    Pipes are nice, shame about the thing they're attached to.
    I'm sure it will be fast as hell and wicked to ride, but it sure as hell is ugly.

    Isn't it strange how it's the ugly bikes that seem to develop something of a cult following as time goes on. The Hayabusa is a good example. Many thought it was an ugly beast. Some may say it still is but it has certainly attracted a pretty loyal following. The Katana was very much the same when it first appeared. I have a feeling the B King will be the same.

    I guess it's almost a foregone conclusion that an ugly bike will develop a cult following as it tends to polarise opinions for and against.

    I've been a cult follower of this bike since I first saw it... Nadroj's avatar... I have a ride teed up on one as soon as it comes in.

    I like it. I'm sure I'll like it more once I've ridden it.
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    they not 100% sure on pricing last i heard from my local dealer, who knows i am keen on one, and we already have an 08 busa on order for father in law.

    In the USA b-king is more expensive but in england they are same price, so

    Mmm cant remember the exact figures, but according to my local, the BKing was going to be about $1000 more expensive than the busa, with the busa being around (err, i'm a goldfish, so approximately) $22k. Dont take that as gospel however.
