2008 Suzuki B-King Test Ride

[Hitcher]

I thought the B-King was great in the tight/slow. Check your front tyre pressure?

Agree there, Hitcher. Definitely very flickable in the tight/slow stuff (ie going around Evans Bay to Oriental Bay corners).
Felt very nice & tracked well.

So, agreed, that one must need some tweaking.

Well with a bit of tweaking and a bit of get use to the bike i think it would be great, but i am use to a very different bike which is also 60kgs+ lighter.

Good Review-- what is the seat height?

Pete at Wellington Motorcycles was trying to get me to take their one for a test ride, I figured it'd be a bad idea, odds of getting the ride done without ending up with a speeding ticket would just be too hard on a monster like that.

Phil Turnbull's in Palmerston North have a demo B-King with Yoshi's and a tail tidy, the arse end is still ugly but holly hell does it sound good!
