Looking for the B-King in Japan

So, I wanted to see if they had a Japanese bike name for the B-King. I wandered on to Suzuki's website in Japan and I found this bike listing that they sell in Japan.

No B-King. A few smaller versions of the bike.

If you look around their site - it looks like they have two electric bicycles.

Of course, I can't read Japanese so it is pretty hopeless.

Interesting... I don't see a Hayabusa there either.

Scooters

Maybe I'm missing the link to the sport bikes... Still looking around.

I don't think they have the BKing there. They have different bikes, for example, they have a GS1400 Nekked standard which doesn't exist in the US.

I saw that bike - it must be humungous... But a little bland looking.

Anything is going to look bland compared to the B-King. :laughing:

Well, I like unique... I'm so dead average... average height, average weight, married, bland bland bland....

I need something to be even remotely interesting. Otherwise I might turn in to a piece of wood. And someone would use me for a fire and then I'd just be carbon. :)
