    What a difference a set of cans make.

    A bloke i sort of know off another forum recently bought a B-King and posted up these pics of it,new cans certainly help a lot in the looks department.

    I rode Welly Motorcycles one with Two Brothers pipes on it.

    Made the bike look ten times better and the sound too - downright antisocial. I loved it.

    It was worth winding the throttle on and backing off just to watch the general public look to see where the popping explosions were coming from.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    It's a coupla hundred percent better looking. I never did like flares....even in the seventies.

    Is that Steve Vegas-Gigayte? His B-king has an identical set-up. I heard them at a Moto track day at Taupo and just recently as he mono'd it leaving my place. He loves his ones, they sound good.
    I reckon they need to be about 100mm shorter, but his bum hangs too close over the back.....

    That bike could come with a free moon and I still wouldn't like it.

    Yer the TBR's are a bit long. The yoshi's look perfect, they're shorter and damn sexy.

    Wellington Motorcycles currently has a B-King with the TBR cans and tail-tidy in their front window. I reckon it looks megaly better than the standard B-King, and those TBRs should sound sweet.

    TBR for the muthafuckin' win.



    Steve's Burger King with the TBR cans is silver, IIRC, not black, and he's on KB.

    The B-King's the perfect bike for the man, though, aye. I pillioned him on Betty once. Totally unintentional wheelies away from traffic lights? Priceless.
