Davehutch-hutchs 0 Posted September 29, 2011 there are still some around alot of dealers have them , the trouble is I need to find some one who has one as a trade in so I can test ride one , rang round and dealers have took my number to ring me if they get one in , up to now the only place I have found is street bikes brum , was hoping to find a test ride a little bit closer ,I may not like it when i have tried it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fr499y 0 Posted September 29, 2011 tbf if you liked the power and weight of the busa, but not the position, you will love the B-king. The bars are higher so more like your bandit in that respect, but the pegs are back a tad more so you got the more sporty riding position but still with high bars! Power is supposedly a little less due to being in a naked bike but still enough to go from 0-*SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pugeyed 0 Posted September 29, 2011 take is the busa and the b king use the same engine then matt? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fr499y 0 Posted September 29, 2011 Yes, same engine but uses different inlet/exhaust system to the busa, which lowers the power slightly ( 181BHP from the bking ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
