The 2008 GSX1300BK B-King has rightfully been touted the Hayabusa's cousin, and this is already more than enough to make you interested. Basically, the B-King is a naked Busa, with a modified version of the 1340cc engine and a more manageable transmission. The response to the throttle and steering have been also tweaked to comply with the rigors of another riding style.


With stronger low-end power and dual riding modes, one can choose the way the GSX1300BK B-King behaves, for casual or sportier conditions. The frame and swingarm are new, and the GSX1300BK B-King is also equipped with radial calipers and powerful brakes.
