So Y is the b king more $$$

[Justyntym]

So why is the B king more expensive than the '08 Hayabusa?

It's the same "new" motor and the b-king is basically the same bike minus all the expensive plastics...so why does less cost more??

I think the 1K Gixxer is higher too

I've heard that it is because there will be a limted number of them produced.

From Suzuki Web Site:

1K $11,499
Busa 11,999
BKing ABS 13,499
BKing 12,899

Tooling for limited production bikes expected to sell lower numbers is expensive. They are trying to recover those costs by pricing it higher per unit.

[BusaCruise]

BKings are going for about 9K here....
just have your money arranged.

msrp is a bit subjective.... (Maybe Someone Retarded will Pay-it?

I have heard the throttle bodies are different on the Bking...so don't expect them to be exactly alike.

 

[spkerhed]

the heads are different valves or cams they said dont remember which ones it had something to do with more lowend torque on the BK

Costs more cause of the big pipes sticking out of it. I seen one in person. Nice looking from the front.

Obviously it's all the metal used in the oversized exhaust cans.
