I love it if I hadn't have gone for my b-king that is what I would have gone for

Go on the Irish, only problem there is I have three brothers

Thanks for the welcome in my thread, so heres a welcome for you

I see you still have the oe exhausts on your bike is that a peronal choice or are the laws very strict down there? Here in Ireland we don't have nct tests(mot) on bikes, but for how ever long more I dont know.

Hello fellow noob

VP2's are avons, got them on my z1000, had them on my SV650 and will need another pair some time next year on the zed.. Cracking tyres. And for me to stick to one tyre on more than one bike is saying something

The original Dunlop Qualifiers fitted to the B-King
are not the same as some of the aftermarket Dunlop Qualiers.

They look the same, size, pattern and name, but...

The tyres on my bike were "Made in Japan", after market were "Made in USA".
One was 3 ply, one was 4 ply,
the aftermarket USA tyre had noticably better grip / maybe softer compound.

I've heard dunlops are crap on the bking, and so are BT015's ( or 16, can't remember )? same as whats fitted as standard to the busa. the VP2 Sports are a good mix of long life and performance, or the supersport/xtreme if wear isnt a problem. Ovc the other brilliant option for the bking if you want a longer lasting tyre is the metzeler m5's or the Pirelli ( what paul probs has? ) Diablos =]

Well Dave, well wear with the King, I have my one just over two years and love it, alot of mods done for power gain but the down side is she ates rear tyres( 4 rear tyres in 6thousand miles or so!!!!) If your bike has dunlop qualifiers be very carefull on cold/damp roads as they are a bitch to heat up. On pirelli at the mo and the best millage i got was 1800miles now while I am fond of twisties and the trottle i dont do burnouts or any thing like that.

Also check your speedo out as they are way off the mark.

Any way best of luck with her and i love the colors

Hi guys, stumbled across this site on a b-king forum. Well as ye guess by the title I'm here in the Rep Of Ireland, North Cork to be precise.

Now as for my bike it's a Suzuki GSX1300bk(B-king) I have a few bits done to it as in De-cated, k+n filter gearing changed to 17/45. Clear Clutch cover thats not worth a wank with our climate, keeps creaming up. Titax short leavers, Prower Bronze carbon front mud gaurd, under tray, GP race cans off a K8 gixxer 1000 exup valve removed.

Had on a Dyno earlier this year & was well pleased as it put out 184bhp at the rear where as std is 151bhp.

Any way hello to every one
