SUZUKIGSX-1300BK B-King 2007 - 2008

　　In 2008, Suzuki Launched the GSX-1300BK B-Kink, a motorcycle that was rightfully touted as the Hayabusa's cousin, and that was more than enough to make things interesting. Basically, the B-King was a naked Busa with a modified version of the 1,340cc engine and a more manageable transmission.

　　The throttle and steering response was also tweaked to comply with the rigors of another riding style. The bike featured stronger low-end power and dual riding modes that allowed the bike to act casual or sportier.

　　At the 2001 Tokyo Motor Show, where Suzuki first introduced the B-king as a concept bike, it featured the Hayabusa 1,300cc engine but with a supercharger. At that point, everybody wondered how much time would pass until Suzuki threw the bike into production. The answer came in 2008, when Suzuki released the new B-King, but decided to drop the supercharger because the bike already had plenty of power.

　　The 2008 Suzuki GSX-1300BK B-King, took its thrust from a 1,340cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 182 hp at 9,500 rpm and 146 Nm (108 lb-ft) of maximum torque available at 7,200 rpm. With a six-speed transmission and a dry weight of 235 kg (518 lbs), the bike reached a top speed of 253 kph (157 mph).
