New guy....

#1 Unread post by Good2bking »

Hey gang, glad I found this place. My name is Chad, I'm 36 and live in Fort Smith, Arkansas, although I'm a Montana native. I own a 2008 Suzuki B-King and can't get enough of it, although it's currently down for a flat rear tire. Anyway, glad to be here.

Welcome to the site!

I love the look of the B-king, but couldn't get around the price. Then Yamaha went out and made the V-max more expensive. It's a crazy world of beefed up pit bull power bikes that we live in. How does it ride?

The bike is awesome....I have friends who own the bike as well and they are changing out sprockets to get even more streetability out of it. Basically out of the box it's set up like a drag bike, all torque...it still tops out at about 158 because of the limiter, but of course that can be worked around, but at that speed the wind would blow you off the back. :D
