    Thank goodness that TTS sell superchargers for these bikes

    The phrase is "there is no replacement for displacement." See, it rhymes, that's the trick. (source: spending too much time around HD riders who do not understand the concept of RPM and Horsepower).

      True but Suzuki is in an ugly underpowered sport touring bike phase currently with gsx1000gsxtgt…++ 😂. Doubt they will do anything cool with hyabusa. We are lucky they threw technology at the current busa😂😂

      Modern critics:
      "Too heavy"
      "Too slow"
      "Too ugly"
      "Too much tech"
      "Not enough tech"
      "Bad headlight look"
      "Too tall"
      "No cruise control"

    Interesting vid. Odd to think that Suzuki were ahead of their time (for once) with the first hyper naked. The concept looked great but the reality less so. Although if they had another crack it now (which they won't) it could well be a success.

    I had one for 7.5 years. Fantastic bike, although because I was out of the country a lot, I only did 40,000 km on it. Too fast for me, truth to tell, but the engine is wonderfully tractable. 265 kg. Nick

    Why a B-King is better than a Hayabusa?
    1. Digital dashboard
    2. 200mm rear tyre
    3. Longer wheelbase
    4. More comfortable upright riding position
    5. Unique front panels indicators and headlights.

    I always thought it was odd how the supersport segment wasn't homologous across Japanese manufacturers or even within their own model lineup at the time in order to capitalize on production costs for these engines
    Kawasaki had the 1400GTR (sport tourer) and the ZX-14 (supersport), but no naked ZX-14
    Honda briefly had the Blackbird (supersport), but no sport tourer or naked with this engine
    Yamaha had the FJR1300 (sport tourer), but no supersport or naked with this engine
    Suzuki has the Hayabusa (supersport) and briefly had the B-King (naked) but no sport tourer with this engine
    It's almost as if they weren't really competing with each other at all

    The bking is NOT a naked version of the hayabusa 🤣🤣 it's a completely different bike, longer wheel base, completely different frame and swing arm and a lot more thats unfamiliar to the busa, only similarities is the engine, but even then it runs a different output shaft thant he bisa by 5mm, the engine doesn't make the model of the bike.

    Nice podcast I do enjoy it keep up the good work back in 2003 had a test ride on a b king and a sv1000n as I had to get rid of my old bike as it was coming up to its second MOT love the power delivery on b king but the sv was so much nicer down the country lanes and to show how much I enjoyed it I still have it 21 years later 😅😅

    Remembering when the BK was introduced in the US. Man it was something with a face only a mother would love.
    I absolutely agree that Suzuki should introduce something similar but with a complete redesign. The engine is a complete monster.

      It looks dated. The design hasn’t aged well. The gen1 busa looks better. I would just get a gen1 and add bar risers plus full crash protection. Same sport touring setup plus excellent wind protection
