and is a lot bigger. It would probably beat either in a drag just due to the weight and length letting it put more down without flipping.
I'm actually in the market for a clean B-King . Thier not all that rare but that (single owner under 1000mi) one is hard to come by . Wonder what it sold for ?
I own a B King, amazing bike. Just wanted to point out that insurance on this bike is significantly cheaper than a Busa/ZX14. Less produced = less claims = cheaper rates
@12:10 "me when the drive thru at chick fil-a is wide open"
I love that farmland. Farmers are the best folks around.
We need this model back. It’s scary cool.
THEBIGCHULETA Nah, makes those of us glad we bought a good example when we did. Yes.
I just can't get the idea behind those "transformer" headlights. I always preferred the circular headlights.
I dig the integrated turn signals
Im picking up a bking tomrrow with only 8k miles im holding onto it forever. Im getting it for a steal of a deal i cant believe it
the exhaust looks like its from mario kart haha
How do you have a video on every motorcycle I ever want to look up?!?!?!.... Well all except one.
Let meget this str8 . This will smoke a Vmax??? In a str8 line?
For sure getting an insurance quote on one of these tomorrow
I love my bking its a head turner- great video
Am I the only one that thinks this sounds like a dish you would order at an Asian restaurant? One B king with fried rice egg roll and hot and sour soup. I have seen a couple B kings and only wanted to buy one if I could modify it's fenders, exhaust, gearing and etc to make it more of a Cafe racer type look.
I remember sitting on one of these in the dealership long ago.
Ride a ZRX1200 next! This class of bike used to be called a Muscle Bike- they are more relevant today than at the time.
so this birthed the naked street fighter? or maybe ducati
just checked your site, it's not in the inventory. Has it sold already?
